Customer Reviews Ariat Heritage Roper

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 Rick

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.

It did not have that nice patina I was hoping for. Stiff leather.. I sent them back

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.

These are just awful I knew they were gonna be bad but not this bad

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.

Incredibly stiff and difficult to get on and off. Fit fine once I was able to get them on, so its not a size issue. Really wanted to like them, but had to return.

I've had Ariat boots for over 30 years. I ordered the same boot to replace my old worn out set. Using the size printed on the boot I made my order. The new boots are more narrow and stiffer than my Oder pair. I probably will not order any more because the quality has declined.

Worst communication ever. This company does not care about its customers. All you get are rubber stamped replies to emails and reviews. My husband loves the boots and they nice but the company brings the rating down. Here I thought a female operated business would be better. Never again.

Had an older pair for 5 or so years and they were by far my favorite boots. They came apart recently and so I wanted a new pair. I ordered a pair and got them but there was something wrong with the left boot in the arch. I returned them and tried to get another pair from a store and that was a whole process too, order got canceled several times before I actually got them, and when I get them it's the same problem. I'm really disappointed that I can't have my favorite boots again. The older model was superb, but there seems to be something wrong with the newer ones. I very sadly can't recommend them anymore.

Beware, If you have wide large feet please skip these. I got an 12EE and after a day of use I felt pain for over a week. They look nice tho, just never reach for them.

I have a pair of Quickdraw's in 10B which fit really well (I'm just not a big fan of square toes). I had assumed that these would fit about the same- not so! The heel cup is wider (wider than my Heritage Stockman's in 9 1/2D) & the overall fit is 'looser". As others have mentioned, the seams on the inside of the boot have eaten my ankle bones raw (compared to my other Ariat's- the seam looks wider/bulkier). I do like the look of these boots & the fit may improve with break-in (if I can wear them that long)- we'll see.

Boots look "ok". Sized smaller and narrower than other shoes. Worse thing is that the inside thick seams rubs against your ankles making them very uncomfortable and sore skin. I had to stretch them out by stuffing towels in them for weeks just to be able to wear them. Unfortunately, I wore them before I could exchange them. I would not buy these again.
