Super cute shoes. I initally bought the regular pair, but ended up purchasing the wide pair because it was pretty tight. The wide pair is still tight as well but I can wear it for a couple hours and be alright. Best for casual events that dont require much walking.

It is a beautiful boot but stitching is actually red & orange so would clash with many outfits. A wide width should be offered for more comfort.

The boots are lighter than the photos, more of a gradient effect but overall a great boot. Did not take much to break them in and I appreciate wide boots being available.

I have a pair of Ariat full size boots and really fancied these little ankle ones. Unfortunately they were too tight, both in length and width. I'd love to get a bigger size once they are back in stock, as they just keep flying off the shelf!

Absolutely love these boots!! The only reason I didn't rate as 5 stars is because they are a bit narrow and I do not have narrow feet. I'm hoping they will stretch a bit.

Very cute and trendy with jeans, dress, or leggings. Ive bought many Ariat shoes and boots a few years ago. This pair is " different" durability. Normally black or brown leather boots scuff, not peel on the toe. The first couple days I wore them, the black toe is peeling as though an overlay of leather. Its not leather all the way thru like the rest of my boots Honestly, For the cost of a boot-, its disappointing that the boot doesnt just scuff instead of peel. I still wear them regardless. They were not inexpensive. Fairly comfortable, and breathable. Able to wear for most of the day or an evening out. They broke in nice. No blisters with thin socks. Weigh wise, heavier than the loafers, not a heavy as a full boot.

The product is amazing both in look and quality. I do recommend you size 1/2 up from your normal size as they seem to run tight

I love Ariats. Have two others, so I know the size is correct. These felt a little tight in the width. But that could be because I have worn sneakers for quite awhile, and my feet might have spread out a little. The color is great though.

These are my first pair of cowgirl booties or western boots. I recently moved to a farm/ranch county and I needed a good pair. These are so comfortable and cute. I recommend these lovely boots.

I love these boots, they meet all of my expectations except one: The "old black" looks like brand new shiny black which I can't stand. I will wear them everyday until they are more worn in and try mink oil to condition and soften them.

Boots never fit perfectly but these actually did (fat babies don't) I will say however the ankle/shaft is quite big so that was unfortunate. I could get over that but I'm returning bc I'm afraid at my age (48) it looks like I'm trying too hard for attention with white boots. Although it is a lovely shade of white not too bright not too anything but just right.

I am a true narrow width and unfortunately these were not narrow enough for me. I was hoping that based on reviews of these running narrow I could swing it... This is the only reason I am not keeping them! They are so cute in person and I love the ease of having a side zip.

I love these little boots and purchased them in white and tan in the wide width, as i have bunions to cover. The white ones fit perfectly, and I love wearing them. The tan ones are a different type of leather, sturdier, a bit stiffer, not as much "give" over the ball of the foot. Just a bit too tight, and i don't think they will stretch and soften in my lifetime of wear. If your foot is a tad narrower, you will love this adorable boot.

I LOVED these boots but sadly have to return them. The right foot is way too tight over the top/arch of my right foot. Seems like a common complaint. I chose a size up and still was uncertain these would ever stretch enough to be comfortable. I bill be returning and trying another style. I like the ease of ordering and returning through Zappos!

They were cute and SUPER comfortable, but I did not like the color so I returned them. But did I mention that they were SUPER comfortable?

Very cute short boots; nice style. However the heel is too high for me. I felt very unsteady in them. I returned them because of the heel height.

The shoes are lovely, however, they run very narrow even though I ordered wide. They also felt shorter than the stated size. Will have to send them back. Rubber heels detract from the overall value.

Very cute -- great deep red color, great style, but way too narrow. I am always a medium width, and these are certainly more narrow than a standard medium. They are well made with leather lining and a moderate western style (nice stitching, no bling). They were just what I wanted, and, sadly, I have to return them. At the moment there are no wide boots available. If you have a narrow foot, definitely get these boots!

I thought the boots were comfortable. I ordered the size I usually wear and they fit well. I'm disappointed to return them but the heel was a little higher than I'm comfortable with, living in snow and ice country.

My foot is on the wide side, so I knew that ordering the medium width was taking a chance. But I loved the red color and was hoping that they would fit. It was laughable how narrow they were and how nonexistent the chances were that my feet would fit in them. Beautiful boots, but just not an option for me :-(

So disappointed that I couldn’t keep them loved the look/style but sizing is not true to other Ariats I’ve owned before. My size was too short and the next size up was too wide and roomy, the heel cup was too loose and slipped up and down enough to cause blisters. Having trouble getting app to let me return so I guess I’ll have to call.

Form over function. I have been getting so many compliments on these red boots, they look terrific. I like how they look with pants, leggings, and dresses. I wish the soles and the bottom of the boots were better quality, like leather soles or other "real" cowboy boots. There are plastic ad they do not absorb shock well. They do not flex well if you want to walk a little faster or be on rugged terrain. These are not exactly comfortable either. I often choose comfort over style (Danskos, Keens, etc) and I very much like these for the style NOT the comfort. I want to take them off right away at the end of the day
