I had been looking for cowboy boots for months. I even looked at Zappos twice before buying. I realized they had the best price with the best options for me. The free shipping gave me the option of returning them if they didn't fit for no charge. That made my decision to order through them a plus. I have really narrow feet. The Ariat is cut to keep your foot in place better than other boots if you have narrow feet. I love my books. This style in Russet Rebel. They have made my summer and will definitely make my fall and many seasons to come.

I've had my eye on these for quite a while, and I'm so thrilled ot have finally ordered them! They're amazingly comfortable, to the point where I'd recommend them alongside other comfort brands like Keen or Born. I ordered brown oiled rowdy is more textured than it looks in the picture; it's not a smooth leather at all but has some pebbling. I've only worn the boots a couple times but the color is already starting to crease and crackle most pleasingly across the instep and toe. Great for that comfortable, rustic, worn in look.I had a heckuva time pulling these on the first time, even by cowboy boot standards, they were tough, but each time they've loosened up just a bit, to the point where now they're perfect. It still takes a fair bit of effort to pull them on and off, but that's how a cowboy boot should fit. There's no struggle, just effort. My feet are on the wideish side around the toe, and I ordered my usual size, 6.5, with great success. I think someone with an especially narrow foot might find these too wide, in fact. The heel is loose, as a cowboy boot should fit. The stitching is lovely, and absolutely impeccable. My calves are relatively large, and the bootshaft is still a bit on the loose side. You should be able to fit skinny jeans down in these without a problem! The toe on these is a bit boxier than I'd expected, but not at all stumpy. My other pair of boots are Lucchese, and they have a much pointier toe, so this was something to get used to! I quite like it though.In summary, if you already know and understand how cowboy boots should fit and feel, you'll be aware of what to expect. You'll also be pleasantly surprised by the padded, well supported footbed. If you've never worn similar boots before, though, do your research so you know what you're getting into. I love, love, love my new Ariat boots and can't wait to wear them several times a week. They're so comfortable, I can easily wear them for a day walking around the city or a long trek out in the country. They're the perfect everything boot!

I got these boots in the oiled leather. They\'re great boots, stylish, but but super comfortable and wearable.

Absolutely wonderful boots! Great color combo - I got them in Cosmic Copper. I have ongoing foot problems and never dreamed I could wear something like this; these are comfortable all day long, and have the best arch support I have encountered yet. Free shipping can’t be beat! They arrived within 24 hours of placing the order. What a wonderful company to do business with.

Pure Heaven! Oh my goodness: I think I just had a little foot-gasm! This is quite possibly the most comfortable thing that has ever been on my foot (and I'm hardcore about buying good-quality, foot-friendly shoes), and it's stinkin' cute to boot (ha!). Very nice quality leather (rivals Frye, for those of you in-the-know), has beautiful stitching, and the footbed is incredibly supportive & well-cushioned (it's almost like wearing a pair of running shoes). I typically am somewhere between an 8.5 and 9, but decided to order the 8.5 after reading the other reviews -- and it fits like a dream -- had no problems slipping them on, either. The style is awesome with jeans & is cute enough to wear with a skirt. I love the toe -- it's pointy enough to feel modern & sleek, without being painful -- and the overall design has great western attitude without feeling like garish clown shoes (like some designs are just too over-the-top -- if you're not at a rodeo or in Las Vegas, some designs would look pretty silly). I don't think I want to take them off, ever -- even at the beach :) I highly recommend!!

Additional Brand Information

In 1990, Ariat International co-founders Beth Cross and Pam Parker set out to create a new company and a new way of thinking about footwear for riders. They realized that traditional English and Western riding boots were stiff, heavy and hard on the feet – not very well suited for riding. Both riders with backgrounds in the athletic shoe industry, they realized the unique needs of equestrians – both in the saddle and on the ground – and the performance-enhancing benefits that could be brought to riding boots to give these athletes an edge.

So they assembled a group of top footwear engineers and designers, and set them on the task of creating the world's most technically innovative performance riding boots. They started by re-designing the outsole, rethinking the arch support system and finally taking a hard look at the suitability of "traditional" last shape and fit. While they were building the technology platform for Ariat boots, they were also talking to hundreds of top riders who helped in the design and development of the final product.

In 1993, Ariat shipped their first pair of boots, and today Ariat is the world leader in performance equestrian footwear, offering a full range of English and Western riding boots, work boots and casual footwear – plus new lines of performance apparel and accessories to fully outfit today’s equine athletes and equestrian-inspired lifestyle enthusiasts.

