I’ve been wearing ariat boots for the last 4years. The first pair I had lasted 2years, which was perfect. The next pair lasted 6months and the sole separated. This pair I’ve been wearing them for 8months and the sole is separating again. I’ve had to go back to my pair from 4 years ago until I can order a different brand. 2out of 3 pair didn’t make it a year. Boots are comfortable but far as durability, I don’t recommend for anyone who works outside with occasional water.

Just got these I work at a fabrication manufacturing plants we got a lot of compliments for breaking in pretty good I'm only one week in with them so time will tell the so far I really love them

I really wanted to love these boots, they're very light and comfortable and look good, but I'm afraid they just don't seem to hold up well. Within a week of use the bottom rubber section of the sole has begun to separate from the foam midsole. It also seems like the bottom rubber section is extremely thin, even when new and doesn't seem to be the same as what's pictured on the product listing. I have seen this issue with other reviews as well, and due to the cemented construction and lack of welting, I'm unsure if these will last a year. If the design and construction of the sole were to be changed to something similar to what Red Wing uses for their foam sole boots, then these would be a real winner! But with the cemented construction and apparent lack of durability, I feel like these boots are priced a little high.

Less than 10 months old and the sole is already coming apart.
