I bought these boots and I am in love with them.
The boots needed absolutely no break in period. The were comfortable from the moment I tried them on. The first day I wore them I walked about 4 miles. No blisters and no hot spots. They get more comfortable by the day.
They are easy to keep clean. They look great clean and dirty. No issues in rain or mud.
I absolutely plan on purchasing these boots again.

These are very comfy for a full days work at the barn. They're great to just throw some half chaps on for schooling. I wear 8.5 slim in the contour field riding boot. A 9 in Keswick boot and an 8.5 in the Barnyard. Keep these clean and conditioned and they will last a long time. Abuse them and you get 2 yearsmaybe. I wear mine 4-5 times a week switching back and forth between the two. I like that the Barnyard is shorter than the Keswick. Neither one of these rubs my shin like some reviewers have commented. The footbed is very comfy. I do think the footbed in the Keswick is more comfortable though. It has excellent arch support. But I have both and interchange them and am a happy rider.

This boot is just fantastic. The fit is very true to size, and they are both comfortable to walk in all day as well as perfectly waterproof. I love that you can slip them on and off very easily. They are so versatile - I both work around the barn and ride in these boots. This is my second pair, after several years of extensive work in the first pair, they finally developed cracks, so I replaced them. I highly recommend these boots!

I love these boots! I ordered a size 6.5, concerned that they might be too narrow at the toe, but they are just the right width and quite sturdy. They're super comfortable and great for working at the barn. Highly recommend.

I have never written a review before and recently only came across Ariat by chance. I will not be going anywhere else from now on. These boots are so comfortable, I walk miles with our dog and had been having a lot of trouble with my feet, these have rectified the problems, they look great, not to heavy to wear, perfect ankle height, I would 100% recommend.

I have the dark brown older model. H20 performer pros. They're literally my most favourite boot of all time. I don't care what colour they are (although dark brown matches your half chaps!) as long as you keep the design the same.

I've had a pair of Ariat paddock boots for about 20 years, and they still have plenty of life in them. However my foot size has changed over the years and I needed to go up a size. These boots are perfect for heavy duty yard work. They fit comfortably and look great, and as far as I can tell will last as long as my originals. I'm extremely happy with them. I want from size 9.5 to 10 and these are a tiny bit large but that allows me to wear them with thick socks which works well for my sensitive feet.

I have been living in these boots since I got them. They are super comfy and have some support. They are great if you are in and out all day, gardening and such. The only issue is that the heels are a bit loose, but otherwise great if you are on your feet all day!

These are some of the most comfortable Ariats Ive ever experienced. I can wear them even with foot issues they are that comfy. Really nice for office to barn wear because they clean up super easy and I dont like changing shoes multiple times a day.

Honest review: These are great boots. Well made, very nice leather, soft enough out of the box and require zero break in time. They felt a little big to me, however, I wear orthotics, so when I removed the innersole and replaced it with my orthotics they were perfect. I work in gardens for others and on my own farm. I also have a (stupid) bunion. My boots need to be tough yet comfortable. These are replacing Redbacks, which I have loved and worn for 18 years. My reason for switching is that the new Redback boots are a stiffer leather than they used to be. I could barely get them on and off. The Ariats are easy in, easy out right from the start. The downside of the Ariat is there is very little real arch support, however, if you happen to wear your own orthotics, this is not a problem. I also used to hike in my Redbacks. The Ariat sole doesn't not have enough traction for hiking. I confess I like the look of Redback better, but I refuse to value style over comfort. Overall, these are a very good boot for my needs. I'm glad I bought them.

Love this boot, have worn this style for 20+ years. However, this latest pair has been a little bit of a struggle to break in - they're tight

These boots are so comfortable and warm. My feet stay dry in pouring soaking rain too. The only downfall is they pull my socks down off my feet. I haven't figured out how to stop that yet. So it's a pain to keep pulling my socks up all day.

I bought these for the barn, but love to wear them to work as a stylish and waterproof shoe on bad weather days.

I bought these boots on a bit of a whim because they seemed so comfy when I tried them on. I am SO glad I did. Not only are the super comfy, but theyve kept my feet warm and dry in some really awful weather. Keeping my feet warm is nearly impossible so Im beyond impressed! These are my new favorite boots.

I love these boots. I use them differently, Im a paramedic and am always looking for a high quality water resistant boot that is comfortable and doesnt break the bank or wear out within a few months. I bought a size 8 and true to size. Very comfortable.

These boots are great for barn chores. They are super comfy and easy to take on and off. I have gotten them wet and muddy and my feet have stayed dry. I have not worn them to ride but I did test to see if my half chaps fit over them and indeed they do! I am so fond of these I would wear them outside of the barn. I wish I had purchased these years ago.

This boot fits true to size, is very comfortable and provides stability over uneven terrain. I love that they are waterproof and have also not caused my feet to overheat.

Perhaps it is my mistake for thinking that waterproof actually means waterproof? They were great for about a month and then water started seeping in. I applied a high quality natural leather weatherproofing product which helped for about a week. Ive found it necessary to reapply every week. There doesnt appear to be any tears or breaks in the seams, so I can only imagine the leather is not of very high quality. I dont wear them in super wet conditions but I do need to walk through dewy cut grass each morning and the toes get wet- this is enough to soak into the inside and it takes days for them to dry out. I would expect more for the price. They are very comfortable and would be a great boot for super dry conditions when you dont want to worry about the occasional splash here and there. But, they are NOT waterproof.
