This is my second pair of Ariats. First lasted about 5 years. I will never buy another brand

I bought these boots as an alternative to the usual lace up boots that I wore to work everyday. These are extremely comfortable and I really like the style. They fit great and are easy on and easy off. They may not provide as much ankle support as a lace up boot, but that is not something that I need.

Bought these for everyday use to gain some support, instead of wearing tennis shoes all the time. These boots exceeded all expectations. I have a hammer toe so I need a shoe that sits a little higher on the top of the foot. I am usually hard to fit in boots but these boots were excellent to wear. First time wearing did not even require breaking in and after 5 hours standing I had no soreness on my toes or feet at all. Im 62 years old and this is the first pair of boots I have owned that did not require a break in period. Very nice and well made boot.

My husband bought these for work, and he likes them a lot. He bought a size 14 and they fit perfectly; he wears a 15 in tennis shoes and a 14 in wide (EE) boots and nike slides.

I've only had these a few months, but they are without a doubt the most comfortable boot I've ever had straight out of the box. Very light weight for a steel toe and has worn well so far. I bought them on a recommendation from a couple friends in the steel industry and would absolutely recommend them to anyone else. I did size up to accommodate my thicker thermal socks.

First pair of boots I've owned. I bought these to wear to work at the golf course and also casual dress. They get the job done. Pretty comfortable for a heavy duty work boot. Waterproof is a big bonus. Got them SOAKED one day in standing water. Feet never felt a drop. And they dried in less than 15 minutes.

I use this boot every day, very comfortable, easy to put on or kick off, no more lenghty lacing like with the workboots I had earlier. When I bought them I tried three different brands but the Ariat boots were the most comfortable, they are easy to put on but still holds your feet firm, with minimal movement at the heels. Would I use them for a 20-30 mile hike? Not likely as laced boots are better for long walks, but for everyday work it is really comfortable. These are my first Ariat boots but Im sure not the last ones.

Working as a mechanic at a Chevy dealer in the midwest, my work boots see a lot of action. They get drenched in everything from water to coolant to diesel oil and still keep my feet dry. I've had my Groundbreaker steel toes for roughly a year. They have their share of scuffs and nicks, but still have a lot of life in them. I haven't seen any signs of the soles separating like another user posted, either. When they do give up the ghost, I'll likely be buying another set of these.

My parents bought these for me as a birthday gift a couple of years ago and they're all I wear. I love them and I plan on buying from Ariat again.

Owned these boots for 2 years. The description says it all. These are a great everyday, do it all boot. Comfortable, and waterproof. I do irrigation and never have a problem. I do use mink oil though. Ariat is the best

These almost look too good to be yardwork books, but they are perfect to slip in and out of going to and from the yard while providing all the support and comfort needed.

I will continue to purchase this same boot over and over as opposed to red wings!

Bought these recently as steel toes are required in some areas where i worked. No break-in time. They fit like I've owned them for years.
With short, wide feet and a high arch it's tough to buy boots off the shelf. This is my third pair of Ariat boots and they all fit great.

Great boots! I work out in the field and walk several miles a day in these, and they were comfortable right out of the box. Look great as well.

I purchased this boot at the farm show over 2 years ago. I wear them daily year round on the farm including in barnyard with 2" cow manure! I wear them planting, spraying, haying, cleaning, riding etcBest work boot yet and I'm a woman- no one makes a woman's work boot. A bit warm in the summer but too comfortable to change to another boot. Will but a new pair soon

WOW! I ordered these boots on a Saturday and got them on Wednesday. To me, that is super fast! I was very pleased with the competitive pricing Zappos offered for these boots. My husband goes through about 2 pairs of steel toe boots per year, and they can be pricey. We will definitely order from here again!

I bought these shoes for reputation through co-workers. I'm in the construction industry doing various jobs n usually on my feet for very long hours. Right away you notice the comfort n feel like you're not even wearing work shoes. I have tried Timberland pro's which I got an insulated boot n kept my feet cool when it was hot n dry when it was cold. However those shoes messed up my toes with callas n the lining went down in a few months like the lady said they would. I also had tried a pair of red wings, a little more comfortable than the Timberlands, but the stitching came out in 2mths. Time n the steel was exposed right away on top of the boot. Since I've had my Ariats I've been searching for all year round weather boots with insulation n feet to be dry. Gonna order me a few pairs, because I love the boots n when I first got my first pair I told everyone there's no better work boot than Ariat!! :).
