I love these boots! They are cute, stylish, and comfortable in true Ariat fashion. They're flat-ish on the bottom, though.

These have great support. I have ankle issues and find it hard to find shoes that are comfortable and supportive. I can wear these all day and my feet don't hurt. I wear them as casual shoes. I did order a 1/2 size larger (9 1/2) and they fit perfect. I normally wear a 9.

Love them! So comfortable! I have a high instep and boots that fit are hard to find. These are a dream.

Absolutely love my boots. Most comfortable boot ever. Only problem is, I need taller socks. The pulls on them are a little rough on bare skin.

Cute, "funky" style. Haven't gotten to wear on an all day outing, but so far very comfortable. I ordered a half size smaller than usual and fits great.

Cute and comfortable boots. As with pretty much all Ariat shoes I've had, there was virtually no "break in" time. One of my friends who has the same shoe size as me tried them on, too, and was pleasantly surprised her foot would go in since she has a high arch.

I just received these boots after ordering them yesterday. I have to say, my purchase was heavily influenced by the positive reviews on the site. They are on my feet as I type, and I have to say they are the most comfortable boots upon first wearing that I have ever purchased. Trust me. I am a self-admitted boot-a-holic, so I know. I wear everything from combat boots to high fashion boots, and these are going to be my favorite pair for general all around use!

I learned about these boots from a coworker and she brought hers in for me to try on. She had had foot surgery and raved about the comfort. I wanted a pair of comfy girly, rider tough boots with a low heel to wear on the motorcycle. Wore them to Rolling Thunder in D.C. this year (2010) all day and no blisters, no pain and alot of compliments and questions from other riders. True to size, tried them on after a full day on my feet, swollen ankles and all. No problem.

These boots are the cutest ever with the possible exception of my Justin Gypsies that I also purchased from Zappos. I have had a lot of trouble finding pull-on boots that work for me due to an extremely high instep. I wear a size 10 and often the shoes I buy in medium width are very tight at first, but the fit felt great right out of the box. The comfort range of four stars is due to the arch support. For me it is moderate, because I have an extremely high arch, but it would probably be perfect for people who don't have that particular issue. The toe box leaves plenty of room, which is also something that I appreciate. Having a size 10 foot like me, wearing a boot that makes your foot look like a six or seven is a definite plus!

These boots are great! They are so comfortable and fit perfect. I have wide feet and boots are often to tight. I am a fan for life. I have a pair of Fryes that hurt my toes after about an hour. These Fatbaby boots rock.

Absolutely love them. I read a review that something like the first time i put them on felt like I had been wearing them forever. This could not be more true. Plus they are absolutely beautiful. I get lots of compliments. Don't need to wait for them to stretch before they feel good.

These are the cutest, most comfortable pair of cowgirl boots I have ever owned. I have one tiny complaint: the lable on the inside is really rough and scratches my leg if I'm not wearing tall socks and has ruined two pairs of leggings. I fixed it with some cloth tape, but if you get a pair, be aware of this issue. Other than that, I get compliments every where I wear them and they are comfortable enough to wear all day. They feel like tennis shoes in the foot bed. And since the toes aren't pointy, the toe bed has plenty of wiggle room. No sacrificing comfort for style this time!

So, *so* comfy. Ariat Fatbabys are roomy without being sloppy. I got these following a broken leg when I had so much swelling in my foot I couldn't get into my paddock boots. I thought they'd just be temporary but I still wear them all the time. I wear an 11 and these fit pretty true to size and despite being chunky actually make my feet look a little smaller. If you're looking to buy a pair to use for riding, make sure you look at the soles. Ariat makes a very deep-lugged sole that is *NOT* stirrup safe, and a smoother one that is.

I have wide feet and these boots (Ariat Fatbaby) are just perfect! I stand on my feet all day long and for the last two weeks I have worn these boots every day. I don’t want to take them off. Very comfortable - plenty of room for my toes, orthotics and a pair of thick socks. They look great and are not wimpy. I hope they last a long time. I usually wear size 9 boots but I followed other reviewers advice and ordered 8 1/2. I am glad I did. As usual, Zappos was outstanding!

This is the first pair of Ariat shoes/boots I have ever purchased. I ordered my regular size and fit GREAT!!! These were comfortable from the minute I put them on. I love Lavender, so these boots are perfect. I also like how they will just look like black boots with jeans. They also look exactly like the picture. I would recommend these to anyone who wants a FUN pair of boots

After an accident that left me with nerve damage and permanent swelling in my left leg and foot, finding sneakers, let alone shoes or boots has been futile - until now. I bought a pair of the Ariat Fatbaby boots based on customer(s) reviews praising their comfort despite bunions, larger than average calf size and other orthopedic problems. Taking the customer(s) reviews and Zappos’ fabulous return policy into account I gave these a try and can honestly say I’m hooked. These boots are awesome! Not only are they comfy, but adorable. Even my husband thinks their sexy. Thanks Zappos! And thank you to other reviewers that helped me make the decision to buy. I’ll be buying more pairs in the future. SIDE NOTE: I bought my regular size (8), and though they are very slightly looser than most 8s, I think I made the right size choice.

Bought these about a month ago and have been wearing them since. They're cute, but not flamboyant, with the jeans tucked in, and quite unassuming with the jeans over the shaft. Very comfortable! I ordered size 10 standard width. They felt a little clunky at first but quickly broke in.

My daughter received these for Christmas and really loves them. Ariat is a great boot and such a variety of boots on Zappos. I ordered them on a Sunday afternoon and they were shipped out Monday evening. I had them shipped to my mother-in-law's so my daughter wouldn't find them. My mother-in-law (who is also a frequent Zappos shopper) couldn't believe how quick they came in time for Christmas! Thanks Zappos.

Happy Fatbaby Momma -
In my review the comfort is awesome. I wear them at least two times a week!!! From the first time I wore them it didn't even take a breaking them in, they were comfortable right off the bat!!! I am interested in getting another pair, but will wait a while.

Oh Baby!
I ordered the Fat Baby's on monday and just received them today (wednesday). I normally wear between a 7 to 7 1/2. I got the 7 and they fit really well. So far I haven't had the chance to try them with thicker socks. They may be a bit tight if I do that, but I can't believe how comfy these boots are! I got these for my riding class and can't wait for my next session.

For a pull on boot, this is the most comfortable boot I have ever owned. I have a wide foot and a high instep and there is room in this boot to accommodate both. It isn't a high fashioned boot, but it works for me.

This is the cutest boot. My girlfriend has a pair and uses them for barrel riding her horse, they are THAT durable...I want them for boot scootin' around town, shopping, errands, school, whatever...I would encourage a thicker sock, but other than that they are really comfortable.

Looking at all your other reviews encouraged me to buy this boot. I'm not at all disappointed. This is the coolest, comfortable boot. I bought the red, it's fun for casual attire at work or play. I've received a lot of compliments on them!!

THE 5 STAR LOOK -
The "Ariat Fatbaby" boots have a great look, comfort and style. They fit true to size and this boot for a person with a thicker calf was a perfect match. I would recommend this boot without reservation. JL
