Customer Reviews Ariat Heritage Western R Toe

I've owned these for few years and the boots are still in excellent shape all around except for the pink lining which is peeling, flaking and making a general mess every time I remove my boot. I have another pair of Fatbabys that also have a colored lining and it is sealed and flat like the day I bought them. Maybe I just got a defective pair? These boots are the most comfortable shoes I own but I only wear them around the house and for outside work now because of the mess.

I bought these about 9 months ago and the tred is almost completely worn off. I'm hard on boots, but I expected more from them since I've been purchasing from Ariat for years. They are nice on the eyes but I wouldn't reccommend them for barn work.

Bought a pair about 2.5 years ago and they had not much tread on the sole brand new. They got decent traction but I found myself sliding on gravel when walking on pavement and forget wet weather traction unless you are walking on very clean flat concrete. After about a year the soles are smooth as butter so no traction in wet grass or mud or really anything. Very comfortable boot however, I swap the insoles for some gel ones which helped I'm sure but the soft flexible uppers on the boot make them extremely comfortable.

Boots run small so order a half size longer than what you normally wear. Cute boots though.

Love the boots and the way they look. Fit was a bit snugger than the last pair I bought a few years back. Had to go up a half size. Hopefully when they get broke in they will live up to the fatbaby name and widen out like my last pair.

I was given these as a gift, and unfortunately they don't fit. I have a wide forefoot but generally a low volume foot and skinny ankles. I am usually a US mens 12, and I got the 12 EEWide. the toe box is perfectly wide enough, but the heel is so wide my foot just slides around in the boot. Maybe if I got a US11 EEWide they would fit better. I have tried a few different ways to keep my heel down,but since the majority of the boot is pliable leather, they have been unsuccessful. If not for the giant heel pocket, these would be great boots for both casual and outdoor rec/work. 10/10 style and comfort 5/10 for personal fit.

I tried them on and with the waterproofing it was too narrow. I have a previous pair that is really getting worn out.....many years... and that pair was fine

I bought these boots last summer in teal. I love the color. It's vibrant and I get compliments often. However, the boots fit extremely tight across the top - so much so that I have to urge myself to wear them more often. I have 4 pairs of Ariats and I love them all except for this one. They are always super comfortable from the start with no need to "break them in" except for this pair. Slowly over time they seem to be getting a little better and stretching out more so they're not so uncomfortable but it's been a long time coming.

I borrowed a pair of Ariat hikers from a friend when I went to Iceland for 11 days. I loved them, rode for days, and hiked all over. No blisters, lots of room for warmer socks. I decided to buy a pair of my own. Have to say I do like them, but disappointed on the padding. The older pair has a nice soft fluffy top and extra padding in the boot, also the tongue of the boot is very thick, could not even feel the laces. Ariat must have decided to save a few pennies and cut down on that. I find the boot now moves around more, and I had to find something to put under the tongue to stop the laces digging in. It's to bad they decided to do that.. Went from an amazing boot you could wear all day, to one you wear to ride, put your horse away, and take them off.

UPDATE: I wore my new Brooklyn's on Christmas Eve and noticed that they're not as cushy as all my other Ariats. When I got home, I pulled them off and reached inside to pull the footbed out to inspect it. Turns out the Brooklyn doesn't have the REMOVABLE Ariat ATS footbed! They have footbeds but they look different and they're glued down to the sole. What the heck? That was most definitely not advertised when I bought these boots. Disappointed!

I had the regular Terrains and they lasted over a year. I decided to replace them with the H2O since they are waterproof. After less than a year the toes are separating. I do not wear these in the summer, so a year is not a year of constant use. I am going to order another pair because they are comfortable and they don't have those huge lugs on the soles like other boots. I hope these will last longer or else I will look else ware next time.

This was my first pair of boots - ever. Ariat was highly recommended. Took a bit to break in, but once I did I loved them. I wear them for working around our small farm (nights & weekends). Now, about 9 months in, the stitching on the top of one boot has come out. I do nothing that rubs the top of the boots - just walking & squatting down. I already bought another pair - I hope they hold up better. For the price they should last more than a year.

I bought this boot and had to return it because the boot isn't very tall where the foot is. I couldn't get it on easily and it hurt my feet but they are very nice looking boots and seems like they are well made.
