Nice shoes but hit right at the top of the ankles and they rub so it is uncomfortable. I'm sure they will break in, in time.

They fit my foot good but the top part is to wide. I never wore boots before but I would like the leg part a little snug

Comfort is the number one reason I bought these boots, but be assured they look just as good! The size 8 ran true to size and took very little breaking in to become my new favorites.

My second pair of these boots. Great boot for casual wear, hitting the streets or hiking. Only issue, these boots are not ideal for all terrains. Not ideal for wet, or slick surfaces.

Very comfortable for those on their feet all day. The lacing system needs improvement; the lacing tends to loosen up and it is hard to keep the top from getting too loose.

They're a little tight across the top of my right foot. Hopefully it'll get better as they get broken in.

The fit is snug. I'd get a half size up at least. Maybe even a whole size if you intend to wear thick socks.

I've had 3 pairs of these boots. The style, comfort and being fairly waterproof have made these my favorite by far. My only complaint would be the stitching separates especially around the black trim guards on the front sides. Even my local tack shop was surprised to see this. I'll still buy another pair, I like riding in them. Their soles far outlast the timberland boot.

Boot was way to big, despite me typically being a size 10, I needed a size 8.5. otherwise seems good quality for the price

These shoes run very large. Had to return original order for smaller size. Color is much darker than shown in most pictures and from what I've seen in person.

I ordered the distressed brown which shows the lighter color boot, which is what I wanted. When I received the boot it was indeed the darker brown boot. Please correct the pictures of your boots. They are not right. I will reorder, but now I've lost my 10% first order discount. Booo....

Comfortable, durable, quality boot. I wear these daily for work where I can be walking up to 12 miles per day. They have held up remarkably.

I needed a boot for this fall and really liked the look of this one and the glowing reviews it got, especially the short break in time. Unfortunately I am experiencing some heal rubbing and dont know what to do to help it. Any ideas?

I am on my third round of these. I ride in them multiple times a week stomp in the mud and walk around town. My only reason for not giving a 5 star- the cushioning would be improved, when I try other Ariat boots the cushion is much softer and more supportive.

Love the look and feel of these boots. The rep told me to order them in my tennis shoe size (9.5D), but if I could go back, I'd order them 1/2 size down as them seem to run a little large (loose in the heel and a bit long). Other than that they're extremely comfortable and look great.

Incredibly comfortable boots. I'm on my third pair. I've worn them everywhere. I am hard on the soles of footwear and the heels hold up great.

There was a manufacturing defect in the seam of the boot so I called customer service and I sent them back and I'm currently awaiting the refund

I love the look of the boot and they are comfortable, however I noticed the brown around the bottom of the boot is subject to scraping off the brown leather. I have scrape marks on both (I believe it is when I get in or out of my car) but I don't know how to fix it. Scratch marks going everywhere, looks like they need painted. It has been too long to return them but I haven't worn them that often. I have never had a pair of boots do this before. If there is a way to fix them I wish I could find out how, google searches not showing much. That is why I gave them 4 stars vs. 5.

These are great endurance riding and every day wear shoes. I have horrid feet and been wearing 8.5 M terrain in other colors since '92 but have worn the black for a very long time now. I worn hard orthotics since '82 and nsg school. I have to take out the insert. These are the only shoes I have NEVER walked over the soles. (Clarks were only a month before I walked them over, but those were for office work. ). I love these shoes and I have been bugging Ariat CS ever since they came out with their first wides asking for black. . Wide black have been in the "process" for decades now. The only dressy color and they can't make it wide. I have no idea what their problem is! Lots of reviewers complain at the lack of wide. I do not like distressed leather but they all seem to be that. Every little mark shows. I've had them before.
So now I am going to the H2O terrain in Copper in a 9 wide. It seems the darkest. My toes need more room. I pray this solves the squished toe problem. These last about 2 years before the sole tread srarts to go in the ball of the foot and heel. They really can last 3 before there are smooth spots on the soles. Heel starts first. I have not tried other brands because they do not promote a steel shank nor stability.
