ARIATMen's Hybrid Rancher Western Boot

The media could not be loaded. We were looking for the righr boots for my husband for awhile and decided to try these ones! They were perfect! They aren't too tight and they are wide enough that my husband doesn't complain about them not slipping on easily! They look great and seem very durable! Love love love that they are real leather!

These boots are real good looking and because they are work boots, they have excellent tread...I look forward to wearing them for outdoor work projects and stomping around in the bush. They are taking longer than expected to break in. I have really high arches and slightly wide feet, and usually wear a size 12 in most running/tennis shoes, mostly to compensate for wider feet since these types don't typically come in size EE. So based off of other reviews that said these boots are slightly larger, and to order a half size down from your regular shoe size, I ordered an 11.5EE. Wearing it as it came, there was just a little bit too much wiggle room which created rubbing irritation on the top of my foot and ankle area. I've tried inserting a couple different types of foot inserts, including SOLE and another. While those did help with the lack of arch support, they took up too much space in the boot which makes it uncomfortable for long periods of time. Currently using a gel-arch support pad that i've slipped under the factory foot insole. This is working the best so far, just troublesome making sure the pads stay in the right place throughout the day. I may glue them in once I feel comfortable enough with them. ***Size UP*** I bought another boot and this time went with size 12EE. Coupled with the SOLE insole insert, that boot feels really comfortable and I have no problem wearing them all day. Hope this helps.

*UPDATE* 3 DAYSThes boots are amazing and had to give another star. After the second day they were completely broken in and fit like a glove. At first i was apprehensive about the square toe and havinga loose fit. After they broke in and formed to my foot they are just the right tight and have just enough slip to fit perfect. The soles are always awesome with Ariat Duratread (The makers of Nascar race tires) which makes them durable. My soles always wear down and I have a problem with the steps on my tractor tearing up then soles of my boots. The steps have rough raised steel that is pretty jagged so you won’t slip, this always leaves chunks cut out of the heels and my soles are tore up at 6months and destroyed at 9 but I push it to 12. Don’t have to do that with Ariats. The color is great and the leather is excellent quality as well as the stitching. The wide carbon fiber shaft is great on the arch as well as the heat activated self forming insoles that make this boot an all around winner. Makes anything else feel inferior, you don’t know what your missing until you try its. The use of modern technology and materials (carbon fiber and duratread) mixed with the traditional western practical boot design style.I’ve always worn a 10.5 in boots but I’ve never owned a square toe so that might be why I feel like they are a little spacious in the toes. I love Ariat boots and use to work in a store selling boots and ariat were always my go to boot for customers who wanted something that was built to last and looked and felt good. I can tell I’m going to like these boots I’m just going to have to get used to them. I also still can’t believe I only paid $74.99 for them. That prices alone makes me happy.

These are great boots! Very comfortable and very stylish. I'm a 9EE and these fit true to size. Very stable when walking round. Only thing I did. Ot like was the insoles, but that was easily fixed with a pair I had from other boots. All in all this is a very well made boot that can be used for either work or outings.

I really like these boots. I'm a tall girl with large feet, I usually wear a men's 11, but since these looked a bit bulkier than my other Ariat boots I went for the 10.5. Liked the color and got a couple compliments on them when I wore them too school, which is a plus considering they were men's boots and I'm a girl. They fit great and I can wear them all day without any pain. I walk around 6 miles a day doing my daily activities, so it's essential to have comfortable boots. They're very stable, which was why I purchased these, I needed something I could wear at the farm and on concrete during the winter. It's currently still summer, and they didn't make my feet too hot, which is great. I have yet to test these on ice, but they do great on concrete covered in cow manure. My only complaint was a blister on the back of my right ankle, but that's to be expected when breaking in new boots. Overall a great pair of work boots.

2nd pair of these. They are great boots.

I already have a pair of relatively new Ariat Quickdraw boots (model 10006714), and they fit perfect, so I felt confident ordering this pair in the exact same size, and while the length is exactly the same, they're actually slightly narrower than the Quickdraws, so breaking them in is taking a little longer and brings some pain I didn't experience with my other pair, but they are breaking in nicely and it seems they will fit even better than my Quickdraws in another couple weeks.I love the color and the texture of the distressed leather. They really are a good "hybrid" of work boot and western boot, and I have no reservation about getting them knicked or scuffed-- It only seems to make this kind of leather look better (even if the distressed leather allows you to just rub out most minor scuffs, anyway). I'm looking forward to having these for a long time and highly recommend them to anyone in the market.

Comfortable, looks great, fits great. Suggest you order 1/2 size less than for runners.

Excelentes botas medida adecuada, suela muy cómoda

Muy buenas botas, excelente calidad

Las botas se ven bien con los pantalones vaqueros flojos de abajo y sobretodo su color de las botas es igual al que se muestra en la imágen del vendedor. Son muy cómodas y están bien hechas sin ningún detalle, y sobretodo que pueden usar para trabajo, para salir a pasear o para ir a alguna fiesta o un baile, ya que no te cansarán mucho porque son cómodas. Solamente al principio las botas son muy duras, pero es debido a que son nuevas y se tienen que amoldar a tú pie, pero ese detalle con el tiempo se corregirá. Sin duda un producto de una marca con prestigio cómo lo es ARIAT que nunca decepciona y muy recomendable.

Son algo duras, pero al pasar lo dias con el uso quedan como un guante, excelente suela para actividades de rancho y campo, cómodas, muy buenas plantillas, el color es más obscuro al anunciado pero aún así me han gustado, recomendables 100%
