I ordered a 7.5 wide and very glad I did. Im very happy with the fit and the boot itself and color. They were stiff to begin with but I steamed them over the stove and now they fit comfortably. Ive received many compliments on them!

I love these boots. This is the 3rd time I have bought this style, and have been happy each time. They last a very reasonable length of time and hold up to daily use. They are waterproof around the seams for several years.
I would definitely refer Ariat to my friends and family.

The boots fit good and look good. The inside seam was not flat and rubbed a blister on my ankle.

The negative responses I have are due to my own lack of paying attention to exactly what I ordered. I needed a size 9&1/2 ordered a 10. The calves of the boots don't form to my legs the snug way I was hoping for, more like I have hula hoops around my calf. I do not like at all. Then there's the tread, the heel is slick and the soul of it almost is too. I was hoping for a everyday pair of form fitting boots without all the bling. These were it but it's not tickled my fancy to keep them.

Great comfort and functionality. Bought them to replace my tactical boots that I wear working on the ambulance. Have never had an issue with traction and seem to be very well designed and well made. Sized wide but are just slightly narrower than I would like.

Boot construction seems excellent. B width still not narrow enough in heel. After serious break-in the 'loose heel fit' hopefully will resolve itself.
Overall, I am pleased with the boots and would recommend them to anyone with a narrow foot.

I bought these to replace and older pair of Ariat's I had. I use these for the horse barn, ride in them, muck stalls, any other chore at the barn. I really like them, they are soft and supple. My only compliant is that they run small. I am a true size 10 and I had to end up purchasing a size 11. I do not understand but glad I went to a local dealer and tried them on first. I have had them for a few months and they are holding up real well. I did buy waterproof stuff and put them on it just in case. My last boots were destroyed because I did not apply the waterproof stuff.

A handsome simple design but for me the heel area was a little too loose and I had too much heel lift. THe C width was great for me. Ordered true to size.

I've had a pair of these boots for about 20 years. The pair I've had are what is shown in the picture on the website. I would describe them as "slightly darkened natural leather." I wanted to replace what I had with the same boots. There were only two choices, so - going by the pictures - I selected the one that looked like the boots I had. What I received looks nothing like the picture, but is consistent with the description "Distressed Brown." I'm okay with the color and will keep the boots, but other buyers should be aware that if they select the Distressed Brown boot, it will NOT look like the picture. It is more of a milk chocolate or chocolate brown. Seems like an easy fix on Ariat's part... just take a picture of the current Distressed Brown boot and swap it with the one being used! This is a very good boot. It's both comfortable and rugged. I've certainly gotten my money's worth out of the first pair, and expect the same from the second. I did put a pair of Dr. Scholl's insoles in them to take the comfort up a notch, and expect to do the same with the new ones.

This is a boot that just fits to your foot, but it’s plain. I tried 2 pairs with more style and found they make a much more comfortable footbed. West Bound was markedly more comfortable with plenty of toe room. I recommend ordering half size smaller, 4 out of 4 Ariats I had to go smaller.

The Heritage Stockman boot was my go to boot for years, but now they've discontinued it apparently. So sad! I really liked it better than this one, style and fit-wise. I guess this one will have to do, until I find something better. And, what is the deal with all of the square toe styles? Am I the only one that prefers an almond/round toe in a roper style?

My husband loved the boots. The Only issue was he went to put them on (the first time mind you) and the boot strap broke. He had not even worn them once. But he still loves them and said the fit was perfect! I was just sad that they didn't even hold up for the first time placing his foot in the boot.

This is a great boot overall. It is stiff and takes some time to break in. I ordered a wide and it's not that wide. The leather overall is quite stiff. I've been wearing it almost every day for the last 10 days and it's still not broken in yet. If you have wide feet the C width is not very wide. And, I like the boot.

First, I ordered an 8 C (wide)! WHY is this one of the very few women's footwear items that is available in a wide!?!?! This boot fits so perfect that all I have to do is step into them like loafers and wear them all day long!!!
Only 4 stars because no where on the website describing the finish does it say whether or not these boots are water proof!! They should be. Also, the finish is "designed" to scratch!! (RME) Seriously?? Boots, especially work boots, scratch and get distressed naturally!! (RME again).
I will definitely buy Ariat boots again. This is pair #8 in my eclectic collection of boots!! (Smiley face)

These were my first western boot purchase after years of field and paddock boots in the jumper world. I purchased both these and the Round-Up Bermuda's to compare and these were a million times better looking! The biggest issue I have is the fit between the two boots. My right foot is ~slightly~ larger than my left so one shoe is always a tiny bit snugger, but generally unnoticeable. I normally wear a W 6.5 or 7 and always a 6.5 in Ariat boots. Oddly enough, the right boot of these is incredibly comfortable with just enough room, but the left is horribly tight, even painful, to put on even after a couple weeks. If anything, it should be the other way around. I actually exchanged my first pair because of this and it's the same thing in the new ones! Super odd since I haven't seen any others with the same experience... They're very nice to look at though, I'm curious how they will hold up seeing as they get marked-up very easily.

I bought them online, received and started wearing them. The size is between too wide and true to size, I hesitated to send them back and regret I did not order 2 sizes to send back the one that does not fit but finally kept them. I love their simple sturdy look, but I wonder how to protect them as there are no indication and they seem to be stained or scratches easily which is not what I expect from sturdy boots. Should I waterproof spray them?

This was a really attractive boot--weathered/distressed and rugged-looking. Leather was high quality and the bot was well made. Unfortunately, it's not that magic boot that looks stylish while NOT pressing on my bunions--toe box was too shallow/narrow for this wearer. If that's not your issue, however, this would be a great addition to a shoe wardrobe--great with jeans or skirts or whatever!

Have had boots about 2 weeks. Extremely comfortable. Only problem encountered is the inside seam on right boot rubs inside of ankle. Another pair of Ariat rompers does the same thing. Great as long as I remember to put band aid on ankle.

This is a great-looking boot; subtle detail at the top makes it more interesting without being showy or over-the-top Western. I wear a 9W in a running shoe, and the 9W in this boot fit perfectly. Alas, the leather was stiff over the instep and in the shaft, so I was sort of "clop-clopping" all over the house trying these on. There's a possibility the leather would soften, but I have painful feet and joints and think I could tolerate the breaking-in process. For people with normal feet, think this would be a versatile wardrobe addition.
Just a note, if the manufacturer reads these reviews--I really appreciate the packing used to keep the boot's shape. I want to return to Zappos as nicely packed as I receive them, and the cardboard insert with the finger hole makes it SO much easier to remove/replace! Very thoughtful detail.
