Customer Reviews Ariat Hilo Stretch Lace

I love these shoes! With super flat feet good shoes are hard to find, but I found them! These shoes are comfortable, secure, easy to slip on, and durable! Ill definitely be buying more designs!!

These run very large. Order 1.5 sizes smaller than a running shoe

Fit could be a bit better, but are comfortable and look the part!

Very comfortable shoe that looks good with pants or shorts. I also liked the large selection of colors and styles.

Most comfortable summer shoe! I bought these to wear with shorts as a dressier shoe. They are very comfortable! I have picky feet and was able to wear these with no socks all day with no issues.

I love these shoes. Made the switch to these from hey dudes and these are more comfortable and last considerably longer. I do wish the soles would last a little bit longer but for as soft and comfy as they are they're hard to beat

The good: Wide sizes available, Plenty of colors to choose from, SUPER comfortable. The bad: The outsole is not very durable.

Fits as expected for the size; very comfortable and stylish. Shipping was fast and accurate. Highly recomend this shoe if you are looking for an alternative to the "boat shoe"!

Well constructed shoe for warm weather. Easy on/off design.

I wear these every day now, its like cheating. I have a collection of boots at home and I find myself putting these in instead. These shoes are light, easy to put on and take off and they are so comfortable. I have two pairs now.

They are nice but not sure they fit my lifestyle. They are comfortable.

Still havent received the correct product. Was sent the wrong shoes. Comtactrd them. Sent WRONG shoes back. STILL HAVE NOT received the correct shoes. No emails from customer service. No updates. Nada.

This segment of the footwear market is a crowded one, and I have tried several brands. I was delighted to discover that Ariat had a line of ultra-light casuals, as Ariat is my go to brand. The soles are surprisingly supportive, with a thick and durable material. Multiple machine washings have always returned them to like-new condition with no fading. Great shoes! Just buy them.

This is my third pair of Hilo shoes, but these are far different than they used to be made. The back of the shoe is not reinforced like the other pairs were, so they don't hold their shape and collapse whenever they are put on. The material on the tongue is much thinner and constantly jamming underneath the laces. Disappointing compared to how they used to be made.

Not that comfortable. Can't replace the insoles, they are not removable

Looks great. Have received multiple compliments. Would purchase again

Unfortunately, the patterns didnt come close to matching on the shoes, to the point i couldnt bring myself to wear them, and I returned them. They also seemed to run big.

These are very comfortable shoes. They are well made and durable. Definitely won't be my last pair I purchase

Comfortable canvas dock shoe at a fair price. Have not worn much since purchasing so cannot attest to how they may hold up yet. Get back to me about mid summer

They are good product at fair price. They don't stand out but still make a statement.

These are a way better shoe than the competitor option(s) out there. It has an arch, real sole, and sides that are supportive yet its still comfortable like a slipper. My go to daily shoe!

Very comfortable, better than the other brands.... fit matches boot sizing.

I wore them all week at the NCBA convention and still a little stiff.

Overall I really enjoy these shoes. They are lightweight, sturdy and very comfortable. The only downside is the quality control. The pair I received had a small blemish on the toe of the left foot. Not worth going through the hassle of an exchange but slightly annoying. Overall very nice shoes.

tl;dr they are telling the truth when they say these will be your next daily drivers, especially once they are broken in. A few months back I got into the market for a general pair of shoes; not running shoes, not boots, just a something I could slip on and go, and be versatile enough to fit in multiple contexts (home, church, store, etc). I saw these and was hesitant at first: they aren't the style I tend toward. But I kept thinking that I wanted something easy to get on and comfortable for long periods of being on my feet. When I saw these in Dark Denim, I figured it was time to go for it and I'm glad I did. What I like: ~ These shoes are comfortable. They slip on and are good to go. The sole is robust enough that I don't feel tired just from walking or standing. And when they say light, they mean it. I forget I'm wearing them most of the time. ~ I was a little worried about the elastic straps, but they hold firm without too much pressure on the top of my foot (more on that later). ~ When I first opened up the shoebox, I noticed how thick the sole was; it's almost as thick as my running shoes. All said and done, they don't look out of place when I'm wearing them and the added cushion is appreciated. ~ On the first couple of wears I noticed pressure on my heels that worried me, but that has given way to a very comfortable experience. ~ The Dark Denim works well with jeans or khakis. They are subtle suites me and my need perfectly. What I'm glad I know: ~ I have to be careful what socks I wear with these. Most of the time it's fine, but a few times the combination of thicker socks and the elastic laces have put uncomfortable pressure on the top of my foot. ~ The shoes fit really well, but my feet do sometimes slip inside. In other words, probably not the best bet for the pickleball court. ~ They definitely have been getting more comfortable the more I've worn them. All that said: ~ I'm glad I bought these and even found myself trying to figure out how to wear them more. And for those in-between times (read: most of my life not at work), these are a great option. ~ I have a pair of Ariat boots that I love and routinely wear 16+ hours out of a day. I am really pleased that these live up to that standard and are fighting for some of those hours.
