Ariat
Challenge Field Boot
English Chaps/Boots/Helmets
Manufacturer: Ariat
Model: Challenge Field Boot
Category: English Chaps/Boots/Helmets
Purchase: I bought these boots on ebay new for around $200(what a STEAL!!!). They are around $360 at Dover I believe. I bought them because I was getting more into showing and needed a good pair of show boots.
Likes: The leather is very soft and supple and breaks in easily. The ATS system makes them very comfortable and the part around my foot fits well. I like the punched toe cap and the back zipper makes them quick and easy to get on and off.
Dislikes: The leg part of the boot doesn't fit my leg very well(I am a tall, thin person). They are snug enough but the front is kind of puffy. Also the ankle area is sort of wide(maybe I just have a really skinny ankle). Also the boot is slightly too tall for me and I have to partially unzip them to bend down.(the boots are 10 tall/slim and I am around 5'9")
Quality: The quality is very nice. Like I said above, the leather is very soft and easy to break in. The zipper seems to not be breaking any time soon. Everything has stayed in tack and the stitching is still good.
Summary: The boots are good quality, they're super comfy, and the price was AWSOME!! They would probably make better schooling boots than show boots due to there fit. Other than the fit I like the boots a lot.
