Customer Reviews Ariat Groundbreaker 6"

These boots are great, I am very tough on my gear and tend to wear them out rather quickly. However this pair of boots is very well built and stands up to the beating that I give them. This is the first pair of Ariat shoes I have owned and am very pleased with the result. I will definitely be purchasing from Ariat again. Also, very happy that they have wide sizes.

I exited the military a couple of years ago and have been wearing my GI (Government Issue) boots at the job site. A concerned friend bought me a pair of these boots and I've never been more comfortable through a 6 to 6 work shift. Wish the Army had given me these.

I bought these boots about a month ago and I couldn't be more pleased with them. An excellent boot for everyday use and light-medium duty construction work. Break in period was pretty quick. Bottom line: Comfortable, durable, stylish.

I've been wearing work boots on concrete for over 30 years. Had these boots for a month now. It was an easy break in and the boot gets better and better. They are comfortable, sturdy, rock solid, well made boots. Best boots I have ever worn.

Very hard for me to find a good work boot. I am on my feet on concrete for 10+ hours a day. I don't get to take advantage of the inserts since I have orthotics, but the orthotics fit in nicely with ordering a size up. Break in was about 2 or 3 days and after that a nice solid boot.

Just became my favorite foot wear! Immediate relief for a tired back

This boot is light weight and comfortable for all day wear. Minimal break in period. Are my favorite non steel toe work boots.

The most comfortable work boot I've owned. The only negative thing about this is that the boot is not two toned like it's advertised. Ariat should update the picture.

I've been through every "recommended" shoe for support and foot pain relief in the last few years, then I recalled how comfortable my old work boots had been. I pulled a pair of these on at the store and have never looked back. Hands down the most comfortable boot I've ever worn. Sturdy, supportive, stylish, and, I kid you not, not even a stray thread to be trimmed off. Even the laces have an unusual texture, and they don't come untied all day with only a single knot. I've owned boots three times the cost of these that were not made this well. Available in widths too. If these boots are a good fit for your foot, do not hesitate to purchase them.

Bought these the other day for a day to day boot! Really like the fit and how comfortable they are! Would recommend to anyone looking for a work boot!

I have worn ariat boots for several years and always like how they feel these are on my top of the list now

Little Darker in color than the pictures. But the fit is perfect and I love the style!

Groundbreaker 6" work boot in 11.5 Extra Wide. I have had these boots for years and they are my favorite lace up boot. I have really wide feet, and it is hard to find comfortable boots without compromising on something. The only issue I've had with these is the sole separating from the boot. I had them reattached, but they are starting to separate in a different area now, so I'll have that fixed and continue to wear them. The boots have many miles left on them, if I can keep the soles attached. I want to order another pair, but they're never in stock when I look.

Bought the wide EE boots and they fit great! Very comfortable fit. Just received them, so they're not broken in yet. I like the look/style and feel. Trusting they'll withstand the test of time!

Nice! Fit good. Look great. The upper was a little stiff, still is. I don't lace them tight up there. Im guessing they will break in with time.

I bought a pair of groundbreakers (9/15/22) and they were my daily working boot. Super stylish, tuff, my feet fit just perfect, no fatigue or stress while wearing them all day. Until last June 2024 when I noticed the right boot heel seam started separating (see images). Nothing wrong with the boots at all.

This is my 3rd pair. Quality/comfort doesn't seem as good as previous. I'm on my feet all day and this pair is leaving me hurting by end of the day.

Recently purchased me these boots for work, comfortable from the start and gets better every day I wear them

I've been on my feet in these for the past month...from the shop floor to the flight line, from the field to the farm to the show floor and these boots have shown well throughout. Break in took about two days. With after market insoles these fit perfectly & are very comfortable. Mods: added superfeet gold insoles & 63" Iron laces These boots do not shine up well with traditional wax polish...cream worked better but the best has been some Danish oil and wax paste. I used leather butter on the tongue to darken it up.

If you have a wide foot, this boot is for you. I've had many boots and these are the most comfortable ones I've owned. They do run big I'm a size 9 and I feel like 8.5 would've fit really good. Overall a good boot to own
