Ariat Hybrid Rancher Men's Leather Square Toe Western Boots - Durable Cowboy Boots for Riding, Work & Outdoor Activities

Al inicio son un poco ajustadas pero a la semana o dos quedan genial me encantanThese are very durable. I wear them everyday, and I'm entirely satisfied with them.I love these boots. They broke in after a day or two of use. They look good, feel good, and they are my go to for the construction site.Overall, I like them. The issue I’ve had for years is my large instep. The top of my foot makes it difficult to get certain boots on and off. IF I can get them on, I can wear the boots in but that’s if I can get them on. Generally the ankle support is too tight and it prevents me from getting my foot through. It’s not that the boot size is too small. My pictures show my old boots vs. the first new pair I ordered. They’re both the same brand, size and width, just 10 years difference. I sent them back and ordered the wide version. I still had to wear slick dress socks so my foot would slide through but they’re comfortable once I get them on.UPDATE: After 3 days of wear and some added mink oil and stretch spray, they are extremely comfortable.So far the boots are feeling and wearing well. Time will tell.Fits like they always do. Perfect.I have had a issue with boots fitting. I wear a 8.5 In most shoes. Justins always runs big on me so I have to get a size smaller.These boots not only fit perfectly. But they also are very comfortable.These work boots can transition over to style as well. Looks & feel great on my feet. Ariat is one of the known name in work boots & is second to none.I ordered these because I wanted a pair of lowish boots that were easy to get in and out of, that weren't afraid of the kind of heavy clay/mud we have around here and that I could tuck my pants into while walking the dog in said soil. The fact they're oiled leather was an important part of my decision, as was the profile of the supposedly indestructable soles.The good news is that they fit almost perfectly in 13D (US), despite the fact that I'm more of a 14A (US) person, and thus give good side support. There could be a little bit more space for my pinky toe despite the wide-square toe, and they taper down towards the nose a bit too much. We'll see what that does to the inner lining; it'll probably end up shredding as all cloth lining always does for me; the lack of space probably doesn't help with breathability either. A few days into wearing them (indoors too, for breaking in) I already had white stains on them from perspiration (and this isn't kind on the leather!). I never had this with my 2 pairs of all-leather Noconas, nor with my textile-lined Crispi Swat rangers.Another thing that must be due to the textile lining and the slightly tight fit: I keep having to pull up my socks (up and out from around my toes...). Never had that too in my Noconas.I do find they take a while to break in: the leather is thick and unco-operative at first so there's some discomfort from it not bending in the most ideal places, including the shaft and the reinforcements in the toe box and around the heel (presses into my foot just below the anklebone); I suspect those reinforcements are made of plastic and not leather.Overall those are all things I was more or less prepared for, so overall I'm quite happy. Cleaning the clay out of the soles is a b***h, but that too I was prepared for, as for the fact the soles tend to slip on our pebblestone roads when wet ;)What I'm much less happy about is the fact that the rims of my heels are already showing significant wear after less than a week (!!) of walking the dog. See the picture. We don't have sharp rocks here, only soft limestone and a some gravel. I haven't been walking on metal grating either. Maybe I got a pair of Durashred soles instead of Duratread...?+ good fit and support+ good quality leather, well oiled, (almost) identical for the boot and the shaft+ leather-lined shaft0 tapered nose styling means less place for the toes0 wide-square nose in size US 12 and up means the boot catches onto panelling when I work the clutch in my car- some QC issues, notably in the sewing of the outer sole which isn't routed perfectly through the groove it should follow and will thus wear through sooner rather than later-- soles not as durable as claimed: the heels are already shredding after less than a week of what should be the kind of use these are made for.I bought these boots for my boyfriend and he absolutely loves them. They took a while to come in because of back order issues however we got them and he hasn’t taken them off since. Every person who sees his boots I swear I got them and wants to get a pair. I will definitely buy these again or buy a pair for myself. They’re not too small in the leg and they’re also not to pointyWell made good fit only the toe is very square compared to the advertised photo. Ill keep them for a work boot but i like a pointed toe for dress occasions . From Calgary.Great boots....! I purposely purchased these boots for riding my Harley due to the boot being all leather and tough rubber soles for my safety.HD riding boots are way too expensive and only come in black...these boots people always comment on how nice they look when I’m out riding...!My teen son loves them. I recommend a wide width if you have an average size foot. My son normally does not wear wide width but he could not even get his foot into the regular width. Exchanging for a different size was easy.
