ARIATMen's WorkHog Wide Square Toe Waterproof Work Boot
D**5
Excellent Cowboy Boots!
I've been looking for a square toe composite toe work boot that was water proof and insulated. This boot checked all the boxes! These boots are very warm and comfortable and I've worn them a lot since I bought them. They are indeed waterproof and the traction they provide is by far excellent in snow and ice. The first thing I did when I got them is I cleaned them with Red Wing leather soap and then let them dry. I then did 3x heavy coats of Huberd's Shoe Grease. Then let the boot sit for a couple days to absorb the grease before wearing them. I've been wearing them every other day (Pro Tip: Don't wear the same leather boots everyday!) and they still look like new, other than the usual workman's scuffs. This week I plan on cleaning them again and doing a nice coat or two of the Huberd's to prep them for more rain/snow/ice and sand/salt goodness. Key thing with any leather boot is to stay up on cleaning and oiling them. They will last for a long time. I also found that these boots are resoleable by NuShoe. ARIAT has a contract with them apparently. Very good boots, and I highly recommend them.

You can't ask for more, for the money...great boot!
First-off, I'd like to express how funny I think folks on here are, with putting what is clearly a ton of foot-miles/hours on a pair of work-boots, and then trying to scam a set of replacements. Idiots that do that are why the rest of us have to keep paying more and more, but, if you're that petty...I laugh at you, where we ALL should be upset.No-one abuses a set of boots more than myself...I build custom trailers, which means I kick steel, weld and expose my boots to ALL of the inherent abuse typical of a fabrication shop. I also forge custom knives on the weekends...these boots get molten-steel, slag, tend to farm animals, and oh-yeah...are worn regular for off-roading. All this, and the last pair lasted easily 2 years, AND I could have pushed them farther, but they were looking real ratty, so on cosmetics alone, I parked them.This new pair are exactly like the last, save for not being broken-in. I know from experience that once I get a few weeks on them, they will feel more like an extreme high-top, pull-on sneaker, than a work-boot. The only other pair of boots that have felt this great, out of the box, is my Rocky S2V Tac boots. Are they the very best you can buy?...all subjective. But like everything else in life, if it's man-made, there will be examples that are genuinely flawed, and for those folks whose number came up, I apologize for my above criticism.All that said, these boots are worth every penny. I'm not a boot expert but, I'm 60 years old and have worked hard my entire life, and believe me when I tell you, I've had some turd-boots on my feet in those years...some, even made by big/popular brands, that beat my feet up, and didn't last half as long. Add to that I'm diabetic, and my feet are super sensitive to hard-points, pressure and abrasion...these things pass with flying colors. Add to that, I have a size 14 foot, and it's very difficult to get a proper boot in those larger sizes, which leads me to this next comment...definitely consider a size smaller than you normally wear; folks mention that, and it's a fact...at least, with the square toe. I can't attest to the others. I went with the 13 wide and I can easily, comfortably, wear a pair of insulated socks in these.Buy them. I hope they don't change a thing with these boots, as I figure I have about another 15 years of hard labor left in me...that equates to about another 7.5 pair of these, at this rate. About once every 6 months I clean them real well, and re-treat the entire boot. And people, if you're in a high-abuse environment, such as most construction, fab-shops and the like, a couple years out of a pair of boots is MORE than you should expect, no matter how much you spend. I guess if you just wear these to church on Sunday, and they let go at a year, maybe you have something to complain about.

Please understand these are not steel toed boots
I bought these for work. In the banner at the top of the page it says “work hog, steel toed.”That is not the case. Maybe it says that somewhere else on the page but at the top it said they’re steel. I searched and found these under steel toed as well.Anyway, as it stands these boots were incredibly nice and comfortable. I bought the cream ones and dang did they look beautiful.I however had to return them. Depending on how quick the return is processed and how quick I can reorder some Ariats with steel toes, I’ll rate the 5 stars. The boots themselves were awesome. Just misleading when it says they’re something that they’re not. Especially for people who cannot afford nice boots often, and who need them for work. I now have to wait another week or more for new boots and will have to continue wearing my busted Tony Lamas with holes in them. Disappointed but the product itself was incredible

Great boots
Love these boots. Square toe Ariats are super comfortable and these look great also.The dark, textured leather looks really good and seems to be pretty resistant to scuffs and wear and tear. I prefer these over the other Ariat models that have the orange part of the sole showing through on the side, just personal preference though. I didn't really care for the contrasting trim around the top of the sole on this one either so I used a sharpie to black that out and I think it looks better (see photos). Sizing was spot on for me. They are a bit tough to slip on at first but that gets easier after wearing them for a little while. They do stretch out just a tiny bit as you get them good and broken in so I recommend a good snug fit right out of the box. Pictures are after a few months of wear and the boots still look and feel great. Overall a great boot, and the only negative for me is the price. Other than that I highly recommend.

Good quality but fits a bit small
Love the look of these boots. They are good work boots without the steel toe. Have a good work boot without a steel toe helps me around the farm dealing with my ducks and chickens. They fit ok and should be fine, but they do fit a bit tighter than they should. If I wear a thicker sock than normal (winter socks) there is no way these will fit with out being uncomfortable. So thinner socks are needed. I did try one full size up and they were too big, but I bet a half size up would be perfect. So they seem to fit a half size too small. But still a great boot and am looking forward to wearing them out.

Great boots
These are my daily workwear boots. I like them so much I even wear them on the weekends. Very comfortable. Can't beat workhogs.My last pair lasted me 5 years of daily use. Too bad the sole wore down.I got the resoled at the cobbler shop. The replacement sole was too firm on the cement floors at work. I'm still using that 5 year old pair for yard work. I think Workhogs are outstanding.

La comodidad es fundamental a deferencia de otros modelos este no la tiene tanto
No es tan cómodo este modelo como otros modelos de la misma marca y que también son botas de trabajo
