Customer Reviews Ariat Barnyard Twin Gore II Waterproof

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. I've found it necessary to reapply every week. There doesn't appear to be any tears or breaks in the seams, so I can only imagine the leather is not of very high quality. I don't 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 don't want to worry about the occasional splash here and there. But, they are NOT waterproof.

The stitching on the inside heel of the boot is coming apart after about one week.

I initially thought that this waterproof Barnyard TWIN Gore II paddock boot would be a great alternative. I had purchased 2 pairs in September, 2023, one for myself and one for my twin sister. They did not last 6 months. The leather began cracking in less than 3 months. The leather has broken away from the sole. My sister and I have always cleaned and dressed our boots after each wear. These were a great disappointment, my Heritage and Devon pro boots have lasted YEARS!

The way they are designed around the top will cripple a person, it bits into your shin and the back of the s ankle, there is no getting away from from it. I sent mine back immediately. Very very uncomfortable boots.
