Both the toes have started to separate from the soles.

Excellent boots. Comfortable out of the box. These have been my go to footwear since purchasing.
Sadly only 3 stars as despite all of the good points the soles began peeling off after 6 months. For the price I would expect to see them last considerably longer. Contacted Ariat support but so far no response after a couple weeks. Hoping I received a bad pair as I'm a big Ariat fan

I get a kick when a company markets themselves as cowboy and american this and blue collar that and send a $200 pair of boots made in China. No surprise the fit was borderline comical. 2 sizes too long while also being 2 sizes too narrow. If you are frustrated having a hard time finding boots thar are size 12 length and size 8 width, look no more because these are the boots for you.

Not as comfortable as I was hoping. Not enough arch support. And there is slipping in my left heal. I expected more for the price.

I bought these at the beginning of April of 2022. They were very comfortable right out of the box, absolutely no break-in period. I had very high hopes for these, I have heard a lot of good things about Ariat. I wore them for about 6 months straight, everyday and everywhere. I love how quick it is to put them on and my feet do not slip around. I would say they run true to size. However, after the 6 months, they started to fall apart. I'm not sure if I got a fluke, but the front lip of the sole starting peeling and the heel siding started to rip off. I really thought they would last longer, especially for this price. I kept wearing them, but they just got worse.
If you get these, I highly suggest wearing them casually and occasionally. They are super comfortable and the leather seems like good quality. I accidentally kicked something in my shop (several times, my fault) and it did not fully pierce the leather, although it caused some irreversible damage. The pull tab seems to be riveted on and is super solid. I was worried that I'd rip that thing off. The elastic also held up very well, which was surprising.
All in all, I would get them again if they were cheaper and only wear them occasionally.
3 stars because of lack of durability and price

Recieved my first pair and loved them! Wore them out and about plus doing some farm work for a week but unfortunately the wrapping on the heel came apart.
It was an easy exchange process and just received by second pair, excited to try these out again. Curious to see if they're as sturdy as my other boots.

For the first time I am a little disappointed in Ariat.
negative points: - The shoes are very heavy
- on tiled floors with a little water on it, like my balcony and the entrance hall, they change in ski's! very slippery
- they walk very heavy and slow too
- expensive
positive points: - high quality leather, will last forever and also flexible
- certainly waterproof
- they look beautiful
- very sturdy
- sizing is correct

I rarely wear them as they look a mess. First pair had the studs in the heel coming through and were unwearable but ariat were great and replaced them. 2nd pair very comfortable but like the first the leather strips on the heal just come away and they then look shabby. Hence they're just an expensive waterproof boot that I wouldn't wear out as smart casual. The first pair also did this with the heel.

I'm not sure if I got a faulty pair because the majority of reviews are great. After wearing these shoes around the yard for about an hour my toes start feeling worn out and honestly I can't wait to take these off. And these definitely aren't waterproof

Love the boot and it looks great but the leather in the heal and the rubber sole are all coming apart. Only been wearing them for a couple weeks. If they could fix this issue it would easily be 4 or 5 stars

I had such high hopes for these boots. They felt amazing when I first tried them on so I took a risk and wore them for my first 4 day trip. They are so heavy and clunky. Too big in heal area and allows for slip and pulls my socks down while being too tight across the mid foot/toe area. My legs are already tired after one day. They have great cushion and I love that they don't set off the metal detector but unfortunately these were not worth the investment. The search for a great waterproof boot continues.

Difficult one as I love Ariat products and I want to love these boots, but . as other reviews point out, the heel and sole are cheap. They are advertised as waterproof but the heel is a hard plastic with a fake leather, thin band on the outside then to make them look expensive. Once you've worn them a few times in the wet the band starts to come off and you're left with a clear, hard plastic heel showing and they look horrendous. I used a brown permanent pen to colour the heel in and make them ok. There are plenty of similar boots sold by other companies that had a solid rubber heel which would be much better. Sadly I won't buy these again as much as I like their look and fit.

This is a review after two years of wearing them often.
I rotated between my work boots, runners and these as my general footwear for the last two years.
The Pros;
They're comfortable, stylish and the weight is great. You can wear them for hours with no fatigue. The shank is good in it, gives good support and it never collapsed.The Leather seems really good on the upper and is very hard wearing. There's no real damage at all to that.
The Cons;
The build leaves a little to be desired at this price point. The heel went about six months ago and had to be replaced and the upper isn't stitched on the sole and that seperated a few times over the last two years. I would have expected better on this boot especially with the reputation Ariat have as I have others that have held up better for way longer.

These boots push on the top of your foot. Your foot goes a bit numb after a few hours of wear. Couldn't exchange since the tags had already been removed.

It took me quite a while to settle on these after my old blundstones gave up after three years. Really like the style and comfort of these boots, but unfortunately they aren't built to last. After a few months of light use, I was working on remodeling our deck and used the toe to kick and hold the deck board into place as I nailed it down. The upper completely separated from the sole. Disappointing to say the least. Will not be buying Ariats again.

I searched high and low, ordered about seven different types of Chelsea boots, trying to find some that were both comfortable and stylish. After all the selections, the Ariat sat on top. They were the best. I wanted boots with a stacked leather heel, hopefully waterproof, just general classic good looks.
Less than a year later, I go to put my boots on and notice a piece of leather hanging from the back. The stacked leather heel is just a sticker. It's not leather, it's a piece of plastic covered by "leather".

leather fell apart within 4-5 months of wearing lightly not what you would expect from a 'premium' boot.

Boot broke 3 days after I got them. Customer service and warranty process is a nightmare. I've been waiting for a response for over a month. Terrible quality and service.

I'm really disappointed with my Ariat boots. After only two wears, the heel started peeling. The heel has a leather veneer over plastic, and it's clear it will just fall off over time. I submitted a claim to customer service, but I didn't hear anything back for three weeks. When I finally tried calling to follow up, I was left sitting on hold for 30 minutes. Terrible quality and even worse customer service. I expected way better for the price.

Huge Ariat fan, and I have been looking for a pair of quality Chelsea boots. So when I found these I thought I hit the jackpot. Nope. The whole boot is fine except for the heel. The tread literally PEELED off and the fake wood sides did the same. I had these boots for a total of 4 days before I returned them.

I would love to give this boot a positive review. We were on vacation with some friends and one of the guys were wearing these boots. I thought that they were great. Terrific style and color. Asked if he would recommend them. Emphatic yes! Dude they are the best he said. I ordered them and was excited to get them delivered when we got home. Three days later I received an email saying they are on back order. Since, I've received dozens of emails. 0 about this boot being back in stock. Only trying to sell me something else.
