Customer Reviews Ariat Groundbreaker Pull-on Steel Toe

Got these for Christmas and he loved them. Comfortable, good look to them. Well it's been about a month of wearing them and they are not waterproof for long, they're beginning to leak to the point your feet get wet when it's just raining.

Really comfortable but only been wearing about 3 months and my feet r wet definitely not getting another pair

The layer of material under the insole turned to mush by the 3rd day wearing them. Ive been looking for a boot that can hold up to the tough conditions I put them through, and these would be it if not for that reason.

Boots rubs back of your heels. Wore for 3 weeks to see if just needed broken in, that didn't solve the problem

Great looking boot. Would've given 5 stars if not for the sizing. My husband has been wearing similar looking Ariat boots for over ten years. Ordered the same size as always, but these were much tighter. Had to return them.

I bought these boots in May and they lasted one week. The insole of the boot came separated from the base of the shoe, which made it nearly impossible to get off my foot. I actually got a bit of claustrophobia as I tried to remove. It is unfortunate because they were really comfortable.

Looks to be a well built boot. The shaft on the right boot is to tight to get by foot in.Never had a boot that the shaft was under sized.

The boot is heavy and not comfortable to wear. After working in them all day your ankles and knees feel it. I am a young, fit guy and can tell the difference.

Good boots, tough leather but stitching is weak. After about 6-8 months the stitching on the front of the boot just came loose. Sole just flapping about. Wish there was a warranty for stuff like this.

I got the boot a wore them for a day or two but just to tight I need wider ones I've never had to order them wider so now I have boots I can't wait

I ordered these to replace an old pair when the sole came off. Same size completely different fit. I had to have a pair so I wore them despite the horribly loose fit. I promptly ordered a pair of Thorogood's to replace the Ariats. Hopefully I'll be able to wear the Ariats this winter with thicker socks. Second time I've had fit issues with Ariat. Won't make this mistake again.

I got these 4 years ago and have put alot of miles on them.. the only thing I can complain about is today I had to glue them.. lol

I've had quite a few Ariat boots and these are the first that have ever been this tight and rough on the tops of my feet. They seem slightly too small in the throat and the uppers don't seem to be breaking in. Overall, I'm pretty disappointed compared to all my other great Ariat experiences.

I bought these in October, 2020 and the leather on the side is already cracking! I was hoping they would last at least a year. I wear these boots 40 hours a week and stand all day.

Boot the boot. I'm normally a 9.5 EE, bought the same size and there were very big. Not Ariats fault as all boot fit different. I'm usually a wide, but these things are very wide! Going to try a 9 wide instead. Big problem is the color does not match the photo at all! Take a look at the picture on the box compared to the actual boo; same issue as a few have commented here. The boot with the black top has very dark color, not as advertised.

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

Absolute trash! I would never buy again. After the boots get a little age(less than a year) the crappy liner that's glued to the inside of the boot pulls loose and makes it nearly impossible to take your foot out. Awful design

Hardly used soles falling off of left and right boot

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.
