I got these shoes to walk to work, which is about 3/4 of a mile away. I liked them because they are waterproof and seem to have good traction. I've already worn them in the rain and light snow. The traction was ok, and the waterproof was great. These hit my shins kind of hard when I first got them, but after wearing them for a couple days, they seem broken in. I wear a 7.5 in Timerlands, and I got the 7.5 in these. They fit great.

These are gorgeous boots, and they're waterproof besides! But there's no zipper, so these slide on, and although they fit today I was worried that they'd stretch out too much later on. The main reason I reluctantly sent them back is that I was looking for more of a burgundy color, and the cordovan is too brown.

I loved these boots when I first slipped them on, but as I walked around the house, my toes began to feel a little cramped. The toe box is long, but not particularly wide. For me, almost a W foot, these boots don't have quite enough room.
The leather, the look, the heel are all perfect. They are not overly heavy, which is possible in these sturdier boots.
I really want to keep, but am worried about the width. I have other boots, Latigo, that have have a round toe and manage to have all the room I need, so I think these boots are just a smidge narrow in the toe box.

Love this boot but sizing is off. I am a 7.5 all day long and the 7.5 were too long but good in the width so I ordered a 7 and it was perfect in the length but too narrow in the width. I have multiple Ariat boots (tall) and a cruiser and another shoe - all 7.5 regular. Might try a 7 wide but I am skeptical.
It is odd as I tried these on in a tack shop in Ocala when visiting my sister but I had no room to in my luggage so I ordered the 7.5 when I got home - too big/different fit.

I know these style boots aren't super feminine but they looked wide, clunky and unfeminine. Also for how burly they appear, there's not a lot of sole between my foot and the ground. Not impressed with this brand.
I'd also recommend:

A very nice looking boot. The foot area is definitely narrow but long and the space around the ankle/lower leg is big. I think once they're broken in they'll be comfy and a good boot. They're warm due to the waterproofing.

Beautiful shoe just didn't fit my foot right- I got wide because my foot is wide at toes but narrow at heel - and the heel was just very very loose - just not comfortable for my weird foot

The color of Java is darker with different color accent I wasn’t expecting. I’m not sure I’ll keep it just because I was expecting a more solid/uniform color

Returned because the boot wasn't supportive or structured enough.

Beautifully made boot but the sole is so stiff boot doesn't flex comfortably while walking. My heel slides up and down inside the boot due to stiff sole.

Got this in in my normal size, medium and wide widths. The wide was nominally wider throughout but still not wide enough in the toebox to be comfortable. They run about a half size big so my heel slipped up in both widths. If the toebox weren't an issue I would've tried sizing down half a size but they just weren't the right shape for my feet.

This was a very stiff boot. Tried wearing it around the house and it didn't make the cut. My feet were happy to be out of the boot.

I liked the style of these boots but the top hit my shin with every step which was very uncomfortable. They left red marks on my legs after only 20 minutes of wear. Had to return them.

I have always bought my work boots from a brick and mortar store at size 6.5 Wide. Ordered online and these are tight at the toes, can feel the toe cap. Was told to let them "stretch" a bit, but now too worn to return . Lesson learned. Just know this style of Ariat runs more narrow.

I used the recommended sizing. I ordered 2 sizes, 1 pair in the size and width recommended and a 2nd pair 1/2 size larger. Both pairs are way too narrow. Disappointed

Well made comfortable boot. My daughter’s Heel slipped in a way she didn’t like but that happens in boots and isn’t unique to this one. (She’s not a boot wearer generally.)
Only thing I didn’t love was the white stitching that really stands out, but that would darken with wear.

I love my waterproof boots! They kept my feet warm and dry without visible external markings/damage after tromping around in our recent winter snow. They're attractive and don't look like functional boots, they look like they were designed for fashion. They're a bit narrow on my wide feet--I wish I'd gone a half size up--but they're breaking in well.

These boots are worth every penny! I've had knee replacement in both my knees and I live somewhere that has very snowy winters and I was looking for a pair of boots that would not bother my knees and work with our weather. I ordered these with skeptism. Wow! So glad I ordered them. Easy to put on, weather proof, salt doesn't stain the leather, they are soft and easy to walk in, overall...best boot Ive ever owned and they are very stylish! Thanks Ariat!

I love these boots! I bought them right before a trip to Santa Fe, NM in the fall. They needed about an hour of break in but now they are super comfortable. They are great for when you want comfort, traction, waterproofing, and ankle height but don’t want winter insulation.

Love these boots! They're so comfortable to walk and the size fits just right. The contrast accent color makes them look so beautiful, high end and pricey. Great quality and value for the amazing price paid; got them on sale. Extremely happy and satisfied customer highly recommend!

These are the most comfortable Chelsea boots I've even worn when it comes to the sole and support of the shoes. The inside tag above the ankle will rub the heck out of your skin, so you need to wear a tall enough sock or be rubbed raw. Otherwise, they're great. Easy off/on for anyone who has a high instep - that's my main issue with Chelsea boots that are pull on/off and don't offer a zipper. I haven't tested the waterproof part yet since I live in California but I'm sure they'll be up to the test.
