Customer Reviews Ariat Ascent

Love, Love, Love the look but I did return because it was too high on my arch. I also purchased the Devon paddock boot and feel I have the same problem. I know it will give some but wondering if I should size up a half a size as now two boots fit the same way. Any advice on how to size for a high arch or is there another line I should try?

These are by far the most comfortable boot to work in and be in the ground in. Ok for in the saddle. Not nearly the ankle support you get in traditional paddock boots, and not as easy to push your heels down in. They run large. I went an half size down. Other wise extremely light weight and comfortable. Not sure how durable they will be though

I bought these boots to save and use as my nice shoes for grooming at shows after getting tired of my sneakers looking dirty after a couple weeks. A year later I cannot take them off! I bought a second pair to keep nice so I can keep the old ones as daily work boots. They are comfortable and give great support. The fabric is a bit hard to keep clean and they are tight in the ankle to get on but once they are on they are the best! And they seem to tolerate water without falling apart so sponging off the fabric ankle part occasionally has worked pretty good. I definitely recommend these as daily boots on the ground and if I was better at keeping my riding boots clean I would definitely use them for that.

I bought the Ascent WATERPROOF paddock boots @1month ago. I absolutely loved them and wore them everyday at least in the am when the grass is wet. I own a dog boarding business and a dog rescue so I am basically outside all the time. Zero break in time. Fabulous boot EXCEPT.... no longer WATERPROOF! I am so disappointed. They were perfect and I bought them only bc they were advertised as Waterproof. They are leaking around the bottom where the sole is in front and side of boot on both feet.. Added pics of my wet socks...

Ive been wearing this boot ever since it was introduced. Im on my 3rd pair and I love them.

I bought the waterproof ascent boot to use for my barn job. They have good cushion and are very comfortable to wear for hours. I love that you can also ride in them! They are multifunctional which is great in the horse world.

Comfortable and nice to use for riding. Not super easy to get on and off.

I bought these to go with the matching half chaps. They fell apart before the year warranty was up, so Ariat replaced them. The next pair lasted about a year. The glue doesn't hold up to the heat of summer.

Very lightweight and comfortable. Ive only worn them once and right now theyre very snug and a little hard to get on and off. Im sure when theyre broken in theyll be perfect.

I'm a big Ariat fan and have wanted thse boots for ages, but tbh, I'm a bit disappointed. I've worn them for a month now and I'm still using a shoe horn to get them on and off. They are probably not for you if you have a high arch. However, once on they are very comfortable. They do look and feel a bit plasticy and the badges adhered to the elastic part have already started to come off. As always, Ariat come up a little large so an 8 fits me perfectly.

Love riding in these rather than tall boots! Theyre tighter than I expected and they squeak like rain boots, hence the 4 stars.

Comfortable enough to wear all day, quick to break in, all arpund great boot. Unfortunately, less than a year and the sole is starting to come off. I constantly have sand in there, not to mention the stains on my socks! Only the right boot, the left is fine.I expected better quality for the price, Ariat.

Hot. Doesnt breathe. Still stiff after several wearings.

I've worn Ariat boots for over 30 years and I wasn't impressed with these. They are very comfortable, true to size and easy to put on however, they started coming apart after just a few months of regular use. The sole was separating at the toe. I also found that these have no temperature regulation whatsoever. If it's hot out, my feet are hot. If it's cold out, they're cold. I like the concept but the design needs improvement.

I like the shoe BUT they're impossible to put on and take off!!! The elastic at the top is so tight I will never buy again sorry Ariat!

These boots are a great fit, but the sock portion has detached from the sole, only 5 months into purchase. Extremely disappointed.

Shoes too small and tight. I thought these would be like like the Ascent paddock boots which are like wearing waterproof sneakers that are close fitting at the top to not allow hay/dirt to fall into the shoe. Wore them for 1 hour and had blisters in my heels. Tried a larger size and still uncomfortable so returned them

Bought the waterproof version just over 4 months ago. At first I'd say they have been my favourite yards boots I've ever had. Super comfy, warm, great for everyday on the yard and riding. After the first couple of months noticed they were leaking and leaving my socks wet at edges of feet. As days went on the inside of edge of the right boot started coming away at the sole. Currently going through process of getting a refund/replacement but unfortunately now no stock in my size for a replacement. Looking at other reviews it seems a common issue that the soles come away after a few months which is shame. For the price I'd have hoped they'd last longer, I could forgive short lifespan had the purchase price been lower.

Love the concept of these boots great price but I have wider feet and the sqeezed the living lights out of my pinkie toe. I am 14 and working tworad shows. this is my second paid of paddock boots. Not for people with even slightly wide feet. Would definitely recommend getting a size or 2 up than what the size guide says.

I ordered the same size as my Ariat terrain boots, and wow. I could not get my foot past the tiny ankle, so could not get them on at all. So disappointed.

So sad because a friend bought the full size boot and had zipper. This goes on like scuba booties. Literally took 15 min to get one boot on so not going to work in florida humidity this spring. Sending back...

I love Ariat products but sadly my boots fell apart. The rubber sole started coming off at the toe area causing my foot to get wet every time I walked through even the smallest amount of water

Hot. Doesn't breathe. Still stiff after several wearings.

The boowere beautiful, and well made. Unfortunately i couldn't even get them on. I have returned them. I may try ordering half a size up, but it was very frustrating getting boots the same size as all of my other Ariat boots and nit even be able to get my foot past the neck of the boot. If it is necessary to order a size up or more, that should be noted. However, if the sizing is the standard, maybe the neck of the boot needs a bit of a redesign so that they are not a struggle to put on.

Purchased these a few months back and they are super hard to put on! They remind me of something you would put on to scuba dive?? I only wear them occasionally because of the fit . I only ride in Ariats and I know I wear a 9.5. ) I would suggest at least a 1/2 bigger. ) I paid a ton for them and they pretty much just sit there
