Well built comfortable work books. I don't think you could do any betterCame narrow at the toe.I got this to wear to the Horse Farm and it took some getting use to the composite toe but I really like this boot, well made, stands up to my horse training and so far still in good condition. Just wish they had it in Blue design.I do like the work boots but they are narrow at the toe box. I ordered my regular size and got a wide because of the composite toe. The shoe size worked out but they are not wide at all. I don't even have wide feet so I can't imagine the regular width. I do have shoe stretchers so I think I can make it work. They are cute and made well. They are lite weight and that surprised me. I got them pretty quick too. I gave 4 stars because of the width otherwise it would have been 5 stars.I really like this particular style of Ariat boots. I've worn Ariat my entire life, and in regards to other styles of Ariat work boots, these are my favorite. They hold their shape well, seem to resist oil absorption, and don't turn into a fake looking pleather like the last style I had. I wear them everyday to work, and spend all but lunch and break on my feet (in an industrial setting). Very comfortable. No break in time needed, but I've never had that problem with Ariats anyway.Purchased these for work. This is the sixth pair of Ariat boots I have owned, however first composite toe. My regular riding boots are the Probaby model in size 6.5, even though I typically wear 7 in athletic and dress shoes. After reading reviews I decided to purchased size 7 for these. Now that they are starting to get broke in they are sloppy. I deeply regret and wish I had purchased the 6.5. Overall, love the quality of the boot.Very pleased with my purchase. They fit great, they look great and exactly what I wanted. I typically wear size 6.5 so that’s what I ordered and they fit perfect. They are easy on and easy off. I haven’t worn them for more than 2 hours at a time yet but I got them for work around our property only so I’m not expecting to wear them for much more than 2-3 hours at a time anyway.I’ve worked in an oil refinery for 15 years and I’ve always worn steel toe boots. These are the lightest, most comfortable and cool (temperature) boots I’ve ever worn. Right out of the box they were comfortable. I highly recommend them.
