Owned many pairs of Ariat boots to work on our small farm but I've liked this one the best. I prefer the lower heel as it is less prone to twisting an ankle an rocky ground than the higher heels.

I recently purchased my first pair of the Ariat boots. I chose the 'Ground Breaker Square Toe H20 model of work boots' and have been very happy with them. They are well made, comfortable and attractive boots. When it comes to work boots I dont know that you could ask for anything more!

Very happy with my purchase. Boot took only a few days to break in. Wear them to work everyday. They get used around the farm and for play on the weekends as well. All you need to do is dust them off and they're ready for a night out on the town. Very comfortable and durable. Will be buying a pair of waterproof boots shortly as well. This is my second pair or Ariat boots and I'm already eyeing up a few other Ariat boots in the near future.

I bought a pair of these to wear when helping my daughter with her new small acerage, 2 horse property. I wanted boots that were easy to slip on and slip off, comfortable, fit well, provide support, stylish, durable, of best quality, and affordable. These boots meet all of the above criteria. Just absolutely fabulous boots for light duty farming chores, wearing them to the motel cafe after a hard day of hunting, or just around town. You absolutely cannot find a better combination of features.

Boots are absolutely beautiful in person. Once the package has been received, you'll know immediately after opening the box.

These are a great everyday boot. They start off tight but loosen up after a couple days and are all day comfortable. This is my 2nd pair I got just to have another pair. The ones I have had for 2 years are in perfect condition and I wear them everyday.

Very comfortable boots right out of the box. Nice dark color which could be worn for work or everyday wear. Soles are slip resistant which are perfect for motorcycle riding or work. Round toe boot for that classic look that doesn't ever go out of style! Having owned multiple pairs of your boots over the years, I'm confident I'll get many years out of these boots.

I have worn several brands of workboots in some pretty rugged conditions. Usually only got 9 months out of a pair. With the Groundbreaker, i consistently get well overca year out of a pair of boots.

I've been wearing these Ariat work boots for about 3 months now, working 12+ hour shifts in underground construction, and they've definitely proven themselves. They get abused daily and have held up better than most boots I've ownedonly a small rip in one seam so far, which is impressive considering the conditions I put them through. They're durable, comfortable, and meet the standard for tough work environments. If I had one critique, it's that the sole padding could be better for those really long days on your feet. Other than that, they're solid boots that I'd recommend to anyone needing reliable footwear for heavy-duty work.

Had these boots for about 2 years now, I work in a mechanic shop for farm equipment, these boots held up for about 1.5 years of work 8 hours a day. They took a little bit to break in but after that perfect. After a year and a half the inside was falling apart and started to get uncomfortable.

I really like this boot. Feels good wearing, like the style, matches up to my other Ariat boots I've had in the past.

I am on my 9th and 10th pair of these. Up until September I have loved these boots. I could slip them on and wear them all day( no break in period needed). The left boot of my pair from September, was considerably tighter than the right. They never loosened up, so in October I thought maybe I just got a bad one, and tried another pair. They never loosened left boot was slightly looser, but my heal started hurting after wearing these. I noticed that the insoles were more flimsy than my older pairs. So I swapped them out, and they still hurt my left foot. I may look for an alternative next year.

For the price, these boots are exceptional. Bought mine a little over a year ago and are only just now starting to wear out on the inside heel. For reference, I work in a shop exposing them to weld spatter, excessive sparks, concrete floors, oily surfaces, and the like. These boots get me thru 6 days a week 50 some odd hours. True working man boots right here

Im on my feet all day and these work boots are very comfortable, good wear for a mechanic. Best part is, my back doesnt hurt like it usually does, after wearing other work shoes.

Good work boot, I wear them out in the woods a lot through muddy terrain like marshes and swamps here in the coastal region of south carolina, ive also worn them in snow and in rain and they hold up really well. in my experience, if you get half a size bigger like I did, theyre practically waterproof as your feet arent pressed up against the insides if the leather gets soaked, and on top of that, it takes a lot of water to soak the leather on these, and they hold up really well in rain and snow and in swampy areas, ive also dropped heavy things like a vice and a circular saw on the toe and they were fine

Great work boots. A little tight on the left but that's my foot's fault. Only wore for a week so far so still wearing them in. Really like the look of them as well

Like easy on/off work boots without laces for dirt, mud, and debris to get stuck into? They made these for us. Ive had mine over a year wearing them almost every day. Yesterday I needed to go on my 6:12 comp roof and the grip was impressive. Have the right amount of strength and flex. They aint flashy so you wont get made fun of on the job site, at least for the boots. Look made to get work done and do just that.
