Customer Reviews Ariat Treadfast 8" Waterproof Steel Toe Work Boots

Bought these for my dad who works at a lumber company where he stands 12hrs a day. Says they are the best boots hes ever worn for work, lightweight, comfortable and durable. Great work boots.

They feel very heavy on your feet, they are very warm too for not being insulated, the top lace slips off the top of the tonge very easily as they are just about the same height. I like my boots tied tight and Im unable to do that with these due to the location of one of the cleats, it digs into the ball on the side of your foot.

Nice upper boot but I would like a thicker sole. I feel ground textures while walking unlike my many pairs of CAT footwear I own

I have been wearing these boots in 6 and love them, so when I saw them available in 8 - I bought a pair immediately. I was not disappointed. The first day I wore them, I had to walk through ankle deep mud, followed by a briar patch repeatedly to get from my truck to the fence line I was working on. At the end of the day, my feet were dry and my ankles werent cut to shreds. Awesome boots!

Recently purchased these and while they are a great pair of work boots with one exception; in the right boot there is a seem that can be felt through the insole of the boot that does cause some discomfort. Other than that issue, they are a great pair of boots! High recommend!!!

I love these boots they're holding up very well in construction and muddy environments being that it's the end of winter my feet stay warm and dry and don't hurt me after 10 14-hour day

They are comfortable I cannot speak to their wear as I've only have them for about a month and a half but they are NOT AT ALL waterproof. I had to do some light pressure washing at work and my feet were both soaked from the top of my foot down, ankle up was dry. I oiled them thinking that may help stepped in a puddle that was about half way up my actual foot (maybe 2"deep not over the top of the foot portion of the boot) didn't stand in the puddle but had to take maybe three steps through it and my feet were both soaked. Then it takes days for them to dry out. I've had non-waterproof boots be more water resistant than these. Will update on the wear of the boots once I've had them longer. As of now I'd recommend them but would caution on the lack of water resistance.

Great boot. Just not for job. If you work railroad or anything walking on rock all day this boot isn't for you. You can feel every rock through the boot with every step. Thought I would give them try but now they are just boots my son uses at his job. Had to get something with a harder sole

by far the heaviest boots i've ever wore. blows slip on boots out of the water. so far this is the only boot i've never worn out. because they suck so bad to wear.

Haven't had them long and are already falling apart.

I just bought my first pair of Ariat boots and I must say I'm pretty disappointed with the purchase. I paid extra for waterproof boots and they are simply anything but waterproof. I've had them only a few weeks and the first rain we had my feet got absolutely soaked. I can honestly say this will be the last pair of Ariat boots I buy. My last pair was Kodiak and I had them almost a year and my feet never got wet the first time. Do better Ariat.

This boot did not feel so good on my foot. I also have a concern with the black material above the ankle which wraps around the sides and back of the boot from the upper grommets. This material seems similar to a material on my current boots that is failing. That area needs to be made more of leather for durability reasons. I returned these for a refund.

These boots are super comfortable. I work in a poultry processing plant. I am on my feet 10 hours a day six days a week. It is very wet and nasty. This is my 3rd pair of these boots. I have had the same problem with all 3 pairs. After only 4 months, the soles of both boots start to separate from the top of the boots.

These boots i think are just for looks. sure ,they are comfortable but the quality is poor. they did not last as much i i would have expected,they started to rip at the fron where the composite toe meets the leather and water started to get into them.all this after about Four months of daily use.

Received the wrong boots. Received the non-steel toe version instead of the steel toe version. Threw my old boots away assuming these would be good. Once I realized what I received was non-steel toe, I contacted customer service. They said I have to return the boots before they'll fix the issue. Doing that would leave me bootless at work which wouldn't go so well. So I guess I'll shop elsewhere and maybe they can get my order right the first time.

I work in the carwash industry and im always on my feet or near water so i needed something waterproof and comfortable. These boots fit the bill. However it's only been a few months and i've already worn a hole through the bottom. if you walk on concrete all day or do any serious work i would not recommend these boots. If you do more light duty or walk on soft terrain then i'd recommend. Overall comfortable nice feeling boot. Just couldn't handle the work load.

Have definitely had better Ariat boots. The fit is good bur the material around the ankles rubs bad. For me these were a waste of money because they aren't comfortable enough to wear all day like I do my other boots.

I loved these boots at first. Comfy, stayed dry and stood up to my job. But after 4 months, the leather is cracking and water gets in. These boots did not hold up to my active job. Will probably not buy Ariat again unfortunately.

These boots are awful. I’ll never buy another pair of ariat boots. Made my feet hurt horribly ankles and knees even worse. These boots should be in the do not order list.

Been wearing them for about 2 months and the sole is already separating from the leather and the tread breaking off in chunks. I can tell these boots wont last me more then 6 to 9 months