Whether you are a professional equestrian athlete or a novice rider, you will find an Ariat boot with the performance technology that is perfect for you. Ariat boots cushion the foot while stabilizing the heel and arch, dramatically reducing fatigue and stress to the feet, legs and lower back. This amazing technology can also be found in a variety of casual Ariat shoes – providing you with comfortable and stylish alternative for those relaxed, easy-going days.

I could not be more pleased with these boots, with Zappos, with the reviewers who told me to order a half-size smaller than usual. Why would anyone be surprised at the shininess of the patent leather (unless they don't understand what 'patent' means)? I would happily pay twice this price for these boots. They are supremely comfortable right out of the box, much lighter weight than I expected. Great arch support too. Now I have to go buy some skirts that will show off these boots to their best advantage!

Good-Looking, But Narrow and Heavy - Length true to size, but narrow and tight across arch. Boot also heavier than expected.

I received my boots this afternoon and I ABSOLUTELY ADORE THEM! This is my first pair of boots, so for anyone contemplating being a first time boot owner, buy ARIAT and through ZAPPOS! They certainly did not disappoint! I agree with the other reviews about ordering a 1/2 size to a size smaller! I LOVE Zappos as well, and was less apprehensive because I knew there would be FREE return shipping, but these babies are staying with me!

Look cheap - I have been searching for quite some time to find just the perfect cowboy boot, and my search continues. I was shocked at how shiny the patent leather is on these boots! So much so that they look cheap. Plus, I found the length to be about an inch past my toes, resulting in the boots feeling quite clunky. Hmmmmm, if only I could design my own boots... maybe then I could not only get the look I desire, but the fit I need.

These are lovely boots! I am very happy with my purchase! They’re fairly comfortable on the first wear without being broken into. I took the advice of other reviewers and ordered half a size down and while one is a little tight, the other fits perfect. I’m going to have the tight one stretched at the local cobbler. All in all, I’m incredibly happy with my new boots! And Zappos is great, too! Free upgrade to overnight shipping which really surprised me! I’ll certainly be shopping at Zappos for my next pair of Ariats and any other shoes I need!

I Want To Marry These Boots! Seriously! Even after reading all the other comments prior to placing my order, nothing prepared me for how lovely (not to mention extremely comfortable) these boots are! I've got friends plotting how to "steal" these boots from me! LOL I'm glad I followed the advice to get my true size (10)...I plan on purchasing another pair of Ariat boots in the near future. Thanks, Zappos!

Great boot! I love this boot. Definitely order down a half size for the perfect fit. I wear these every day!!! Note that there is information on resoling your boot when needed through mail order with Ariat, talk about great service! Also, as always Zappos has the best service, I got my boots fast.

Comfortable Boots - The shipping payment, processing, and shipping was fast and the service was great. I wear a 10 and bought a 9 1/2. They still fit a little big but I figure a 9 would have been too small. The boots are extremely comfortable and I was able to wear them out the first night I received them. Will buy from Zappos again!

Kick-butt boots - It took 24 hours to get my boots when I was expecting 4-5 business days for shipping, so that is always a plus. I wear 8 1/2 - 9 so I ordered an 8 1/2 size boot. The seams on the inside of the boot rubbed against my ankle at first, but after breaking them in, that went away. But I wish I would have ordered an 8 because they feel a little bigger now. I ordered Russet Rebel color which looks exactly as it does online...such an awesome boot!

Great boots! I bought these boots as an x-mas present for my wife. She's from New Mexico and likes a little western sensibility without going over the top, so the functionality and style were just right. She says they felt broken in after just a couple of days' wear.

Christmas present - I recently ordered The Ariat's Legend boots for my daughter's Christmas present. They were beautifully made and were comfortable from the first try on. She was extremely pleased with them and I felt very good about my purchase. The craftsmanship was excellent. I was extremely pleased with how quickly they arrived after the initial order.

Thrilled with this boot!!!!!! I have wanted a pair of Western boots for years, and finally saw these and had to have them. They are gorgeous and fit perfectly. Thankfully, I did heed the advice of other reviewers, and ordered a half size down. They fit perfectly and everyone loves them. Me especially!!! Zappos cannot be beat for customer service. They upgraded my shipping to expedited for free!! Zappos, you rock!!!
