 I am in love with this boot! Firstly, it fits perfect. I am tall, and have had my feet measured, and I wear a 10 1/2.

Who makes a 10 1/2?  Its either 10 or 11. So when I saw these came in 10 1/2 I immediately ordered them. WOW! It is so nice to have a shoe that fits! Tall ladies, this is for you. :) thank you Ariat for making a 10 1\2! Its frustrating to either, have a shoe w too long a toe (and trip on it) or have to order a mens boot!

Comfortable the first time I wore them, the tread is just enough to prevent slipping but not so much that you feel like youve got heavy soles.

The height is perfect and provides support. The material is sturdy without being stiff. (In the terrain boots, the leather is very very soft and stretches out. This is not, thankfully) and another bonus, they are *not* heavy!

I cant think of a thing I don't like about these boots! They fit, don't look clunky, so you can wear them out and they look good.

I wore regular thickness socks. And they were comfortable all day into the evening. If you are riding, don't wear these. Too much tread. For everything else? These are my new go to shoes!
