[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased a pair of these boots for my brother. He works in heavy construction. He's an Italian-American, but has this cowboy thing going on, so I asked him what he wanted for Christmas and here we are. The boots are of great quality. They look great on and they fit him perfectly (10.5). This guy is close to impossible to shop for so needless to say when I saw his smile I was HAPPY! We have been experiencing record low temperatures and ice and snow in New York City and he works outside. I think about him out there and I am always praying that he is warm and protected. He said the boots are awesome, warm, and do the job he needs them to do. I did ask him why he didn't want them with the steel toe. He just rolled his eyes at me. The man makes me nuts. He's a good husband and a loving dad to his son's I always want the best for my brother and as far as boots go, these boots fit the bill. Get yourself or someone you love a pair.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband wears these boots as his daily work boot and says they are comfortable. Within wearing them two days, they were comfortably broke in. His only complaint has been that he finds the "outward stitching" on the shaft is awkward. I didn't even notice that quirk in the product pictures, but it does show that the stitching sticks outward instead of an internal, imbedded stitch like most boots of any kind. It doesn't affect the wearability of these boots.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I buy these boots every year for my son at Christmas. He wears them every single day for work and he wears them as his daily regular footwear. They are very durable and the most comfortable boot he has ever worn. He won’t wear anything else. It’s the best Christmas gift that I could get him every year!

Received a pair of these for Christmas and from the first time I put them on my feet were thanking me. I have Planters Faciitis and after one day of wearing I could tell these boots were helping. The shock shield heel and the comfort insoles mean I can go all day without having any pain. I can tell that these are going to last a long time the soles are very durable and has a great tread pattern for grip. So go on and order a pair of these great Ariat boots your feet will thank you. Thank you Ariat for making excellent boots.
