User Reviews
For me I have no arch in my feet and they are also really wide. I usually range in shoe size from a 7.5-8. I bought the 8 and loved them! They fit great, the laces have worn out a bit, but this is because ive worn them alot. I wear them with skinny jeans, shorts, and flares!
The prickly pear shoes are so pretty I couldn't resist them. I also purchased the buffalo pattern a few months ago and they are just as beautiful. The tops of the prickly pears look like a vibrant water color on canvas. The buffalo has a distressed kind of appeal. For both, the colors are true to the photo.I got a size 8 in the buffalo to wear when it's too cool not to wear socks. I got the prickly pear in a 7.5 for warm weather when I don't like wearing socks and dress in more colorful summer outfits. I have a somewhat wide foot and generally order an 8, though I'm technically a 7.5W. I have no problem getting a good fit in Ariats if I base my size choice on whether I'll be putting socks on my feet. Also, the shoe's lining makes not wearing socks ok.The leather is thick and simply beautiful! There is a lot of cushioning in the foot bed, so the shoes are comfortable for hours of wear. And there is plenty of arch support, though I can't speak to how good they might be for those with weak arches. And while they are a somewhat casual design, they can be dressed up to look sweet with a skirt or a western style dress.I love Ariats. The quality is consistent, as is the fit. These would be ideal for travel as they are light and flexible, yet tough and comfy for long walks and long days.Watch the prices. They can vary by as much as 33%. However, even at full price, they are worth the expense. These will last for several seasons.
Not my first pair of Ariat shoes and definitely will not be my last. So comfortable and they wear so well. And of course they are cute with almost everything. Totally run true to size.
Absolutely love these shoes, the style and comfort
♥️
These are a beautiful shoe. So comfortable and true to size.The leather is gorgeous and you can dress up or go casual. This is the 2nd pair of this brand that I have purchased as I was so impressed with them.
I love these shoes! I have boney feet and the seams don't rub my feet anywhere!!I'm a 6.5‐7 and got the 7.It seems like I get size 7 in all my shoes now.Anyway, I love the color of these! They are shiny but not in an overpowering away. They look just like the advertised photo.They have a unique color of their own. So cute!They are very comfortable but wish the sole was a bit thicker. One could always wear an insole with them but I'd size up if you we're going to do that.I have Planters Fasciitis and I wouldn't wear these as an all-day run around shoe.But I have numerous other times that I can wear them!If you don't have PF you'll be just fine with these.
Love these shoes they are so cute!
