These boots are still new but I am loving them! Got them in black. I am always looking for a good slip on safety toe and the carbon fiber is awesome. There is lots of cushion with the factory insoles which is great and not always the case in a pair of boots. The carbon fiber toe is a must for anyone who flies and has to wear their safety shoes. No more de-booting at security!
Stylish enough to wear to and from the mill and while traveling, slip-on is a must for me, comfortable enough to wear all the time, waterproof, and carbon fiber for easy passing at security.....checks all the boxes, overall great boots so far! If my opinion changes as they wear in I will update my review.

They fit as I expected. Hopefully you will carry more EE's as the wide is better on my foot.
I'd also recommend:
Ariat is by far the best out there!!

Good boot. Comfortable, roomy toe box and well cushioned. The fit is typical of a slip on so make sure you get the correct size because you can’t tighten them up. I’ve only had them a week so I can’t comment on their durability so we’ll see.

These are work boots - they’re definitely not as comfortable as the Timberland chelsea boot I’ve worn for the last 4-5 years. Unfortunately Timberland seems to have discontinued those so here I am. These boots come very stiff. After several hours of wear over a few days’ time they’re beginning to loosen up and it’s getting easier to put them on and take them off. Width is critical with these. For some reason Zappos recommended regular width for me (I guess based on my old Timberlands?) but regular doesn’t cut it (I’ve almost always had to buy EE/wide shoes so if you usually wear regular width, buy regular; if you generally need wide shoes do not buy these in regular). So far quality seems good - I expect that from Ariat. My feet do get fairly hot in these but otherwise I like them so far.

I've seen these cut in half to know how they are made and as a boot guy and are exactly what I would expect from Ariat. They really are a great value for price and I don't have to question the quality, though the upper is not as rugged as your more traditional constructed boots, but those cost twice as much if not more. There's very little break in period since they are of modern construction and more like a sneaker boot hybrid.

These boots are perfect for me. They are comfortable and sturdy, and I feel like I'll be able to get years of use out of them. It's the first time I've owned Ariat boots but I think I finally see what all the fuss is about! Excellent construction and quality, once I got the right size I feel like the fit is going to make those long work days a breeze.

I have been a red wing guy since I started working back in 2003. I have gone through numerous pairs of boots from red wing and they never really broke in properly. I was watching Sonne Farms video on YouTube and Cole did a promotion on Ariat. I purchased the turbo Chelsea and I'm so glad I did. Fit is perfect, no laces which I know prefer and just an unbelievably comfortable boot. Highly recommend!

Overall a great Chelsea work boot, toe box is open and comfortable, I added my own arch-supporting insoles , also added the protective toe hard material, and had to give them a shine.

Boots are great but this is the third pair of boots I’ve order from Zappos and gotten an LPN tag, that means they’re returned. Not a big deal but should be disclosed to the purchaser if that’s the case.

I ordered a full size up because they're kinda tight to put on. Once they're on, they're great.

As a chef I was looking for boots that are safe for the kitchen, durable, and comfortable for 10 hour plus days. Found em right here! These lasted me 2 yrs and 8 mths (can still wear em, but heal is thinning). Just bought another pair today, this time without the carbon toe hoping they're a bit lighter. Best work boots I have ever had.

These boots last me a good six-eight months at most. I work in all type of terrains. They holdup as they should, they're light weight and super comfortable. The carbon toe has done its job plenty of times for me. Would 100% recommend these. They also look nice.

This was my second pair of Ariat boots and once again, I was not disappointed. My first pair were the Wexford Waterproof Chelsea Boot. I talked about my list of "wants" and how I found an Ariat boot that checked every box. See my review for those.
For my second pair of Ariats, I had a comparably long but slightly different list of "wants". This time, instead of a going to town boot, I was looking for a cattle ranching, daily wear work boot. Comfort and retention were #1 and #2 requirements. My use case was wearing these for everything on the farm; muck, barn and pasture chores and cattle work. These boots were going to see a lot more mud and water so they needed to have more traction and stay on my feet.
I wanted more of a roper style, rounded toe western boot. I wanted quick in and out but I also wanted secure fit when worn. I wanted waterproof so I wasn't getting soaked in rain or ultra-muddy conditions like a Virginia winter and spring thaw. Fit and finish are very good. They have the look and style I wanted. These are very comfortable. The soles (ATS Tech) have good grip to handle slippery and uneven terrain but lugs are not so deep as to collect giant mud clods. I don't worry about traction or losing my footing. They are cushiony and comfortable even with all day wear.
They were a bit stiff when new and even with a boot hook, it took some effort to get into them. But since I had the same experience with my first pair, I wasn't nervous about it this time. After maybe half a dozen ins and outs, they loosened up. Just like my other pair, once they are on, they are secure on my feet.
If I am allowed to mention other brands, I selected these Ariat boots to replace my Avenger 7108 slip-on composite tow waterproof shoes. When new, the Avengers stayed on my feet and felt secure in semi-muddy conditions but that did not last. Unlike the Ariats, within maybe 6 months of regular wear, the Avenger leather stretched out to the point where they felt like a half or whole size too big. That translated to my feet sliding around when working active cattle and the shoes getting pulled off my feet in muddy conditions which was becoming as dangerous as it was annoying. Granted, I am comparing shoes and boots. The Avengers are not bad per se. But the Ariats give me the same capability, comfort, convenience and more. And the Ariats have not lost any of that performance or capability over time. So, for me, the Ariats are a better value and a more satisfying purchase.

I am impressed by this well made and comfortable chelsa boot. I am able to boot up quickly to secure things which have broken lose and to remove tree branches fallen from the recent storms (pineapple express cyclones). Luckily no down powerlines but it is n ice to know that the boots are waterproof and electrical hazard safe. But even without the wind and rain, this boot is great for the quick chores and on uneven ground (fields). I wear a size D and have a narrow heals; this boot fits securely, my heal does not slide around. Sizing is right on (make sure you allow for heavy weight socks if you use them).
This boot however does not replace the lace up boot needed for chain sawing, pick axe, etc).

These are the most durable pair of work boots I've ever owned. Waterproof with a carbon toe and still very lightweight.
