Ariat
Heritage Paddock Boots
English Chaps/Boots/Helmets
Manufacturer: Ariat
Model: Heritage Paddock Boots
Category: English Chaps/Boots/Helmets
Purchase: I bought these at a local tack store because i wanted a durable pair of paddock boots that I could use all day and stay comfortable. They were $99.
Likes: These boots have a very classy appearence and a reasonable price. They were pretty comfortable for the most part as well.
Dislikes: After close to 6 months of use, the "leather" used on the boots around the toe area started to peal off, allowing my foot to get wet whenever there was any sort of water around. The sole of the shoe started to come off as well. I had regularly cleaned and oiled these boots, and they were stored inside. Ariat was very understanding and replaced the boots for free, but the same thing happened AGAIN!
Quality: I was extremely dissapointed in the quality of the heritage line. They leather was terribly thin and not durable whatsoever. They quality of contruction was sub par as well, since the sole started to peel off after only 6 or so months. Not at all what I expected from an always high quality brand such as Ariat.
Summary: These boots have a nice, tradition appearence, and offer enough comofrt to get by. I would not recommend these boots to any serious equestrians who are in the barn all day- they just won't hold up. However, I would imagine that these boots would be wonderful for the weekend or occasional/novice rider, because they carry a good price.
