I'd searched for the perfect waterproof boot for at least a year and finally settled on these for function and stylethey were going to be my everywhere and always boots. Ordered a wide based on sizing recommendations and the fact that my feet have collapsed since pregnancy mistake! The toe box was right, but the heel was gigantic and slipped like crazy! Maybe it's just me, but the proportions were whack, way more than could be fixed by breaking them in. Bummer.

Boots are a little big, not true to size, & you do not get the first purchase discount like they state...very disappointed!

I want to love these boots so much. I read many reviews to ensure I got the right size. Since they say the boots run true to size and I never wear a wide shoe, I got an 8 like I always wear. I kept thinking they'll stretch as the comments say they will, but they're still too tight. I'm disappointed because I was so excited about these boots!

It rubs on my leg so badly. So sad I can't return.

This boot is beautifully made. While they look beautiful and are well made they are extremely uncomfortable. The top of the boot cut the skin in the back of my leg and left a mark around my leg where it scraped. I wore them 3 days in a row to an event and my feet hurt and I could barely walk afterwards. I tried stretching the top with a boot stretcher and that did not work either.

Too big and can't exchange. I was really looking forward to them and I'm having a hard time sending them back because I got them with a discount. They are just too big but they seem comfortable. I wear a 7.5 in your brand's boots and it says true to size so I ordered what I typically wear in other shoes and ordered a 8. Not sure if I will purchase them again when I ship them back. The other thing is they look super long on my feet so they really don't look good with skinny pants which is the other reason I wanted this pair and a comfy pair of boots to be able to throw on.

I so wanted these to work. But the top of the boot cut in on the ankle. Even with the elastic panel, I couldn't see myself wearing them without getting blisters or rub marks on my ankle. I guess if you have skinny legs these would work for you but I have thick athletic legs and one ankle is sensitive due to a break, and so back they went.

I have had them for less than a year- I got them of November 2021 & the sole + thread is coming undone. Before they started breaking they were a very comfortable all day boot. I'm super bummed that it's been less than a year & they're already falling apart not something I'm used to with Ariat.

These boots are attractive, but they are very stiff and the sizing is off. I've worn them multiple times, but they still haven't broken in, which is uncharacteristic for Ariats. I also had to order them in sizes 7, 7.5, and 8 to find the right fit because the toes seem to run at least a size narrower than the heel. I ultimately picked the smallest size because the heels were too big and boxy on the other sizes and used a leather stretcher to loosen the toe area. I'm wishing I had just returned them instead because I barely wear them. I find myself reaching for my Dubarry boots whenever I need to wear a waterproof chelsea boot as the Dubarry's are much more comfortable and attractive.

Wasn't waterproof like advertised. Was super disappointing for the price I paid. Although I do like the style.

These shoes run huge. They were two sizes larger than they should have been and when I tried to return them the website would not work and I had to call 3 times to get a return label. Super disappointing. The shoes looked nice though

While these boots fit, the tread was very inflexible, causing a cramp up the side of my lower leg within an hour.

They were very big and clunky, not very soft and didn't quite mold to my feet, felt stiff like I was in ice skates

I wear size 8 in every brand of shoe, and this was the size recommended by Ariat. Long story short, I went through FOUR SIZES of these boots, none of which fit. 8, 7.5, and 7 slipped massively in the heel while also being too tight in the toe. This was still after trying different socks and shoe inserts. The 6.5 finally did not slip, but was impossibly tight. All four pairs had little cushioning in the sole, and my feet hurt after just a few minutes of trying them on. I had high expectations for these boots and was thoroughly disappointed by the sizing issues and overall quality. I have never had such a problem purchasing any other shoes and can't understand why Ariat was so difficult. All four pairs ended up being returned.

I was disappointed in the quality of the Chelsea Boot. I ordered the boots in April. Six months later, in September, the outersoul is separating from the soul on the two pairs I own. I wore these boots a few time a week, but not everyday. I loved the look and style of these boots. I'm disappointed they didn't last longer.

be cautious buying online, if you need to return an item. takes time for refund and if you question a refund they send screenshots of a spreadsheet showing refund approval, but no indication of your money being refunded, after checking account balance and no refund, they can't help you and suggest contacting your banking company?

I was so excited when I found these boots, I know of Ariat as a solid brand and when they arrived I was not disappointed in the quality of the boot. I don't usually wear wide shoes, but sometimes I do in brands that run narrow, in these I tried on both the 10M and 10W, the 10M was extremely narrow in the toe, the 10W fit me well. I wore them around my house and even for a day at work, just around on the carpeting, and all was well. I bought these boots in the hopes of taking them as my primary shoe on a trip to Ireland I'm taking in July. My first indication that these boots might not work for me was when I wore them all day running errands, I got home and my feet especially the balls of my feet were just aching. I thought maybe it was a fluke so I tried again wearing them for an afternoon of walking around at a porch fest, and again my feet were ACHING by the end of the day. It's really disappointing because now that they have been worn outside I can't return them, but they are now useless to me since they hurt my feet so badly. I even tried switching out the insoles, but no dice. Huge waste of money, and very disappointing from a brand I've always considered top notch for comfort and quality.

I've had these boots for 2 months and they're falling apart. I am a veterinarian and wear these almost daily. The seems are falling apart and flaking from the heel.

I ordered this product and two weeks later it has still not even shipped. I contacted customer service through their portal with no response. I emailed customer service with no response. I called customer service and had to hang up after 53 minutes because I could no longer wait on hold. Terrible customer service - fail to ship and fail to respond. Meanwhile, my credit card has still been charged.

Huge ankles. They are 5 inches wider than my ankle so they flop around.

I have always bought my work boots from a brick and mortar store at size 6.5 Wide. Ordered online and these are tight at the toes, can feel the toe cap. Was told to let them "stretch" a bit, but now too worn to return . Lesson learned. Just know this style of Ariat runs more narrow.
