Customer Reviews Ariat Intrepid Venttek CT

I purchased this boot from a retailer less than a year ago. I loved the pull on style and comfort strait out of the box. The tread is aggressive enough for mud and snow traction. I took care of the boots with mink oil on a regular basis which I thought would help with longevity but I had leather separation on both boots in the same spot where the boot meets the soles. Not surprising that when I tried to get them replaced and returned at the retail store that I bought them, they wouldn't help me out. I contacted Ariat support and they were willing to work with me to get them replaced under warranty. Hopefully this review will help them figure out how to make these more Stout.

The boots are super comfortable but the heel on the inside is already ripping out after 3 months and for 240 bucks they should hold up a lot better

Bought these around a year ago and took what seems like many months to break in, almost to the point of giving up on them. After broken in they were Ok until they started falling apart recently

Loved the way the boot looked. Needed a good work boot for the ranch. Read a few bad reviews but decided to try them anyways. Boot was a terrible fit as the safety toe was pushing hard against my foot.

I bought these last year. They are good for dry environments not wet. The soles are glued to the leather not stitched. Sole seperated once they got wet.

This boot is awesome, except for the composite toe is too narrow. Ariat.. if a person has wide feet. Then make a wider toe area to go with it.

I have had these for a year. Soles are cracking. I expect better wear out of these. With the construction Process, you can't even get these re-soled. Expensive "Throw away" Boots......

I have had this boots for over a year still look new because I don't like the way you can feel the toe. Very annoying.

I had these boots for 7 months the boot holds up but the sole cam off the boot, for as much as these boots cost to work in figure they might last longer I have had cheaper boots last longer than these comfortable boots though

Size runs ok, tread does not last in a truck shop environment tread splinters and rips off. Do not recommend for shop environment

Upon receiving my boots I noticed a couple things like the fitment. They really didn't fit my foot right. I definitely wasn't happy with the cost compared to comfort.

I brought these and they are breaking apart from the heal to the front of them and the bottom of them. The quality of them are not very well. Before buy them the reviews said they would do that and I thought maybe just a bad pair so I tried them anyway that was a big mistake.

Not comfortable at all, normally I love my arait boots. I own 4 pair. However this is the first pair that actually hurt my feet. The toes are a weird shape and the composite cover cuts into my toes. And a wider boot would be to big. So now I'm stuck with boots I'll never wear again.

Boots suck, don't waste your money. Go with the Big Rigs.

I previously had a pair which were great boots but obviously wore out with time. So I purchased another pair that were the exact same size. They didn't fit they're huge. And I already had removed the tags etc because who wouldn't expect the same exact size to fit that did before. So my mistake. They're no stores locally that carry a decent selection or size range. So I depend on being able to order online which I can't do because they have no consistency. This is the second time this happened. The first was a different style of boot. But considering that again my size 10 got me a boot that felt like a 15 I should have not tried again but how can you anticipate having two pair side by side that are the same size right now and the new ones are too big? Way too big

I bout a pair and within a month they have quarter sized chunks missing. Used lightly. Definitely would recommend something else for work. They are comfortable, but ive owned 5 pair of ariat work boots and only the two most recent pairs have had this issue. Maybe a new type of rubber. A coworker is also having the same problem.

Bought a pair in July, was super excited about them but about three months later the heel had completely come apart making it nearly impossible for me to get the boot off of my foot. Sadly I can't wear them.

I bought this boots around 6 months everything was good for the first couple months,until the leather in toe started to peel.Then a big piece of the heel somehow ripped making the boot very uncomfortable useless.Don't recommend this is my second pair and both have not lasted for more than 6 months

I have been wearing this boots for about 3 weeks now and today they have caused massive blisters in both my heels!!!! I have been wearing ariat for years and im a huge fan of venttek and i have never had this issue before. I know my sizing is right, this is easily my 9th pair of ariat work boots so this is completely unnaceptable. A refund should be issued for this. A work boot is not supposed to harm you after a long work day!

I bought these boots about 8 months ago, the inside heel area is ripping apart. Expected more from Ariat, I work them hard but they should be able to at least last a year.

I have had these boots now for a year and still get sores on my heel. Had them stretched out in the heel twice and is only a temporary fix.

I've been wearing safety toe boots of various brands for about 20 years now. These are hands down the most uncomfortable boots I've ever worn. I was in a situation where I needed a quick set of work boots and these were the only safety toe boots available in my size at the time and location. So I had to wear them new for about 7 days straight of 12hr shifts. After the first day the blisters on both heels were so bad I could barely walk. The seam at the rear of the heel is terrible. I suffered through the next few days with blister pads and advil hoping that maybe they would break in... not the case. I tried them again for about an hour around the house to setup some Xmas decorations about 2wks later and immediately was in pain again. Very disappointed, especially considering the price tag on these boots.

I've had these boots for a little over a year and the bottom of the boot already cracked on the bottom and just not a dependable pair I have bought another pair before these and they were great

Roomier toe box...........for who?? Had to order these as no one carried them in a 2e. Tried them on and there was barely room in the toe box, and two of my toes were touching the compost toe. The only way this could be a roomier toe box is if you removed the insole and who could wear them like that. If you have wide feet and have trouble with the safety toe on other boots don't expect these to be your answer.
