I've been a staunch Double-H fan for over a decade as (until recently) I've found them to be the most comfortable boots.

I decided to try these as they were 40% off during a black friday special and these blow the HHs away.  I was leery about the cutout for the heel in the back of the boot but it gives Ariat the ability to make the upper of the boot fit much more snugly and comfortably.

The waterproof is also excellent, these are the first waterproof boots I've bought, and now I regret never having bought a pair before.
