Nice boot. Comfortable. The uppers/shaft are really floppy. They sag against my leg. It's the only reason they didn't get 5 stars. But they are really comfortable and I can't feel the uppers at all.

Great boots but they run very big! I wear a 12 & the size 12 I got feels almost 2 sizes too big.

I love these boots. They look great and are really comfortable. The leather is really good quality. The insoles are very supportive and comfortable, beyond what I'd expect from a boot. I would next time heed the reviews and buy a half size smaller because I believe they do run large. I know there's supposed to be a bit of heel slip in a boot like this, but I think with these I'd buy smaller next time. Other than that, fantastic!

Excellent boots! Very comfortable, leather upper soft and supple. Worth ever penny...Easy to wear around the house, buff and wear out in town. Did not need a larger size as some reviewers noted. Order the size you want...

Great boot. Style is awesome. Comfort rating is due to the loose fit in the heel, otherwise very comfortable.

These are rocking boots but they run narrow for me. I had to go to EEE from my normal D but they fit great and are the most comfortable boots that I have ever worn. Slip on/slip off. I stood ankle deep in mud and they cleaned right up with a brush and some saddle soap. I like the softer uppers; not so stiff under your jeans. Buy them, you will love them.

Boot was uber comfortable to wear... boot appears more distressed in photo.Ill break them in and distress them my self. Great boot to wear out or a rock show with the right jeans and shirt. my only hang up was a design on front of shoe ( you cant really see it in the picture unless you look very good) but ill distress that out.That why no 5/5.boot looks like a biker/cowboy boot hybrid.

I read a couple of reviews that said to order a size smaller. They were right. I had to return the first pair - size 15 and exchange for 14. They fit great, feel great, and look great.

I wear size 11 wide, 11.5 wide, and sometimes even size 12. Dress shoes, skates, hiking boots, etc. I've tried on a few western boots and found that I need a 10.5w or 11w in the pull on styles. These boots had to be 9.5w to fit me well. That's 1.5 to 2 full sizes less than my normal shoes!
Size aside, these look great. I didn't want a bulky knobby sole but didn't feel brave enough for smooth leather either. And I always love the look of my boots best just before they fall apart, these arrive looking like they've got stories to tell right out of the box.

After reading the reviews I opted to order my true size, an 11. Boots are too big. I am debating whether to just keep them and wear a large sock. I would order a half size smaller than your true size. Nice boot!

My husband farms and this boot looks like it will stand up to constant hard wear. When he can't get 3E width, he has to go a half-size larger. We saw the reviews saying it runs large so, since this only came in 2E, we tried his normal size. It's still too big but he likes it so we're sending it back for a half-size smaller.

Run 1/2 size too big. Great boots, look and feel comfortable, but they run big. Will have to exhange the ones I just got.

Great boot, but after trying 3 different sizes, my husband found that the boot that fit was 2 full sizes smaller than he usually wears, and he had to go with a wide. That said, he loves them now!

The boots arrived yesterday and were, unfortunately, sent back same day. The color and style were precisely as pictured, absolutely beautiful.
Size: I had approx one inch of heel slip with regular socks. Not quite enough to kick the boots off, but close. I tried thick socks and that seemed to work, although we shouldn’t have to wear heavy socks in order to fix a non-standard-sized boot. Start with a half-size lower than your actual size—Otherwise I’m afraid you’re in for a grave disappointment. I’m a true 10.5”, medium width (D). I read mixed reviews, many stating this model was true to size, many others stating they were half to whole size larger. Believe the latter and order a half-size smaller than you’d normally purchase. Trust me on this, as I went to a local, western boot store and tried on similar Ariat models to confirm. Every single one of the Ariat’s I tried on fit perfectly with the correct amount of heel slip at a half-size lower than my personal foot measurement. To be sure, I tried 9.5’s, and they were so small that I was unable even to insert my foot at all. One more time: Purchase a half-size lower than your actual size and you’ll save everybody a lot of time and money. These boots are worth the trouble, as the quality, color and finish are precisely what you hoped they’d be. They’re also versatile, as you can wear them with jeans or slacks. They look great with both!

I ordered a pair of Fatbabys with big hopes they would be the answer for my wide feet to be comfortable at work where cowboy boots are required. They were adorable! Unfortunately, the wides were not wide enough for me and were more rigid than regular cowboy boots. So waiting for them to stretch wasn't going to help. I ended up purchasing men's wide square toe cowboy boots that would stretch. I was also disappointed that the uppers were not leather and that some reviews said they would show wear fast. That said, if they fit, they're probably worth the price if you cover the upper with jeans.

Impressed with the waterproof, but the rubber toe cap is already peeling after 3 times of normal wear. The blistering while breaking these in weren't too bad though and it's overall pretty comfortable to wear.

Great look and quality but the fit? I had much difficulty getting my foot into the boot, then once I did, they were too large inside. I can see why so many love them but the fit just wasn't for me. Sadly had to return

I guess I'm in the minority of folks here. I don't find them wildly comfortable and I find the soft, flexible sides a pain to put on vs. regular boots.

This is my second pair of Ariat boots. The fit is great. However, I haven't worn them a ton, and in less than a year the heel is starting to peel back away from the boot. This is super disappointing! My other problem with them is just that the tread on these boots is very slippery when it is wet or snowy/icy. There is very little grip in these conditions.

They were about a size too big. I ordered my usual size. Had to return and will re order.

Love this line of boot always works for the amount of walking but will not purchase again. It will be the water proof boot. It is August have had the boots 2 months, they have fallen apart...since I work horses for a living my feet get wet a lot. The fronts of the boots and soul have literally fell off the boot.

Love the look of these boots and somewhat comfortable. However, like a lot of the other reviews, came scuffed/scratched out of the box (which I have been told is normal for distressed leather and should buff out - it didn't) and has an extremely tight instep. Was impossible for me to get my foot into the correct size, so bought the size up in a wide. Still quite tight across the top of my foot and have a little heel slippage, but manageable with thicker socks. Just disappointing for the price.

The over all boot was absolutely beautiful, but they did not fit comfortably. The wouldn't stay on my heel, even after buying a different size and width the heel still slipped w every step! I had to return both pairs and hunt for another pair that will not slip.
