Customer Reviews Ariat Groundbreaker Pull-on Steel Toe

I got 5 months out of this last pair before the sides by the toe ripped out

I was looking for a rugged slipon workboot. I'm a union carpenter and need something tough that will last. These boots look nice but are very thin (no good in cold weather) and will not stand up to the beating I put on work boots. Maybe they are good for light duty work but not construction work.

These boots provide great cushioning - walking is very comfortable. I bought them on another site and after a few weeks left a very positive review. Then? Then the inside of the left boot started falling apart and it made it nearly impossible to get the boot off without using a shoehorn. The shoehorn is needed to hold the heel liner and the rest of the lining in place because it has separated from the rest of the boot, and immediately bunches up and prevents you from getting the boot off / getting your foot out. Poor quality of construction. Hugely disappointed customer here.

I purchased this boot because I knew I would be out in the snow soon, and you know how bad cold wet feet are. This boot was not water proof, the first snow and my feet are soaked. The top is also too loose, does't even touch my leg and I have to constantly pull my pants down over them.

I bought these boots and had them 2 weeks and the inner lining came unglued so i brought them back and replaced for free, 8 months later im in the same boat. Its the most comfortable boot i have ever worn and when you hose them off they look brand new just the lining comes unglued

My boost coming used

Worst boots i have bought for work! These are already warranty ones due to my first pair had a loose material and kept speaking in the heel area. Now these do the same thing except in both boots. Biggest waste of money and time. Ariat you guys let me down with this type of quality.

Really liked these boots, fit good. However, within 2 weeks of wearing them, the soles started coming off of both boots. Returned and received a refund. Just wish they had been better made.

I bought these boots last Saturday, May 10th to be exact I asked for something waterproof something I can pull on and something that would last and was shown these. Fast forward to today I'm off of work trying to take my boot of for legit 15 minutes because this inner lining is moving around with my foot everytime I try to pull my foot out of the boot this is ridiculous after 5 days of use I stick to Ariat brand for my work boots and this was by far the absolute worst boot I've ever worn 0 stars.

Start has went way down hill they are just over a year old and they are falling apart at the soles!

Had them for about 2 weeks and the sleeve inside of them started coming out as I took my foot out the boot don't recommend them

Did not receive this product, poor communication between shipper and shipping company. UPS and Ariat don't play well together!

Just got them. Bought these to replace Durangos that I liked but fell apart well before their time. They feel very comfortable, and I'm praying they hold up better than other brands.

Inner lining detached after wearing them for less than a dozen times. No response for warranty return from email and unable to get anyone on the phone. Had a prevision version of this boot from 4 years ago and it appears they have changed something that caused the quality to go down.

i ordered these boots on november 30th we are now january 4 and still havent received my boots, i tried contacting customer service and i never heard anything back from them. I'm in canada but still it should not take over a month to receive a package, i'll never order anything from them again

I ordered the exact boot from a previous order. It arrived and was much smaller than the original boot. I sent them back and received a size larger. Fit was good but after a week and a half the heel began coming off the right boot. Customer service is fantastic but boot quality has gone away.

These boots are awful, the inner layer pops out everytime I try to take my foot out and then I have to sit there and fight it for 30 minutes. After I finally got it out I went to put them back on for work and the plastic was messed up and dug into my foot.

I purchased these boots about 3 months ago. The inner lining is not attached and slides up and down making this weird noise. The first time I wore these in the rain my feet got wet. Now the inner lining is worse and I struggle to take them off. Would not recommend.

For being as expensive as they are, they sure are terrible quality as of late. Literally about to stop wearing the one boot brand I actually like. I've had these boots for less than two weeks and the leather is already fading. I conditioned and water proofed them before use. This is completely unacceptable.

Bought 3 months ago and the boots are totally destroyed! Worst boots iEver owned!

Just after 2 months or wearing them they started to get hard to get off due to that insulation thing inside it had happend to me with my old ariat boots different model but had that same inside insulation or whatever it's called it's not glued to the boot itself it is loose and when trying to take off that thing wants to come out with your foot and gets stuck

i loved these boots very comfortable from the beginning for daily wear in maybe a shop would be good but out on sites are bad after time after 4-5 months the soles ripped off and water was leaking in them aswell of the inner lining falling apart making it impossible to wear comfortably

Not pleased at all order with these boots I ordered them in March now its June and it takes me and my husband working very hard to get his boot off due to the inside liner coming out....
