Ariat Women's Desert Holly Western Boot

Fits like a glove BUT only after you break them in properly. Here's how.1:Condition leather with Lexol.2:walk in a creek till your socks get wet. do not fill boot with water, only let it soak through from the outside3:walk around in those wet boots for an hour or so. Wet leather will form to your foot.4:Take out insoles and let them dry.5: Apply oil to the boot (I prefer caster oil but it will darken the leather) and once insoles are dry reinsert. The oil will soften leather and so it will draw into the pores as the boot dries6:put on dry socks and Walk around till the boots are completely dry!you're welcome.

I wasn’t sure. I’m pretty picky. I hadn’t bought new riding boots in 20 years. I loved my old boots. But it was time. I met these online. They caught my eye because of the brand reputation and stylish appearance. Ok, and we have the same first name, whatever. They were stiff when they got here. But who wouldn’t spending hours in a dark box in one position? They were stiff at first, but not too tight. The width was perfect but I do have narrow feet. They seemed like they might like rubbing on my ankle which made me nervous. Our first night out, we rode horses. They slid into the stirrups and held my feet and ankles in place like pros! They started loosing up after that. Have worn them several times a week since for longer periods of time. Because I can. We’re so comfortable together! The stitching seems solid and the color is as pictured in their profile. That never happens! I think I’m in love!! <3 The price? Worth it for another 20....or more?

I really love these boots. They are very comfortable. Very stylish. Looks great with jeans in or out. I have gotten a lot of compliments already. After reading the reviews I decided to order up 1/2 size than my normal size. They fit good but do have a little extra room that I heel slips up a bit. But since I have not tried on the other size I can not tel you if they would have been to right. Of course leather will stretch after you wear them so I am hoping that they will still be ok after they are broke in. This is my first pair of western boots so I have contemplated about buying for quite some time because of the cost so I will say they they are well made very comfortable and can be worn all day.After wearing these boots alot for a few months, I will say that these boots are the most comfortable boots that I have ever worn. I love them and I am very happy that I bought them.

These are super cute! But I only give 4 stars because they are a bit snug. I knew ariat ran small, and i bought my regular size, but I had tried the same pair on in a store near by (perfect fit) and the pair I bought on here was just a touch more narrow- I’m hopeful I’ll be able to break them in though! Also, a great boot if you tend to have a bigger calf muscle.

Loved these boots they are beautiful. However my instep and arch are too high so I couldn’t even put them on. But that’s not the seller’s fault hence the 5 stars

Boots are good looking and so comfortable!!!

I bought these twice. One time I got a half size up. Couldn’t get my foot in. Bought them again a size up from that and they still didn’t fit.I give up.I’m a size 8 and I’m not ordering a freaking size 10.

These are perfect for my upcoming wedding.
