Customer Reviews Ariat Groundbreaker Pull-on Steel Toe

I found that these boots are the longest lasting pair I have bought.

First pair of Ariat's to hurt my feet but I usually by a different style so guess I need to go back to the other style. Expensive lesson but that's the way it goes.

I really like the quality and feel of these boots, but I found that they run a bit small.

Great boots, but not made for Arizona heat. After a few hours over 110 the glue for the soles melts and you'll walk right out of the soles in the middle of work. This is the second pair I've had do this, anything up to 105 these boots have been great, but if you're going to work above that I'd bring another pair

Ordered these boots in August of last year (8/24). The boot was great until I tried to take it off today ( 4/25) and the inner liner wouldn't let my foot loose. No indication of failure and I wore the boots every other day and under normal use. It was a surprise as I haven't had any issues with my other pair.

Almost perfect except that the EEs aren't that wide, and for some reason the latest pair of these I bought makes a farting noise when I walk with sweaty socks

It's a nice looking boot and really comfortable, but they are starting to come apart.. the sloe on both the boots is separating.. I don't know if they have a problem with there glue or what, but after reading through the reviews it seems like I'm not the only one this is happening too.

Had these for roughly 6 months and they're comfortable but already letting water in from the sole. Anytime I step in water on my jobsite my socks get soaked. Recommend for comfort but not sure how durable they are

Very stiff, got blisters first time I wore them. That didn't happen with my previous groundbreaker boots!

THESE WERE TOO TIGHT ACROSS THE ARCH AND NOT ENOUGH

My husband loves his ariats , but this pair seems to be pulling apart quicker than pairs he's had in the past . He's a miner so they get plenty of use but it's only been about 5 months and the shoe is peeling apart from the platform.

The fit is reliable and dependable. I tear them up in less than 3 months, but i work hard. I buy them over and over because they are a good fit.

The Groundbreaker steel toe workboot is much stiffer than the previous Rambler square toe work boot. It may offer more protection in the workplace, but is stiff initially. Perhaps it will soften with wear. Ariat, please bring back the Rambler Square Toe workboot.

Great boot but too big around the toe area. Nicely made though!

I wear these daily but on the first day of use the lining detached at the heal. I will say they are comfortable however. I wish I could get them fixed but live n learn

Needs cushion in the heel area. Otherwise a great boot

Boots are extremely comfortable, but the liner isn't attached to the interior causing it to slide while walking and making removal a time consuming headache. I wish they would sew in the liner to prevent this.

It's a nice boot, exactly what you'd expect from the brand but for a work boot the leather up high is really very soft so I'm not sure how it'll hold up

I love these boots and this is my third pair of them but this pair is 8 months old and the inside of the one boot is coming up causing it to not want to come off. The other boot isn't far behind either as I can feel it slipping each time I take it on and off

My first pair of Ariats lasted nearly a year without any issues. My second pair lasted about 3 months before the lining came loose. Ariat covered boots under warranty. I replaced the second pair with the same boot in july, its now October and the lining has came loose on this pair. I have to use a yardstick to remove them. Other than the lining issue, I'm pleased with Ariat boots.

These boots are great once you get them on, but the last 3 pairs I've owned I run into the same issue. The inner lining at the heel comes loose and I need my wife to help take my boot off! I then have to get by with using a shoe horn every time I take my boot off. Ariat is better quality than this, but I read the reviews and see the constant problem with their boots. Such a shame, because I love to represent the Ariat brand proudly!

Last few seem to be running small all my other boots are 8 1/2 and I started out with 8 1/2 that fit great next pair I had to go to 9 reordered 9 on last pair and couldn't even get me foot to make it half way through not sure if it was mislabeled or sizes have changed

Great fit and design. Had an issue with the inner lining beneath the steel toe not being attached properly on one boot, reached out to customer support and got a case number and never heard back from anyone. Had no choice but to wear them anyways for work but aside from that they are pretty decent. Would've been a 5 star for me if the lining was good and if i had someone reach out. Surprised i haven't heard from anyone. Ive got multiple pairs that are great and purchased my fiance and daughter their first pair of ariat boots along with this purchase and they are very happy.

Not as comfortable as other ariats I have owned. Hard on my feet and make them hurt
