issues
This seems to be a recurrent problem that needs to be addressed by Ariat. The toe stitching also has become undone on my pair.

Stitching falls apart
The stitching in the toes of my boots fell apart in barely a year. Horrible workmanship.

Please fix the toe stitching!
These are the only boots I work in because they are the most comfortable. I wear everything Ariat! However, the stitching in the toebox has come apart on every pair I have purchased in the last three years. One pair I warranty exchanged and the exchanged pair did it within months. I am a working girl at the barn, I’m there daily but these boots should last longer than 4 to 6 months before ripping apart on that seam of the toe. today I wore a pair that I’ve had for 11 years, when you used to have the punch toe and that pair is rocksolid! Something changed in the way you make these or where you make them and it’s really disappointing.

Not Happy
I took a while deciding to spend this much money on a boot and I now regret it- Day one one of the boot rivets popped off when I tightened the laces- then another! I have had many boots with rivets and this has never happened. Stay away from these boots.

Hefty chonkers!
Good god these are heavy! I wasn't expecting that to be a huge issue when looking for water resistant, lace-up paddock boots but it's like going from ballet flats to Doc Martens compared to my... something mountain? - it's worn off - boots from high school 15 years ago. I wanted something that wouldn't leave my knees sore after traipsing around the fairgrounds on concrete, but the soles on these feel super thick - I'm worried about having a good feel of the stirrup. I haven't ridden in them yet because I want to be able to return them. If my old boots were like Chuck Taylors, these are like high-cushion running shoes and what I want is like volleyball shoes - decent support, but you can still feel what's under your feet. I tried these because they are hands down the most attractive lace-up, waterproof riding boots I could reasonably afford, Ariat seems to have a good reputation, and my slightly narrow feet measure 9.25 inches exactly, but these feel clunky and I don't think it's just that the leather isn't broken in yet. The leather is actually softer than I expected. I wish manufacturers/retailers would pick a size and list the weight (as is frequently done with footwear for other sports) so I could tell if this is just an issue with this brand or with waterproof boots or what. Anyway, I was hoping to buy one pair of boots for horse stuff that could basically do it all, but I'm not convinced this is it or that such boots exist within reach of mere mortals.

Gorgeous boot but....
Gorgeous boot but.. they ran HUGE. I have been wearing Ariat paddocks boot for the past, well we will just say decades. I have always worn an 8. The 8s I got fit like a 9.5. I returned them for a 7 and they are still too big. I already rode in them so I am just going to have to deal. I used to get the Heritage. Loved my cobalt so I figured I would try these. Other than the size, they are nice boots.

Not waterproof
My last pair of Ariat boots lasted me 10 years. In under 1 year you can't wear these if you're anywhere around water. Turns into swimming pools in your shoes. Quality seriously went down.

Great quality
I bought these for my wife, she said they are very comfortable with very little break in. The only dislike is the treads are not very slip resistant. But a great boot nonetheless
