I work on a horse farm and wear these boots at least 10 hours a day, 6 days a week. My feet and back are never sore after a day of work. Ihave gone through3 pairs of theregular terrains and finallytrieda pair of H2O. The regular boots only lasted 2-3 months, and I finally blew out this pair at 5 months. My only complaint is that the leather seperates from the rubber and continues to rip. The rubber on the heel also shreds pretty quickly from the horses stepping on them all day. I wish I could get more months out of these boots before they finally give out.

I absolutely love the comfort and style of these boots. I can wear them for hours and my feet never hurt. However, I bought them just abouta yearago,andthey have rippedat the inside seam on one boot. Iam in noway hard on my boots, so this is very disappointing considering how expensive they are.

I love these boots when I ride, muck stalls, or go hiking at my local state park. But the leather is cracking and so isthe rubber. They just simply fall apart. I wish theywouldlast a little longer for90shoes. Igot my normal size and they were a bit snug. I would still recommend getting a pair. They are wonderful.

I have been wearing them the last 4 yrs. They use to last about a year. Now, I get about 3 months wear out of them. Will be looking to seeif Ican find somethingelse foreveryday use and will use mynew onesfor riding only. They are no longer tough boots/shoes or very versatile due to the fact that they DON'T last. For riding 5 stars/, for everyday use 2 stars.

These boots are fun and look nice but they feel like they don't quite sit right on your foot. They are comfy but not high enough and tight enough aroundtheanklesto giveyou the same feeling as the english-style ariat paddock boots. I won't buy them again.

I love these boots. I am a landscaper and I wear my boots 6 days a week. I have week ankels and these boots hold up great. I have not rolledmyankel inoneyet. Myonly complantis that the rightfoot,rightoutsidebottom sole has come loose and now has a inch gap. I love the shoe other then the one issue. May try something else for the price and only getting 6 months out of them. Bought them a Quarter Horse Congress.

These are a lot more roommier on the inside than my last pair of Ariats. However, winters coming and I frequently weartwo pairs of socks whenit's super cold. We'll seehow it goes. I may notneedstwo pairsof socks with these boots. I do wish they fit as well as my last pair. While I would surely recommend Ariats to a friend, just maybe not this style.

I have been buying these exact boots for about 9 years. When I first started buying these boots they would last me about a year now they arecomingapart inthe crease wheremy feet bend near the base ofmy big toe, the last pair I bought started almost as soon as they were put into use. I have one leg shorter than the other due to an accident and need a good support type boot. The orthodontic lift I have to have put on the left boot costs about 75 dollars each time, that is why I try to buy a good quality boot that will last.

Great comfortable boots for riding and walking in all weathers.The downside is that the plastic toe guard always splits with age and thenletsinwater.Wouldbe better with a leathertoe guard.

I ordered a 7.5 but these fit like an 8.5 or 9. I actually gave them to my friend who normally wears an 8.5 and they fit her. So these are supercute and comfy butdefinitelysize down.

I have had these boots for over 2 years, and I bought them to ride and work with horses in. Unfortunately, they never broke in correctly. They arestillhardto geton to this day with regular use.Plus,theAriat logo on the bottom of one of the boots has been falling off. I also have these boots in brown bomber that I have had for over 4 years, and they are made much better besides some stitching finally falling apart after continuous use.

These boots are kinda bulky and stiff, so you have to wear them awhile to break them in, but Zappos service is the best!

I am returning these. I ordered 1/2 size down as reviews suggested and the left one is very tight. The black sole is also a little black and chunky looking for me.

Not my favorite -
To chunky. Fit too big. Go for the Probaby style! MUCH cooler!

Great comfort!
These boots are VERY comfortable. They slip on like a pair of slippers, however, I have had them not even a year, and the top part is beginning to discolor.

Not a great for Ariat -
These boots are very husky looking, and not super comfortable. I like the Pro (star babies) much better. Fat Babies are not ideal for riding. I have a small foot and I felt like a clown in these! Check out Pro babies before you buy these.

this would've been my second pair my first pair I loved them they fit perfect so I expected that on the second pair. It was so far from it they didn't fit right at all. The quality wasn't there at all. I'm sorry to have to write this, but I'm assuming you want me to be honest. I was very disappointed.

These were my third pair but now suddenly they seem to narrow. I don't have a wide foot so I don't know what happened. The pair before that cake y similar so it's not a one off. Thankfully calf size is still good but they are no longer as comfortable as they used to be.

Got a over a year ago and the the soles on the bottom of the boots are already wore out. I'm really disappointed at them because I've had got yours boits before. And never wore it like that. And remind you I did not wear fall summer long. I just started wearing again. Probably, in September.

I love these boots. They are comfortable and fit well, but the back of the right boot tore on me. They dont seem to hold up well.
