Customer Reviews Ariat Round Up Square Toe

The shaft is too narrow at the top, which causes the ankle area to collapse and rub the back of my heel bloody.

Not comfortable, says wide but very narrow. Hurts feet, leather breaks down fast. Already saggy

I really like the durable quality but the process to break them in is, is not what expected. The area around my ankles is the worse and constantly rub and hurt. Even with thick socks on it still rubs when I'm walking. The print and colors are amazing

Beautiful boot but the toe-box was too small and crushed my toes. Returned but not unhappy

They were cute, but too long. I had to exchange for something else

Sorry but reviews without pictures annoy me. So - These boots - 7 out of 10. These are nice to look at. I am starting to become concerned with Ariats quality control - Has something changed? The right boot was 1/3 of an inch larger than the left. It doesn't sound like much, but it is very noticeable when one foot slips in just fine and it takes me 5-10 minutes to get the other boot on. Because I need a pair of boots to wear every day these will do for now. In the future I will be investing in a higher quality pair of boot, though I used to be a huge ariat fan. Anyways - Size down, or size halfway down. I am usually a size 8 and bought a 7.5. My regular size would've been far too large! I don't recommend these for fatter girls like myself - If you have cankles or fat calves they can be tricky to get into. A bigger size wouldn't help with the ankle / calf issue, since your foot would be swimming in the boot at that point. I ordered wide. I am quite sure these would last the fairweather rider many years. They are an attractive pair of boots for the cost - I like that the gold is a little bit more toned down when you get the actual boots in person, and if you love a darker oil they're a lovely color. I ride and use them everyday so I am hopeful they'll last me at least another year or two. Pros - Looks Cons - Quality You be the judge! Happy riding.

I'm honestly really disappointed not just with my purchase, but with Ariat entirely. I've purchased 3 new pairs of boots, not including the one pair that I returned, within the past year. None of them held up, so they clearly don't make these boots like they used to. The sizing is off, a bit big at the heel, and if you order half a size down then it just crunches your toes. So it's going to make it more difficult to walk in, let alone ride horses. These boots that I just bought have that same sizing issue, although not as bad as the last pair I ordered and returned. These boots are darker in person than in the photos, which for me is fine because I prefer darker leather, but other people may be unhappy with that. They're pretty boots in my opinion, though. My biggest issue with these is that I received them and supposedly they're brand new, but they came with scuff marks all over the boots. Specifically, one over the front of the boot that looks like a crease mark from being worn some. I called customer service because it's not fair to make me pay full price for boots that look worn. They wouldn't offer me any portion of my money back, just said all they could do is a return for me. My current boots are full of holes and I can't afford to wait any longer, not to mention finding boots in my size (9C) has been a real struggle this year as not many boots offer a wide width and the handful that do are out of stock and have been for quite some time now. Overall, I've always been a huge Ariat supporter, but I think I'll be looking at different brands from now on. Ariat just doesn't care about how their boots are made nor about their customer satisfaction at this point. This brand just isn't what it used to be. It's really disappointing because they used to be so good. Giving 3/5 stars purely because they at least had my size and the boots are pretty aside from the scuff marks. Ariat, please, do better!

I've had these boots for a month or so now, and they fit very well, though I had to size down a full size. the toe shape is great very comfortable, but the leather scuffs very easily and is hard to keep looking nice. I don't regret my purchase but I'm a little nervous to see how these hold up. I don't recommend these for someone who is looking for a go-to the barn boot. But if looks are what you're after these are perfect.

These boots are really quite comfortable, but I must say I'm disappointed with the look. The leather looks like it's synthetic. In fact, I'm actually not sure they are leather. But, the fit is good, and I have no issues with performance and comfort so far.

Nice boot! Well made. However runs narrow. Get the wide size!

I wanted to love these - the style and look was great, but they run extremely large. Even with thick socks, my heels were lifting out of them when trying to walk and so I had to return. Unfortunately, they did not have my size smaller, so couldn't exchange.

Bought these boots and within two weeks of wear a scuffed circle appeared....the thin leather was gone on this particular spot. I would be extremely careful in buying this product. They are comfy but not durable. Have taken them to shoe shop for repair.

I was so excited to get these boot! So cute and love the colors, but they are sooo tight on my foot, while I was trying to get them broken in my feet went numb! I think I have to give up on these. So sad :-(

Nice tight fit but they squeak when you walk. I like the style but wouldn't buy again.

The picture represents the boots color and size very well. The boot runs long and the part of the boot that presses on the top of your foot and is too low and very tight. It hurts. These were the 3rd pair of western boots and I have had the same problem with all three. I was hoping that a larger half size would help, but unfortunately it did not.

These boots are comfortable but after less than a year of having them the boot ripped out from the sole. I'm very disappointed with how these boots held up.

Too tight around the ankles and ball of the foot. Difficulty getting them off. Returned.

By looking at the picture online of these boots, they are definitely not trie to the color. I was expecting a blue upper and these are black or very dark gray in color. I'm very disappointed. I can't return this pair. I need them due to an event honoring my father this weekend. He's being honored posthumously for his years of helping kids learn to ride horses, and being a huge part of our local saddle club community. I feel like online pictures should reflect the true color of items listed.

I've had these boots for a year. The leather on the side of foot area is cracked and splitting badly. I'm going to have to replace them already.

Not the exact color that was pictured, came in significantly darker. extremely comfortable thought! just not what was pictured

I bought these boots for an event I was attending and I was so disappointed that they were sooo tight. I thought I could maybe stretch them out with shoe trees but that seemed to do nothing. I had to return the boots because I was not going to be able to ever wear them

My favorite pair of boots were worn out and needed replacing. After ordering the third pair to find the right size, one boot feels like it's perfect and the other boot feels completely different. My heart is broken. All I want is a new pair of Ariat's!
