Staple
I just now replaced a set of Ariat boot trees I bought 7-8 years ago. Love these - last a long time, lightweight, and make boots easy to carry. Staple for me

Look nice but a bit flimsy
These look great coming out of the box but they're a little flimsy and don't compress very well. They work fine but I wish they were a bit easier to get in and out of my boots.

Best boot trees I've used
I have many pairs of boot trees and these are my favorite. I have wide calf boots and these expand to fill the space nicely and are very sturdy. Very happy with the purchase.

Great for the price!
Fit my boot like a dream! My tall boots are a size 9 with a medium tree. It could adjust to any size of tree. My boot tree use to sag and lean over in my boot bag until now! So happy with this purchase.

Helped stretch my boots
These trees are awesome! Was a bit skeptical about them being plastic but they are great! Match my boots, stretched them a little like I needed, keeps them upright, lightweight, and didn’t break the bank. Overall a good find

Work well for me!
I bought these 2-3 months ago to keep in my field boots and they are exactly what I was looking for. Easy to use and despite being plastic (I was skeptical at first) they are absolutely study enough to hold up through frequent use. They offer just enough consistent (fool-proof) tension and sturdiness in the boot to keep the ankle from bunching as well.

Love these Boot Trees
I purchased these Ariat Boot Trees about a month ago and love the way they keep my tall boots—the boots are now holding their shape just like they were when new. They are pricey—but worth the price. And, as always, SmartPak customer service equine specialists are the best-ever!

Tired of Slouching Boots?
I hated seeing my boots slouching or just folding over when they weren’t being worn. I tried pool noodles to keep them upright, but they seemed to just slouch down around the pool noodle :( The Ariat boot trees put an end to all that :) The overall length and spring tension the boot trees provide prevents any tall boot from slouching or developing unsightly creases or folds when they aren’t being worn. These boot trees help to keep your tall boots in the best possible condition, extending their useful life so you get the most out of your investment.

Broken
I bought this for my new tall boots as I had great experiences with ariat's boot trees. However, the plasic 'handle' broke and does not reattach. Although it still works, this pair is much harder to use than my previous ones were, and does not work as well with only a small metal piece as a handle. I love Ariat products, but I am not a fan of this one.

So far, so good.
When I first received them I was a little anxious due to the plastic and all the moving parts. Fortunately, so far, so good. The plastic is actually fairly thick, and the mechanism is simple enough that I suspect it will hold up just fine. I'm using them in my show Ariats, which are unfortunately doubling as my all-around Ariats while my usual barn boots go in for new zippers and resoling. That means these boot trees are being removed and replaced 5-6 times a week and they're holding up just fine with zero trouble. The price tag is great, much better than the wooden trees, and they're nice and light, so dragging my boots in and out of my tack locker is easy.

So happy I bought these
These were simple to use- right out of their package. Just simply inserted into my boots! I like how my boots hold their shape with the inserts in.

They're Blue!
I have a pair of these trees in silver that came with a pair of Monacos that I bought and I recently bough a second set of trees to go with a new pair of tall boots. When the trees arrived, I was pleasantly surprised to see that they were a beautiful navy blue color, not gold as pictured. I find that these are a bit stiffer than the silver ones that came with by Monacos but they are still very easy to use. I also think that they helped stretch my boots a bit and shortened the break in time. I like that they are stiff because they prevent the boots from getting an uncomfortable crease over you heel/Achilles tendon. I insert these trees with the boot unzipped then zip the boot up with the tree already in place so ensure that none of the zipper covers inside the boots get squished. I much prefer these trees over the inflatable kind and would purchase this produce again.

Serves it's purpose but does not prevent shrinking
I can't say that I've found other boot trees that are better, however I have a few minor complaints (I still happily use these, just saying)
1- They break pretty easily. Never put them on the ground where someone might step on them on accident!!
2- They do not prevent your boots from shrinking. If you take off your boots while they are still sweaty on the inside, they will shrink regardless of the boot trees being in them. I suggest wearing your tall boots until the sweat has completely dried and then putting the boot trees inside of them. I did not do this and ended up having to replace my tall boots because I could not zipper them up my calves anymore.

Nice Boot Trees
I was surprised to find a brand name product for cheaper than the knockoffs. I was also expecting the gold boot trees but was pleasantly surprised when I opened the box to find navy boot trees with silver writing! They're very pretty and do a great job keeping my tall boots nice.

Works Great
Just as I expected! Ordered them and exactly what I was looking for. Added bonus that they are blue and not the weird gold color. Quality seems good. Thanks SmartPak for pulling through again.

Easy to use-great quality!
Love these, so easy to use every day and shockingly tough! My horse stepped on one in the concrete ailse with shoes on, and it bent under her foot. I thought for sure it would crack but it sprang right back to it's shape and looked perfectly intact. I was shocked. Love these!

EASY TO USE!!!
I'm a beginner in English jumping and I love these for my boots. For some reason I was expecting them to be wood but either way, they work great! Makes it easy to keep boots in great shape, great for storage, and for cleaning! These are a MUST HAVE for every pair!

Puzzle Free Boot Trees
I bought the Ariat boot trees for my new Petrie dressage boots and I love the EASY way one can fit them into the boots by simply squeezing the handle to close the tree before releasing it inside the boot! They give the calf of the boot great support and shape.
I came from the ancient time when one used wooden boot trees that one had to fit together like a jigsaw puzzle....NO MORE PUZZLES....just light pressure to keep my new boots in good form! Thank you.

Great design but seem a little flimsy
I've had them for about a month but have only used them a handful of times. I love that they allow for airflow in the boot and the "trigger" mechanism is brilliant - it allows you to easily get them into smaller boots. But the handles you squeeze seem flimsy. I have heard them crack when I'm squeezing - and I don't feel like I was squeezing very hard...but they didn't actually break & are still working fine. Will have to wait & see whether they hold up, and will handle more delicately, but honestly I'm a little skeptical.

Very Sturdy!
These boot trees do the trick so much so that my daughter swipes them when I'm in the arena.
I guess it's time to order another set.
The color is pretty gross. A hot pink, purple or black would be cool!

Does its job...
The quality isn't quite what I'd expect from Ariat, but it is very affordable! And it does exactly what it should--keep my Ariat boots in shape and standing so they'll last. I was a little skeptical about the way that it seems to constantly apply pressure to the sides of the boots but I've had it for about a month and it hasn't changed the shape so far!
