Customer Reviews Ariat Kelmarsh Shortie Rubber Boots

I decided to get a pair of rubber boots for my manure picking efforts in my horses pasture as my paddock boots were really getting so muddy and dirty on a daily basis. I ordered both the Ariat Kelmarsh shorties in navy and Muck Boot Mucksters and the difference in the comfortespecially the support in the footbed of the Ariats made the decision to keep them and return the Mucksters an easy decision! The Kelmarsh shorties are also a nice looking boot with a good tread and are easy to rinse off! I chose the same size as I wear in my Ariat paddock boots which is half a size smaller than my regular shoes and it worked out great! I usually wear a 9.5 in most shoes and the Ariat size 9 works great for me! I highly recommend the Ariat Kelmarsh shortie to anyone needing a comfortable and functional boot for all the time we spend off of our horses!

Love these waterproof boots! I wear them while taking care of my small farm and animals.

The boot is alright---I can wear it without socks and not get blisters. But the stitching on the neoprene started coming undone in a month! Not the quality I expect from Ariat.

I am super excited about these boots! They ticked the boxes of what I was needing: Neoprene opening is just right (not too wide, not too loose), sizing might be a hair large (I usually wear 8.5 in Ariat but I needed an 8 in these), waterproof, easy to slip on & off without my hands, and comfortable. They are a bit heavier than I was hoping for, but not more than any other rain boot. If I had to be nit-picky, I would position the red loop a bit further down / differently because sometimes this bunches behind my ankle when I slip them on (but after I fix them it doesn't reoccur with use). If the weather is warm, your feet might get a bit warm inside after an hour or two, but it's not a problem for me because I don't stand in my rain boots all day long.

Bought for rainy days, they are great for cooler weather bit warm for summer.

Purchased these as they are less clunky and heavy in the mud than "Muck" brand boots. They're great, although they run a bit big, I ordered my usual size 9 and I needed to put a second insole in them to make them fit better.

Cute waterproof boots to wear to the barn or walking the dog. Short so you can use them in warmer weather. Comfortable but run a little big. I wanted something other than tall Wellies.

Stick to Muck Boots. Better quality! Asked for assistance from Ariat, nothing but emails to do nothing.

Love my new boots. They are very comfortable. Glad they come in half sizes. Lots of reviews of how large they come. I did size down half size and they fit great. I normally wear a 9. The 9 was just little loose with my short socks. If you were wearing thick socks (which I never do), I would not have sized down. They keep my feet warm too. My feet are also nice and dry. Got mostly for quick trips outside or walking dog in the rain. These are perfect. My husband even loves them and wishes they made them in mens. The only negative is it would be nice if they had little more arch support. Cushion is good, but could use just little more arch to them.

These boots seem great but run a little big on me. Still deciding if I will keep.

Lovely boots, but way too big, so had to return them. Tried them in a shop and I would need size 5 when I'm usually 6.5! However, I have quite narrow feet and found even in the smaller size they slipped up and down at the heel, but this is a problem I have with a lot of wellie style footwear.

Very solid/sturdy muck boot. A bit on the heavy side. I'm typically a 9, but sized down to the 8.5, which is still a little loose. Will be better with thick socks but I don't live in an environment that encourages thick socks. Will keep it as the sturdiness outweighs the sizing issues.

These boots are rediculously comfortable. I bought them as everyday slip on boots and just ordered a 2nd pair to have one for the barn bc I love them so much. I wear them all day long. They do seem to run a little big so if youre between sizes Id suggest size down.

This rain boot is the most comfortable rain boot that I've worn, and I've worn many! It wears like a house slipper/shoe and is very supportive at the same time. I purchased this rain boot from Ariat because I own other boots and mules by Ariat, and I know that the level of spot on fit and comfort would be offered in this style, as well. The boot is easy to slip on and off, and because of the elastic side inserts, it's extremely easy to slip on and off over my high instep. I will wear this rain boot rain OR shine!

These boots are really comfortable and cushy. Kept my feet dry. They seem to run slightly large, but overall I highly recommend them.

Best slip on ever , I use them all the time so comfortable for all day wear .

I wore these boots all day at work for multiple days in a row the insoles are very comfortable.

Sole came apart from boot after second day wearing them.

I had a pair of these last Christmas as a present and I've absolutely loved wearing them for gardening throughout the year. However, I've been out in them today and realised my foot was getting wet walking through long grass. After inspection I can see one of them has split across the top. Very disappointed as they're not cheap and expected them to last longer than 11 months!

Sole separated on gray bees after a not more than 10 wears over a few months. Returned and got refund. My navy ones have been worn longer and through more muck and are still going. I just wanted another option because they're so easy to slip on and wear all day.

These boots are comfortable, warm, and waterproof obviously. What I don't like about them is the lining. Hay and shavings stick to it SO BAD. Anything that gets in them is stuck forever - it won't come off! Every time I wear them, something is poking or itching me. I cannot recommend them as a result. Maybe if you are just wearing them for gardening or rain, but they are not a great barn boot

Only a low rating because the soles separated from the boot part. I originally had the camo style ones and wore them to their death. Loved them so much I bought a second pair, in the bee print. These ones weren't as good as the first pair. Maybe just a bad production run.
