Customer Reviews Ariat Heritage Lacer II

I have difficult feet: size 10, narrow, and high-arched. (Ever try to find light-weight, non-ugly hiking shoes in a narrow size?) I HATE shopping for shoes, and when I finally convince myself to buy some, I sit around staring at them for weeks, unwilling to try something that will probably prove to be too wide or take months to break in. I had none of these problems with the Ariat Heritage Lacers that my husband kindly bought me on Zappos so that I would have something rugged and waterproof for travel. They are slightly too wide, so I needed two pairs of socks. I was also put off at first by how long my feet looked in a paddock boot. On the other hand, when I finally made myself wear them, the AHLs went on my feet and stayed there for 30 hours while I traveled from California to Britain. They didn’t pinch, my very narrow heels didn’t shift and blister, and my feet stayed warm and dry. I wore them up steep Welsh hills, in various airports, and around miles and miles of London pavement. My horse-riding daughter was right: these Ariats are keepers.

Love the look of these boots and the quality is superb, but they are so heavy, my legs ache from the weight. I wanted something a bit more country looking because I usually wear pretty girly looking stuff. These were to be the start of a mid-life image change for me. Sadly, I don’t have the leg strength to wear them.

Well, I love Ariat boots, had a pair of paddock Ariats that I wore out after 10 years. So, I thought I\'d try these. Unfortunately, they are not true to size - I am a 9.5 in shoes and these fit more like a 10. Also, the right was stretched out compared to the left boot. Also noticed they were made in China - not happy about that. So, I returned them and have ordered a pair of 1880 Lucchese boots. More true to size and made in America, which I think is something we all should support these days.

My favorite boots of all time were Ariat Ropers, so the brand was an easy choice. After admiring the man's Heritage Lacer at my favorite barber shop, I was so pleased to find the woman's version. Great fit, comfortable, perfect heel height.

Love this boot! Wore my previous pair for years; and, I highly recommend it for all disciplines. Pair with half chaps for galloping tbs or schooling event horses. Wear with your Wranglers for all western events

I absolutely love these boots! I have worn them for years. The fit is always perfect!

I love the style and fit of these boots. They make my feet look small which I like.

These boots are so comfortable, right from the day I got them. They have good arch support, and the wide width is perfect. They clean up really well. They are great for working around the yard, yet they look dressy, too.

Best Boots Ever! I got a 9.5 Wide, and it was the best decision ever. Comfortable from the start. Wore them for 6+ hours and never got blisters.

These Boots are so durable I wear them everyday and work in them every day they go through a beating and they hold up and they are waterproof my feet are always dry. Not only are they great boots and they last a very long time and I think the style tones wonderful I love the style as soon as I get no money I'm going to order the black ones I highly recommend these.

Love the style and fit. Seriously comfortable. I would recommend to a friend.

I love these boots they are very comfortable and they last longer than any other boot that I have had. They are made very well and broke in very fast.

I selected the perfect size! They feel great. The only issue would be the tongue of the boot moves out of place when you wear them

This is my 4th pair of similar Ariat boots and they have been high quality, long lasting and durable. There is no breakin time, I wore this pair for 3 days in total comfort. They are also beautiful. I bought this particular pair because it is available in a C width and I have a bunion on the left foot. So happy with it!
