Customer Reviews Ariat Fatbaby Sheila

I love these boots. They are beautiful and sturdy. My only negative is that they are quite wide in the heel, so my foot slips up and down when I walk. Maybe they expect you to wear heavy socks with them?

These are super comfortable. I was disappointed by a slight color variation between the pair I purchased in the brown bomber color. Not a big enough deal to return them. I am on my feet all day at work and these boots are incredibly comfortable. No break in time required. They provide much better traction than the standard pointy toe cowboy boot.

Gorgeous -- well fitting boot. True to size. I recommend this boot for the city cowgirl. I wore them hauling hay and scuffed up the finish on one boot! Still love them!

While these felt very cushioned and comfortable, I should have ordered a half size smaller than what I usually wear in boots. They were too roomy in the toe box and slipped a lot on my heel when I walked. (A little heel slippage is normal on a cowboy boot until the sole is broken in, but this slipped too much.) In addition, I wasn't completely pleased with the Brown Bomber picture. Based on the photo, I was expecting a sand-colored light brown, but these were kind of a dirty brown, almost with a slight greenish tone to it.

They fit great and seem super comfortable. I have issues with the achillies tendon part of the ankle and boots and these seem as if they will not agitate it.

Great boots! I compared these against the Justin Gypsy. The leather on these is softer, and the overall fit was better for me - though I did have to go up half a size in either. Just wish the sole was available in brown, like the Justins, but that's a very minor detail. Glad I splurged on these...hope to get a lot of wear out of them!

I love these boots but they seem to run a little large. I normally wear a 7.5 in most shoes other than dress shoes. I bought these in the 7.5 and they slip on my heel more than they should. The left one feels fine, but the right one is awful. I have to wear super thick socks or wear 2 pair of socks. They feel great in the foot, but the ankle is where I’m having issues. I thought that it was just because I wasn’t used to this style of boot, so I have worn them a few times and can no longer return them for a size smaller. If you have narrow heels or have never worn or aren’t sure what size to get, have your foot measured before you buy.

Great boots, very comfy, plenty of room for socks. If you are going to be wearing these for riding, check the soles! Some colors are stirrup-safe (the smoother ones) but the deep lugged version of the sole absolutely is not, and will increase your risk of getting hung up in the stirrup and dragged.

I am so happy with my Ariat boots! They're really comfy and very cute! I've noticed people looking at them. Have only seen one similar pair of boots in the city. I think they're pretty true to size. Oh, and my boyfriend thinks they're really cute too! Wish the toe wasn't quite as round but I still love them.

Ariat Fatbaby is the most comfy boot I own... Ariat boots are well made enough to put up with the abuse I put them through. I am disabled and have a poor gate. I usually wear most shoes out quickly. Fatbaby boots are nice and wide. My toes are usually squished in boots but these give them room in the toe and accommodate my orthotic inserts They also have lots of style. I have 2 pairs of the black Fatbaby’s that I love. My older, more beat up pair for everyday and the other I keep around for going out. I got this pair in "teal" after wanting them for a year. They were on sale. They fit well but are stiffer than my other Fatbaby’s. The croc embossed makes the shoe stiffer. They are still comfortable I'm just afraid to wear them on a long outing for fear they will become uncomfortable. I am going to wear them on short outings until I am confident they are broken in. Even though these boots are comfortable I only gave them a 4 because Keen Bronx shoes are more Comfortable and my first choice if I am going to be on my feet all day. Ariat Fatbaby is my Second most comfortable shoe. (Fluevog angel boots are now my 3rd) I hardly wear the Fluevog now. Fatbaby boots are more comfy and easier to put on than my Fluevog’s. Fatbaby boots look better with a skirt or dress pants than the keen though. I can’t wait to wear them with my matching blue party dress! It’s going to be a wardrobe challenge to wear these boots often because of the unusual colors. I’ve got my eye on the Gembaby and Babybuck. I hope Ariat doesn’t stop making these hip, wider round toed styles.=0)

Love my boots - I have a pair of the lime green Baby Phats and I love them. I did not have to break them in. I also have a wide foot and they fit great. That’s why I am buying another pair. I did get a small chip though and I was surprised that would happen.

This is the second pair of Fatbabies I have ordered from you. The first pair was defective in that the right boot was much narrower than the left. The second pair sent were much more true to size.
