I currently have four pair of Ariat boots!
This pair are my favorite. I love the leather it looks great, I love that they are waterproof.

Bedroom slippers for the barn
I have always ridden in Ariat boots - paddock and tall - but had never tried the Breeze model. So happy I did. They are even more comfortable than the basic Ariat paddocks I've bought in the past. Perfect fit from the first time you put them on. This is a great product.

Sole Coming off of toe 5 weeks in.
I would normally recommend Ariat and have bought numerous products, including boots from this brand, but this is not okay. My daughter rides twice a week and has had these boots since October. As you can see the sole is already coming off of the toe. Not a happy camper at all as I expected more from Ariat. This should be fixed.

So comfortable
My mom bought these for me as a birthday gift about a year ago and they have held up amazingly. The soft leather is just as supple as the day i took them off the shelf and they clean up so nicely. The boots have lasted me through many rides and haven’t broken or frayed and i expect they will last me any years to come. The elastic on the top hasn’t even lost its stretch. It hasn’t pulled out and become loose like my other boots had. It’s still just as fitting as the first time i wore them. I highly recommend these boots. You can’t beat this price.

Been through everything and still look new
I've had these boots for roughly two years, and they've seen it all- everything from schooling shows to a three-week back country horsepacking expedition in the Tetons last month. With rides during the expedition lasting anywhere from three to ten hours, I needed something that would keep me comfortable. I expected to basically have to throw these boots out by the end of the expedition, but they're just as good as when I left, to my surprise. Mind you, this was no light usage. They were worn around campsites regularly in addition to being ridden in. They're also waterproof (in my experience- I do not promise that)! Having crossed about two-to-six-inch creeks in these and not felt any moisture, I'm very satisfied. There have been occasions where mud has engulfed the shoe, in which case, they've become (inevitably) moist (but dry rapidly). All of this is to say that if you're on the fence about these boots, GET THEM! They're so worthwhile and have outlasted any other pairs I've had (mainly Saxons, which break quickly).

The best ever boots
I've owned several pairs of paddock boots over time, but none hold up like Ariat. The Heritage Breeze boots are the newest addition to my Ariat family (tall boots, work boots, breeches, half-chaps, etc). I love them because not only do they hold up in every day wear, but they always look great when cleaned up after a long day. Most of my previous non-Ariat paddock boots fall apart within a few months of purchase, but in these I can ride several horses a day, wash them all, muck stalls, and go to the feed store without a moment of issue or discomfort. They are the nicest boot I've ever worn and now after 5+ years of constant use, they still clean up like new! I will never buy any paddock, work, or tall boot that's not by Ariat.

These are great boots for the English Riders; however be ready to buy a new pair about every 6 months. Then they start to rip and fall apart.

Wanted to like these!
I have always loved Ariat paddock boots and really wanted to like these, but sadly, they just didn’t compare to my old ones. The fit in the ankle seemed too large, yet the foot fit was good. Also didn’t love the feel of the leather.

So far, great!
10 rides in, comfy, stylish, hoping they hold up, no indications they won't so far. Note that the ankles are fairly snug.. I have what I'd consider average ankles and they zip tight with thin socks. May need a different option for winter riding. Pair great with the breeze half chaps, really nice clean look.

The best and only paddock boots you'll ever need.
I'm on my third pair of Ariat paddock boots. They last forever. They're comfortable and durable....exactly what you need in a paddock boot. I trash mine tromping through all manner of mud and muck, and they're still just fine. Truly, I wouldn't even consider any other brand.

No break in time!
I wear a size 5.5 and prefer a wider toe box. Ariat doesn’t make wide in size 5.5 and so all the other boots I tried were too narrow and I had to return them. These boots are a little wider and they worked fine. There is no break in time with them. They are very soft. I do wish they had more arch support though. And I feel a bit of cushion would be very welcomed in all of the Ariat boots. I typically end up wearing paddock boots all day around rough and even rocky terrain. More comfort would be nice. But overall these boots worked for me and if they are like Ariat boots I’ve had in the past, I know they will last.

Very nice paddock and riding boots!
Instead of spending more money on another pair of around the barn and everyday riding boots, I opted for paddock books and half chaps. I love that these are washable. They do run large although I added my own more cushy inserts so I stayed with my usual size. I'm not sure they run a full half size larger but they are quite roomy which is better than too tight. I've only had them a short while so I can't say how they old up over time but there's no break in period. 4 starts because the inserts are average at best.

Ariat rocks
Yes, you have to pay more and no they don't tend to last as long as one might wish but, they are super. They rubbed me a tiny bit when I wore them around the house but within an hour or so they felt great. I am leery of the zipper wearing out but I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.

Best boot ever
As a decade long Grand Prix boot wearer, I was hesitant to try an Ariat boot. I found that the Ariat line was an okay substitute and wore several styles over the past few years. But this boot has exceeded any and expectations and is my favorite boot ever.

Long lasting, super comfortable.
I first bought these paddock boots to ride in (with calf chaps) when I first started riding. They lasted me 2 years of riding 3-6 times per week while also tacking, grooming, bathing, and doing other barn chores while wearing them until they showed signs of breaking down. They probably would have lasted longer had I taken the time and had the knowledge to properly clean, condition and oil them. I bought a second pair that lasted me another 2 years. During this time I was a working student. Considering I was mucking stalls, turning out horses, lunging horses, tacking, grooming, etc for 6 days a week, 10 hours a day, these boots did me well. I recall taking anywhere between 13,000 and 25,000 steps per day during this time and my feet never hurt while wearing these boots. They were such a relief! I will never purchase another brand or TYPE of paddock boots. I am planning on buying these again as I will only be wearing them twice a week max (without riding in them), so hopefully they last longer in that situation along with proper leather care.

Very nice paddock boot
I have not worn them yet. They are attractive and comfortable.
I would say they run slightly large.

Great boot
This is the second pair that I have purchased. Use 2 to 3 times per week. Very comfortable right from the start. Run true to size. They were not exactly washable - at least in my hands. They looked better before I washed them....but obviously I bought them again!

Not great boot
I reviewed these boots prematurely when I first got them, before I rode in them for a few months. I have developed right heel pain that goes away if I don't ride for a few days or wear a different pair of boots. Also, they are only a few moths old (I ride in them 3x a week) and they look like they are years old. I think they have stretched out somehow too. They are washable so I do get them wet sometimes, but have never washed them. I had a pair of ovations that lasted me 5 years before they looked like this. I wonder if it is the type of leather/material?

Awesome boots!
I'm a trainer and ride 4-5 horses a day and usually end up teaching all day too in my paddock boots. Love them!! Put them on anticipating having to break them in and they were great right away! Keep my feet feeling good all day.

My feet are a bit wide, but these boots don't rub or pinch like some paddock boots. They're also soft and feel broken-in. Very comfy. I ordered my street show size. I'd say that these run a tiny bit large, but I think a half size smaller would have been too small.

Sweet boots!
I bought these boots a couple of weeks ago since my Auken's were giving me blisters. I am so glad with my purchase! They're easy to break in and the leather is flexible and soft. I can walk all day in these and my feet don't get sore. I definitely recommend these comfortable and affordable boots!
