ARIATWorkhog Wide Mens Boot

I am SO happy with my new ARIAT groundbreaker cowboy boot styled work boot / shoes!i pulled em on, and in about 15 seconds i became a diehard fan of this company. so, i am not actually using these boots for ANY type of work. these are going to be dress up shoes for me. i never wear actual shoes. but i love WORK style boots. there are lots of companys that produce great boots and shoes, you should know that this company is amongst the best for a reason. it's definitely not hype. i was a little surprised at the overal height. for some reason i figured they would be higher. however, i am not an expert on western style boots so.... actually...this is my 1st pair of western styled boots in over 20 years. i am lovin' the idea of no laces to tie up! you should know these boots are NOT steel toe or composite toe. just very comfortable. i usally wear sized 8 shoes / sneakers... i have wider type feet so i lucked out when i saw size 7.5 wides available. fit so well. geeze...i could talk about how great these boots are all day long! ill spare you that however... ARIAT makes super high quality boots and thats really not a secret. i would advise you to look at photos before purchasing, outstanding! im already looking forward to my next pair! these boots are a little bit country...a little bit rock & roll! THANK YOU ARIAT! Ryan from NY

Love these boots. They are really robust, and so far, their water resistance has been great. I use them on long-distance trips on my motorcycle, and they hold up really well. They are not lined, but I had no issue in moderately cold temperatures. They are wide enough at the top to accommodate big calves, but a bit tight at ankle level when your ankles are swollen. The soles are thick, and they don't slip on road oil. the construction feels sturdy. They also look good with a pair of jeans. Overall, excellent value for the money, I hope they'll last for years.

After reading almost half the reviews on these boots, I was starting to regret ordering these online. Between them being to big, or too small, break in period, scuff marks, wrong color delivered, and so on.. I was just banking on them not fitting and returning and going in person and getting fitted for boots. This is my first pair I have ever worn. Straight out of the box they look perfect, no scuffs and the leather is nice and and already soft. These fit true to size. I wear a 11.5" to a 12" in most every shoe I own. I ordered the 11.5" and they fit perfect. I do not see a long break in period with these, if I wore them daily maybe a week. No scuffs out of box, correct color (brown) comfortable to wear out of box and fit perfect. Buy them if your size is still available, you will not regret this purchase.

These Ariat Groundbreakers are very comfortable, however I did have to go through 3 sizes before finding my fit in this boot. For reference, I normally wear a 10.5 in New Balance, 10-10.5 in Asics, 9-9.5 in dress shoes (Cole Haans), 42-43 European size in Lem's barefoot shoes. I used to wear a 9.5 in Timberland work boots, they were steel-toe waterproof Titans. I've been looking to try out some Ariats, and although these are towards the economy line as Ariats go, they have not disappointed.Pros:*nice color and quality of leather and welt*comfortable insole although if you have high arches like I do you may want a more supportive replacement but this would be true in any western-style work boot*non-slip electrical hazard rated outer sole, also non-markingCons:*not waterproof (I knew this when ordering and they breathe better, but if you're looking for waterproof this is not the model for you)*not steel-toed (again, I knew this and was looking for soft-toe boots, but if you are working in an industrial area make sure you look for the steel-toed groundbreakers)As for the fit, I returned 10.5 and 10 sizes for being too big before settling on 9.5. This size allowed some slipage in the heel as is necessary in a good fitting pull-on work boot. The top of the foot was a little looser than I would want at first, but as the leather has been breaking in over the last few weeks they have settled down on and around my foot and calf, and as the sole has become more flexible the heel has also settled in as well. Overall they are breaking in nicely.I wear two types of socks for work, summer I wear thinner boot socks, and with these socks the boots are slightly looser. With Merino wool gold-toe boot socks for winter they are slightly snug. I have experienced a slight toe pinch when crouching which usually means the last is too big, so I might have been able to get away with a size 9, but I wanted to leave plenty of room for the wool socks when winter comes. If your preference is tighter boots that break and stretch to your feet you may start at a size down from street shoe size then go down another half size to get that real snug feel. For most people though, I expect 1 full size down will be a good starting point for sizing these boots.As far as the styling, they are understated and simple which I like, and the calf is roomy for me and I have regular calf muscles, but if you are thinner than me you might find that part a little bit. I think anyone who has thick legs would fit and not find them too narrow.Overall I am very pleased with this purchase and recommend these boots to anyone looking for a good-quality understated pull-on work boot.

Bought for my son. He says very nice and comfortable.

The boots are beautifully made. Having a high instep , I've always found this style of boot, difficult to impossible to get on. I can pleasantly say, these boots slipped right on and immediately felt comfortable.I wore them for four hours while running errands and they are just what I was hoping for. These are not the steel or composite toe models so they are fairly light, weight wise.I wear a EE shoe and find the width of these boots just about perfect with light boot socks but believe there is plenty of room for heavier socks. These are not insulated boots.The sole has a good tread pattern and is comfortable to walk on on hard surfaces. I can't comment on durability of the sole yet.Time will tell, but so far, I really like them and would recommend them to friends.

These are the 3rd pair my man has gone through. They lasts more than a year of everyday wear and tear of rough construction and farm work. No other boot has been close to lasting that long. These have been consistently long lasting.The picture is the new ones next to the old ones that lasted 14 months. The only reason we had to replace them is because the sole started feeling off of one of them and could not be repaired.

El color muy obscuro nada que ver con la imagen 😡

Cómodas pero la bota izquierda viene mucho mas amplia y tuve que ponerle plantillas para que se ajustaran y no

Buen producto

Estas botas estan todas raspadas, y la verdad no se ven nuevas, yo compro artículos impecables y nuevos, no usados. La suela no es la misma de la que se ofrece en el producto descrito.

Duran un poco mas de un año.Poniéndoselas una semana si y una no.Para trabajo de campo, rancho.No resisten mucho el agua.Si me compro otras.
