I've worn a size 7 in boots (combat, hiking, cowboy) for the last 30 years but Ariat boots are consistently a size too big. The issue now is that their selection of boots in size 6 or 6.5 is nearly non-existent which means I'll have to look elsewhere. The boots themselves look great and appear durable, but I'm disappointed on how they are sized. This is the second boot I've tried from Ariat in size 7 and both fit like a size 8.

I got these today and they don't match the color of the picture, they fit tight but I don't know of that will go away as you break them but if they do I will raise this to a 4 star

They look great but the feel inside is not wide enough and the arch needs more support.

Fits a full size larger than your day to day shoe size. I'm normally a 9D in sneakers and 8.5EE in boots, so I ordered my boot size, but these boots fit like a 10 in length. The shaft was not as durable leather as the lower part of the boot. I think if they fit I would keep as a comfortable light duty work boot, just be aware of the size and fit discrepancy.

Everything about thing boot is fine except for the inside material that binds up on my heel when I try to slip the boot on. I know they're not too small because the one time I got them on they were more loose than any other boot I've had. I tried putting some foot powder in there as well so that moisture wouldn't be a problem and it didn't change a thing. It's just the synthetic inner lining and I literally cant put my new boots on anymore.

Had to return because there were very big for the size. Also the color was much darker than in picture. Good boot after I figured out correct size.

All around a pretty good boot. They are my work boots and play boots- I don't have another pair of shoes. Weddings, funerals, whatever. I beat boots up for a living. I live in Ohio and we have muddy spring, warm summers and cold winters. They have seen quite a bit of mud, salt, water, and ice. These boots did have the soles and leather crack a little, but not enough to let water in yet. That said, The soles still have tread. I pick out the big chunks of mud/muck out with a pocket knife and let the rest be. If it cant be knocked off with a boot scraper then it stays. They lasted a year with no special care. The leather is breathable enough to not give me swamp foot. I did have to add some arch support inserts, but that may just be my feet.

I bought the boots for my husband. He says they are very comfortable, but the sole is starting to seperate from the boot after only one week of wear. For the price that is unacceptable.

Giving a two because of how comfy they were for my boyfriend. But they only lasted 6 months before falling apart on the inside. He works on a pipe laying crew.

Boots are way darker than expected. Ordered them based on the color, unfortunately they are nothing like the picture. Returning.

Had these for about 6 months and the soles are coming up. I wear them to work and that's about it. Definitely not construction grade. Very comfortable

Lower part of the boot is leather, however the upper shaft is not fully leather as shown in the picture, it was more of a spongy fabric. Size was 8.5, however it fit as an entire size larger. Returned.

Bought this boot in of the summer and am just getting into breaking them in and wearing them. The boot runs big, too big, I ordered a 9, a whole size smaller than I wear since reviews say it runs big. Still swimming in them, have to wear 2 pairs of socks.

My second pair of these boots. I bought the first pair in my normal boot size and they were way too big. Went a half size down and still somewhat to big. Be careful on the size you buy. I was very disappointed in this because I have only Ariat boots and to have to get a smaller size is awful.

I've had the boots for about 2 months now, the quality is good, but they are very uncomfortable and hard on your feet, alongside constant chafing on my ankles, i've used both custom orthotics and the inserts they come with, neither made the boot anymore comfortable

These were purchased just to be everyday work wear. I have already had the original pair replaced within a couple months of purchase. Now it has only been a couple months since receiving the replacements and only been worn for just about 3 weeks and they are coming apart in the same place. They are not exposed to anything out of ordinary so I am not happy with this product at all.

Too tight at the top arch of the foot, also right boot is tighter than the left. Never had this problem before and disappointed in Ariat. Ive been happy with their boots for years until this pair came. They look great but comfort is top of the list and more important. Wont buy again.

These boots were almost black when I got them in the mail. I wish they would posted what they actually looked like in person. This is false advertising because the coloring of the boot in the picture online is perfect.

Quality is declining my first pair was great wore like a smooth comfortable pair of gloves after that each pair has declined. Not happy at all with this purchase or my last 2 pairs. Hopefully you can get the manufacturing straightened out .
