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.

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.

Between my wife and I we have had y pairs of Ariat Terrain boots. They are excellent when new. Lightweight, very comfortable and excellent for walking. But they only last for 2 years of moderate use at best. Then they start falling apart. The soles detach from the leather on the sides. The toe caps crack and start detaching. They never last long enough for the soles to wear out. But they are great while they last.

Are these a return? Fresh out of the box and the toe is scuffed. Pretty disappointing

I had to go down multiple sizes. I also recieved multiple boots where the stitching was missing. I love the appearance of these boots so much but it should also be noted that it will not be possible to get them reheeled there for not a good investment for myself.

I have purchased this boot many times, it is my go to , the fit is always spot on and offer great arch, support and have never had an issues with them until recently. I purchased a pair back in December, they started peeling at the toes, I was using cleets on them so I thought it was that. I bought a second pair in March, they look nice enough to wear to work (I work in an office setting) I babied these. Only wore them to work, these boots never saw a hike but they too are peeling on the toe and actually starting to come apart. Very disappointed to say the least.

They fit just fine, but straight out of the box they're not just scuffed they're scratched. To the point it looks like a cat toy. Other review photos don't look this distressed..

These boots have seriously dropped in quality and the fit has changed. I have this same model of boot from like 20 years ago (eek) and they look almost brand new. I recently tried 4-5 pairs of the Fatbaby Western I and II and returned them all. The leather feels cheap and thin, and the boots lack the firm structure and weight they had in the past. The sizing/fit is weird - am either stepping out of them or they're too tight, even with the half sizing. I contacted customer service for recommendations of other styles that might be better for me, but I never heard back. Was an enthusiast of this brand, but sadly no more.

I prefer a wide shoe but can usually fit medium with no problem, these are pretty narrow and particularly difficult to get on. Might just need breaking in, but I'm not optimistic. Material (especially the sole) feels cheap and they came slightly scuffed on the suede and with little stains on the metallic. Was expecting something much nicer for the price.
