Customer Reviews Ariat Western Heritage

I've had these boots for over a year now. They are hands down without question the greatest and most comfortable pair of footware I've ever owned. Not even my combat boots or my Nike PT shoes can compare. All of my other shoes and boots are now collecting a nice patina of dust. The only two things that I wish was better is the traction in mud and especially snow and a bit more durability and rigidity in the square toe. But other than those two things they are truly great and anyone who spends a lot of time in work boots needs a pair of these. Oh and they look great as well. I will be buying Arial boots in the future!

I bought these boots a little over a year ago! I wear them to rodeos all the time and love them! They look brand new and are very comfortable

I picked up a pair of these not too long ago and am totally in love. Admittedly, after years of wearing Ariat's paddock boots, this is my first pair of their cowgirl bootsand the style, performance, and comfort isn't any different than the paddock boots I love so much! I purchased the Russet Rebel and the picture is true to the leather color, quality, and detail stitching. Though, the leather isn't nearly as shiny (as the picture), is very soft and acquires a loved-looking patina quickly (which, I personally love and I do treat my boots pretty regularly with a leather moisturizer). The leather will probably stretch a little, but not enough to worry me. The rounded toe is extremely versatile, and the stacked rubber heel gives me just enough height (though, can be a little tippy if you're a clumsy human like myself). I will say that the fit is a little funky for me - I'm pretty much an 8.5 across the board in terms of sizing (Ariat paddock boots included), and the fit on these boots has a bit of mixed reviews, so I figured I'd go with my regular size and err on the side of caution. From what I can tell, the fit on this boot runs a tiny bit large, mostly in the heel though. To remedy the situation, I purchased a pair of gel heel inserts and placed them beneath the ATS insert and it's pretty much fixed the situation. I think that I'm somewhere right between an Ariat 8 and 8.5, so I'd rather go with an 8.5 than the 8 (because crunched toes suck). Though, I did get to try on a 9, and the fit is pretty similar to the 8.5, just a bit more loose in the toe box. So, who knows - I'd say try going a half size down if you've got narrow-to-normal width feet. All in all, I am really excited about these boots and looking forward to growing old with them!

I bought a pair about a yr ago at my local Tractor Supply. Love them, still in excellent condition.

I bought these a couple months ago and am in love with them!!!! If these were the only thing I had to wear I would be happy!!!!!

I have had these shoes over a year and they still look great. At first I wore them around town but now I wear them for trail riding. They've been in mud and water and clean up good. They are comfortable for all day wear.

I have had these boots for roughly 6 months now and they are absolutely amazing. very comfortable and durable leather doesn't peel like my old Justins. I did swap out to custom Dr Scholls insoles but that is not due to the original soles being uncomfortable. I have been in the Miliary for awhile and have worn plenty of boots. Take the consumers advice and DO NOT discontinue these boots. By far these boots and this brand are the only way to go. Now they only need to invest in making some combat boots for the troops.

I've had boots since I was 3 and these have definitively been my favorite pair. The leather is comfortable and the soles are great. They are worth the money. The shaft has some incredible southwestern style designs which I find very attractive.

Bought these a week and a half ago and I'm seriously considering altering my entire closet so I can wear these everyday

I bought these over 2 1/2 years ago. I have worn them everyday since. I have at least 10 pairs of boots in my closet, some custom made. These are the most comfortable and durable. All I do is replace the insoles every few months! I'm going to buy a couple more pair before they get discontinued!!!!

I bought these boots a couple of years ago. I wear them everywhere with everything. They are right at home with my skirt at church as well as with my jeans out working in the barn. They have held up tremendously well and are always comfortable. Love, love , love this boot!

Bought these the day before a day-long clinic as I have plantar fasciitis and find that I can no longer wear my regular Ariats for any length of time. I am happy to say that I survived the whole day and can still walk today! Walking and riding for 6 or 7 hours--unbelievable. The only drawback was that my baby toes were/are rubbed raw for some reason despite the boots being a WHOLE size larger than my probabies and a 1/2 size larger than my square toed Cassidys . .. weird. But I am sold on the comfort and am now looking for the square toed fat baby as my next purchase!

I've had these boots for 3-4 years, still waterproof and the comfiest boots I've ever owned. Throughout working at barns and hiking, they're still in almost mint condition.

I got these boots as a gift and WOW they are beyond comfortable. I stand in my profession and have not had one day that I have gone home with sore feet. Not to mention that they are so fashion forward for cowboy boots! I love them and I may need to get them in teal next!

Bought these back in 2012 or 2011( can't remember exactly) but since then I've worn them everywhere to anything. They're easy to pull on and I can wear them for hours. I washed my truck the other day in them and they still look brand new. I love pink and camo so the design was perfect. I bought an 8\2 and it's true to size

I bought these as my 6th pair of boots and no other pair have held up and preformed as well as these. I wear them every day.

Bought these boots for my best friends wedding and they really worked well. I then took them on a week vacation in Nashville and got a few compliments from folks at the bars! The ONLY pair of boots I've been able to wear for 3+ hour, standing on my feet and not wanna chew my own feet off. The boot fits well however I should've gotten a 10.5 and not an 11.5. Width was great though.

Love these boots. The tan is darker and more attractive in person than the yellowish hew pictured. Loved the ornate stitching too.

These are my favorite boots to ride and do barn chores in. They are more comfy than my tennis shoes and they were always covered in "dirt", I would wear them everywhere. I have owned this pair for a year and they are holding up well. I have owned Ariat riding tennis shoes for 15 years and these are my third pair. Gotta love them. Please never stop selling these types of boots.

These are my first pair of western boots and I absolutely love them! They break in easy and go with everything I wear even for date night with the wife when I dress up.

I love these boots! I always wore FatBaby boots at the barn. I found that after a while I felt pressure on the top of my big toe. These are so comfy and light. The arch support is amazing, and my feet don't hurt at the end of the day thanks to the padding on the inside. I plan to get more in different colors.

have had my current pair of Fat Baby's since 2008! They have not let me down. I have plenty of tread and the insoles are hanging on. I keep my boots oiled and as clean as I can. I have worn them for both work and pleasure. If you are looking for a durable pair of boots for working out in the field or a night out with friends these are my suggestion!
