Customer Reviews Ariat Fatbaby

They are awesome! Comfy from the first time I put them on! I love them!

Absolutely love these. They're great for anyone who is on their feet most of the time. They're just slightly big, but I ordered my regular size because I want to wear a regular sock with them.

While people tell me these are cute, I find them very practical. From mucking to riding, these boots do the job. Though I have WIDE feet and would like the option of a wider boot, these do seem to run wide. They are sturdy and tough boots; they do take a while to break in, but I wouldn't hesitate to buy another pair.

I tried 5 other pairs of western riding boots before deciding on this pair. They are very comfortable and I'm going to order another pair a half size larger for winter riding (to accommodate thicker socks and toe warmers). Very comfy all day shoes and barn boots. They have a nice spur shelf. Highly recommended. They do need a little wearing in around the ankle so just wear thicker socks.

Super comfortable but need to break them in. I have a high arch so getting my foot in at first requires a big push but I know these will stretch out so I highly recommend them, especially for the price!

I bought these boots about a year and half ago, and they are absolutely my favorite pair of barn boots. I was concerned about breaking them in when I bought them because I was right in the middle of a summer job that kept me at the barn about 8 hours a day. After the first couple of days of breaking them in, they were great. These are still my boots of choice whenever I have to go to the barn and they will be with me again for their third summer of camp! Even though our puppy chewed the tops on one of my boots a little, I still wear them as much as possible.

I normally wear size 10 and I swam in those. I ordered a half-size down, as so many have suggested. These 9.5s fit like a dream, which means these run BIG, folks! Oh, but I love them. The russet is a great color. A little stiff, sure, but I expected that and trust these will loosen up. My only concern is -- will this sole provide traction in the snow?

This is a great boot, very comfy. I had to replace my original pair when hubby accidentally sent the first ones to the donation box by mistake! Oh well, at least someone will have some awesome Ariat's! Aside from tennies, these are the most comfortable shoes I own. Highly recommended. They run true to size, I wear an 8 in tennis shoes and an 8 in these. Oh, one more thing, I have a high instep and these are a tad tight but they do break in well after about two uses, so bear with them and they will be great.

This is a cute, sexy looking boot, no doubt about it. I loved the look on the site and I loved it when it arrived. One little hitch- I did have to break them in because of a piece of leather on the top left side of the right boot. It rubbed against my leg and hurt so much I had to break them in with a pair of tall socks to protect my leg. And the heels slip a bit so I have to wear short socks with them but I have narrow heels. Other than that, I give these boots a thumbs up. They look great with leggings and a short skirt or a short dress for a cute, sexy look.

I looked for a while before I settled on these boots. I wear a size 11 and the pointed toe boots made my feet look huge. I decided to try this round toe style. Not only do I love how they look, but they are also super comfortable. The sole provides good arch support and cushion. Love them!

I love my Ariat's they are so comfortable. I grew up riding horses, and always had Ariat paddock boots. Then a few years ago I bought my first western pair. Identical to these that I just purchased again. What I like most is that they are sportive and very comfortable. I end up standing for long periods every day, and they keep my feet happy. I wear them with dresses too, for that cute southwestern look. Oh and a great tip that I learned from having horses for years and all the leather tack. Clean your leather goods with Murphys Oil Soap. It makes your leather last longer and conditions it too. Your boots will last longer when you take care of the leather. And especially if you live in a wet climate. Protecting your leather is important. Then they will last a long time. My last pair lasted a good 4 years of constant use in sometimes rather harsh conditions.

These Russet Rebels are awesome! For me they are true to fit in length and width. My toes really appreciate the round toe box. The arch support is perfect for me, but I have low to average arches. The soles are cushioned and bouncy without being squishy. Like all new boots they are a bit stiff at first, with some heel slip. I applied leather conditioner and worked the leather, bending the toe and heel areas. Then started wearing around the house - squatting down on my toes and flexing my feet so the heel area would work in. After a few hours the heel slip was much improved and they felt comfortable enough for shopping or work. I highly recommend these boots!!

These boots are awesome as are all Ariat Fatbaby boots. They fit well, have great support and look sharp.

So...do people not realize these are legit cowgirl boots? Like...you ride horses with them, clean out stalls, etc. They are an amazing boot that has great quality. For those who complain about arch support and heaviness...they're cowboy boots for heaven's sakes!

Beautiful boots, great price. The photos on the website are so clear that you know exactly what you are getting, no surprises here. I think they run true to size. I say I think, because I am a size 9, but lately I have been needing a 9.5 in some styles, but I ordered a nine in these and they are quite good. Very roomy in the width, but I like that a lo

I love this boot! I have bought 3 pairs already--in different colors. The first pair I bought, got worn out because they were so comfortable that I'd work in them. They're durable, comfortable and stylish!

I ordered my usual size 9 and was quite pleased. They are slightly roomy, so with a pair of boot socks (recommended), they fit like a glove. Wore them comfortably all day the first day I put them on. The "pull-up straps" were a little scratchy against the skin on my leg. That's why I'd recommend the boot socks.

A great cowboy style boot for wider feet. Economically priced quality leather boot. And Zappos great customer service.

My daughter (17) tried these boots. Very comfortable. She wears them for 8 hour shifts working in a garden center. Very cute, too!

When I am with my horses at the barn I need a solid comfortable boot. This is the boot! Comfortable and stylish. I highly recommend these boots to anyone -- horse rider or not your feet and legs will love you!

From the looks, I was skeptical about these boots, as they look like a sneaker-boot hybrid. These are the most comfortable shoes I've ever had out of the box. I can wear them all day long on my feet at work, and I find that they're every bit as comfortable as sneakers. Yes, yes, yes. I can't say enough good about these. If Zappos had them in other colors I'd own every one. That said, I wear a 7.5 or an 8, I'm glad I went with the 7.5. Unless I was wearing them with nothing but really thick socks I would have been swimming in 8s.

These boots were comfortable right out of the box. They feel great and look great. The toe box is wide enough to be comfortable but not so wide that they look like Earth shoes. The arch support is so good that I was able to wear them at work all day without any discomfort.

Got these last night with a pair of Ranch Baby's that I ordered (they're comfy, too) and I love them. Cute and stylish, very comfy and true to size!
