Customer Reviews Ariat Groundbreaker Chelsea Wide Square Toe H2O

I love my boots! Excellent fit and very little fatigue after a 10 hr shift . I am an auto mechanic, always around oil and fluid spills, these boots passed the test.

Great boots, I got them to use as winter boots. I can't wait to get the non waterproof ones for summer !

The boots are just what I thought they would be - durable, weather proof, easy to slip on and off, and have a great sole

I am a Plumbing apprentice, and the first week in these boots were amazing! 0 Break in time just slip on and go. they are lightweight which allows you to wear them for 9-10 hours a day with out getting fatigued. extremely water proof, and they also look great. They are not Steel Toe which was a mistake on my part by not reading but they are great for doing plumbing fixtures, and when you're running low weight pipe. I'm a huge fan and have been wanting to try these boots for a few months now and boy am I happy with my purchase.

I had to order these 4 times to finally receive these. I guess that should say something, they are that good! I have 3 different types of Groundbreaker boots and I hope they never discontinue them! It's like wearing runners to work! I've tried alot of different work boots and nothing matches these for comfort. If I do find out they are being discontinued, it will buy enough to last rest of my career, yes they are that good!

I bought these boots about two months ago and I wear them everyday. Just as comfortable as most shoes. My favorite pair of boots by far.

Very comfortable boot, leather quality very good, outsole and flexible very good. The only reason why it looses a star is because waterproof did not hold up after 2 months of use, small amount of water gets inside the boot. With my working conditions being 50/50 dry and wet a little disappointing. Overall good solid boot.

Boots are nice fit good, I use orthotics fittings and a lot of moving setting resetting needs to happen before I find a sweet spot. Noticed they have not broken in as easy as my other ones.

December 2024 purchase. Replaced a well worn and much beloved pair of Georgia boots with this pair of Ariat work boots. These boots need no break in period. These boots are lighter than most non-steel toe boots, of which I own several pairs. I am in my late 60s and these boot were comfortable right out of the box. I do general DIY and light construction work to maintain rental properties. We'll see how long these last.

Was told they are very comfortable! And this is the second pair

Boots are very well made and should last forever! The only negative, and I have had the same problem with other Ariat boots, is that in the first week or two of wearing them, they stretch out and become huge on my foot! I just slip in an inexpensive insole and I'm good to go. But the excessive stretching out is strange.

Order a size 9 EE, my normal shoe size is 9.5 and it's a little big, but Good quality and very comfortable.

Very comfortable boot, I have been wearing these everyday for work for the last few months. I am on my feet all day and am very satisfied with their comfort. Hopefully they will eventually get these in black leather. The only downside I see as of having them a while now is that the leather doesn't seem to be as durable as my other Ariat boots.

So far so good. Boots are comfortable. Too early to tell as far as the durability. Only issue I have is my feet get hot. Not sure what the difference is. Never happened with my old full length pull on boots.

Overall awesome slip on work boot. Comfortable, not to heavy, waterproof, grounded and easy on the feet. Not bad as far as break in period because honestly the boot did not have a break in period at all. I just slipped them on and away I went into boot wonderland. I would recommend these boots to any worker who are on their feet 12hrs plus or even just an 8hr day. I am on ladders, lifts and more and these boots complete the job and are great on my feet. Also I wear a regular 10.5 shoe and I got a size smaller and it fit perfect.

Size runs big when getting the wide, could almost drop a half size. Other than that they are comfortable.

Runs a little big. Otherwise it's a very high quality boot. Comfortable and stylish.

this is my third pair I am ordering because they fit well, but shouldn't they really hold up more than 15 months?

too bad it is less than two years later and I have to order another pair as these both rotted out around the sides

The product seemed of good quality. The size ran small and narrow. I ordered wide and they were very tight on my feet

I only wear boots in the winter time. I work in a bodyshop so they barely see water or mud but 2 months in the stitching inside the heel is coming loose leaving me a sore and the sole is starting to come loose from the toe. Not happy because it's getting to where I can't wear them anymore because of the heel stitching coming loose

Not so waterproof maybe water resistant but not fully waterproof. Good looking boot but could be better

This is a great pair of boots have bought a few in the past however this last purchase was made in march of 2025 and it came apart out of nowhere at a job site, The damage was only on one side from the bottom as shown in the photo last few pairs lasted more then 1year however this was not a good pair of work boots

Box says 9 but boots are size 8. I need to return for correct size.

Boots scuff easily with minimal use these are supposed to be work boots I should be able to wear them everyday without them getting scuffed permanently from walking. Barely worked in them yet already disappointed
