Ariat Men's Sierra Wide Square Steel Toe Work Boots, Dark Brown

We bought these boots for my son who started welding school. He’s always had some foot discomfort even when wearing very good running shoes. We asked him how he liked the boot and he commented without hesitation that they were the most comfortable shoes/boots he’s ever put on his feet!

This is the 3rd pair that I have ordered. I wear these boots 7 days a week, at work and on the farm. I was very impressed with the first two so I bought another pair, but this last one seems like quality has gone way down. The stitching keeps popping out and frays. The heel started to separate on this pair. Also, they are very noisy while walking.

I had my last pair for 3.5 years, comfy durable by far my favourite boots, will only buy Ariat

This is my third pair of Ariat Sierra square-toe work boots and my fourth pair of Sierras overall. I’ve also owned a pair of the round toes. That ought to tell you something right there. I’m pretty hard on a pair of work boots, and I’ve worn plenty of different brands over the years. These Sierras are hands down the best I’ve owned. They’re comfortable right out of the gate, they hold up to just about anything I throw at them, and I honestly can’t seem to wear a pair out. Usually what happens is the uppers finally get so dirty, scuffed up and beat looking that I decide it’s time for another pai, not because the boots are worn out, but because I want a cleaner pair. The old ones still have plenty of life left in them and are so comfortable I hate to quit wearing them. I have even donated them to charitable organizations so someone else can get several more years out of them. That’s what keeps me coming back. I don’t baby my work boots. I wear them like work boots are supposed to be worn, and the Sierra just takes the abuse and keeps going. I own several other pairs of Ariats for dress and casual wear too, and I’ve had the same experience with them. Ariat just makes a heck of a boot. If you want a work boot that’s comfortable, tough as nails and built to last, I don’t think you can go wrong with the Sierra. I’ve tried plenty of others, but I keep coming back to these—and I don’t see that changing anytime soon.
