Customer Reviews Ariat Ariat Rambler

For those with a high instep, this boot is hard to pull on. I returned it.

I also own these in "earth" and they're good-looking and comfortable. I like the variation in color and that they looked well-worn right out of the box. I don't think this boot looks good in black; the style benefits tremendously from a rustic finish that doesn't come through in a boot that looks as though it's been spray-painted jet black. They're just as comfortable, but in my opinion they're cheap-looking. If I'd seen them in a store, I would have passed. It's also worth noting that the Ramble has a soft shaft that flops over; it won't stand up like in the photo. I strongly recommend going with the "earth" color.

I ordered these for my 15-year-old son in his normal shoe size (9). In hiking boots, he has a 9.5. He is going on a 10-day trail riding/camping trip and needs boots, but, not being a cowboy, didn't want traditional cowboy boots. Anyway, these boots were at least an entire size too big. There were 2" between the tip of his big toe and the front of the boot. His heel slipped up as he walked. In fact, he had trouble keeping these boots on while walking. Don't know what the issue is. Will try a 1/2 size and a full size down. Otherwise, I don't know what I'll do.

These boots look like they have been there and done that. The leather upper is as soft as kitten fur. They are slightly oversized even though I ordered a half size smaller than I usually wear (other reviewers made that suggestion).

These boots look great, but unfortunately I could not find a size that fit. I normally wear a 13 (or 46), however, these boots were much larger than a normal 13. Zappos graciously let me exchange them for a 12. I received them the next day. But, the 12 was still a little long and narrow. Right out of the box look really cool, and I am disappointed that I could not make them work. I can tell that they are quality boots and would be comfortable if you can make the size work for you.
