The boots in the add are a lighter honey color than the ones I received in my order. The ones I got were a darker brown color.

Yesterday I've tried the boots at the store in my size (45 D), and while the length of the boots and the toe area were ok, the problem was the instep area which was too big (not snug enough).
The inconsistency in instep area size is the reason for only 3 stars.

I love the looks, fit and feel of these boots. There was no break-in period, so to speak. I normally wear a 13W, which is what I ordered. The only problem I have is with the stitching and coarseness at the top of the boots. It chafed my shin area. I tried a fix then I saw chafing on the other leg. I will try to fix or get the problem fixed because I want to wear these regularly.

This review was submitted as a sweepstakes or contest entry in exchange for an opportunity to win a prize.
I'll give three stars because I know the quality of Ariat is awesome, but I never received the correct order. I ordered a size 12 mens black boot and received size 7 women's brown boots so it wasn't even close to what I ordered. The return was handled promptly but unfortunately I didn't get to wear them to a wedding which is what I needed them for.

These are very nice boots and good looking too. I have another pair of Ariat Boots (The Heritage R) and they are a 9.5" medium. They fit great and I've had them for years. I naturally ordered the same size in the Ropers but they were too narrow and my toes felt a bit cramped. I called customer service and they were very nice. I decided to order a 10" medium. They fit me fine in width now and my toes are fine but now the heels are too loose!

Look good and the fit is pretty good but the seams on the tops are not flattened and covered and if I don't put moleskin on my left ankle I'd have a big blister from the very hard seam rubbing against it. Hoping I can soften it with time and some saddle oil.

Very heavy, yet the sole does not look lasting and so very disappointed that they were made in Indonesia, I purchased Ariat because I thought they were made in America, clearly they have sold out like so many others

I've worn this same style of Ariat boot forna out 12 years. This is my 3rd pair. Same model number, same size, same color, etc.
These new boots are visibally narrower than the previous pair and the toe is not as wide. The seams inside rub on my ankles, and now, after wearing them for 3 weeks, they are beginning to rub on my heels.
They are just not the same.

Love the boots. My old pair are really old and going strong.
But, these new boots are rubbing my ankle sides really bad, I mean deep rubs to the bone . Any ideas short of bandages on sides of ankles?
Thanks

I've worn the Heritage Roper round toe and wide square toe for years. My last pair, ordered a few months ago, were a real disappointment. Lighter weight uppers and poor quality stitching that is already unraveling. This new pair is not durable enough for horse farm work.

Unfortunately, we had to return the boots. They were the perfect color and well made but each shoe fit differently.

These boots started great and then developed a ridge I inside the heel pocket that is getting worse. I have tried to contact customer service with no response.

Sadly, I've worn a few times with thick socks, extra footbeds and even an ankle brace, but they are just too big. I ordered 8 wide which should have been right, but felt like it was a 9 ! Should have sent back right away but now am stuck with an expensive boot that doesn't fit. I had a pair bought many years ago in brown (men's size that fit) but after so many years they allow my ankle to turn. Don't know why the black ones I got recently are so big!

Was recommended to buy these by a few other ladies in construction. Turns out when you only go out in the field once a week these are great, however I wasn't so fortunate. I work in commercial construction walking upwards of 4-6 miles a day and these only lasted about 6 months. Started wearing two pairs of socks just for comfort because the soles were so thin. Might have just been because they're round toe (heard it's a round toe thing), but they what I would call "busted" and it would look and feel like I was walking the outer sides of my feet. Weren't as bad to break in as I've heard for ariats, but recommend taking your old pair of boots with you to work for a day or too as they do run snug for a few days. Overall would buy ariats again because I don't feel these are a great work boot- more of a hybrid or office boot.

I loved these boots but the soles are coming apart at the seams where they are stitched, I mean chucks are just coming off. I take care of my boots and condition the leather and don't do any rough work in the just basic outside work and everyday wear. They were great until this year.

I expect to be able to wear boots after a week with just socks. Not bandaids and socks. Then after a month - no socks required.
The interior of these boots leaves something to be desired. The interior seems are sharp and pretty thick. So using my Dremel to take the edges off.
Other than that, a quality product. Just not meant for the everyday wearer.

I have bought many pairs of these Ropers boots over the years, and I like them so much that I thought to buy another pair-(note: during Covid19..) in case this style would not be made anymore. Well... apparently, the dye color is a dark brown now- and also not distressed looking. Upsetting. I am returning them today, and hoping that with my friendly note, they will send the original color---- If so, I would buy 2 pairs. ( In case the new "distressed brown" is forever gone). The Ropers are GREAT boots! Comfortable, durable , and sweet looking!

I've always worn Ariats and love them but they are manufactured in China and in this current Covid crisis I certainly would prefer only to purchase items made in the US. I'll be looking for a new boot manufacturer for my next purchase.

I bought these boots about a year ago and love them so much I ordered another pair. I wear 11B (unusual) so the size availability was important. However the new pair arrived 1/2 size smaller, even though they were stamped 11B. I sent them back disappointed.

I was very disappointed in these boots. The EE wide felt like a medium width. It also felt like something was in the shoe under the ball of my right foot. These boots were not at all comfortable. They are going back to Zappos.

I purchased a pair of Heritage Ropers 3 years ago and absolutely love them. They are my daily footwear on the farm and in town. I just purchased another pair two weeks ago to be my "dress-up" boots and was very disappointed with the quality of the leather, stitching etc. There was a marked difference between the appearance in the leather in the two boots.They were not near the quality of my old boots and of course, were $40 more. I ordered the same size as the previous pair. I was able to put the left boot on without even touching the boot, my foot slid right in. I had to struggle with the right foot and it was too narrow, to the point that after wearing it for an hour, I took them off and decided to send them back. No more Chinese boots for me. The good news is Zappos return procedure is very easy. Thanks Zappos!

Need some new work boots and saw these were recommended by others in my field. I own two other pair of Ariat boots, both the same size. I ordered these in my normal size and was extremely disappointed to find these were way too small. It was impossible to get my feet in the boots.
