Detailed Review
The ARIAT Men's Work Industrial and Construction Boots shine in various aspects essential for work footwear. Firstly, their comfort level is commendable; thanks to the EVA midsole which provides lightweight shock absorption, your feet will stay comfortable even after an entire day's work. The ATS Max technology further enhances this experience by reducing foot fatigue and providing stability.
Additionally, the boots' safety features are top-notch. The composite safety toe is not only lightweight but also provides excellent protection, while maintaining compliance with ASTM standards. This ensures your toes are protected from potential hazards encountered at worksites.
Moreover, the durability of these boots is evident through the Duratread outsole. This feature not only promises a strong grip and slip resistance but also ensures the longevity of the product, making it a worthy investment for those working in rugged environments.
However, while the boots excel in many areas, they do have a couple of drawbacks. Some users may find them slightly heavier when compared to other brands, especially during prolonged wear. Additionally, the selection of colors is somewhat limited, as these boots primarily adhere to traditional styles.
Overall, the ARIAT Men's Work Boots are a fantastic choice for anyone looking for reliable, durable, and comfortable work footwear. They are particularly suited for individuals who spend significant time in challenging outdoor conditions.

User Reviews
These boots have made my work around our farm much more comfortable. They slide on easily, which is helpful when I need to head outside in a hurry. They are durable and comfortable. The safety toe has come in handy a few times when my foot gets stepped on by a cow. I highly recommend these boots.
Great boots . Very comfortable .
These are work boots. My job is in the HVAC field and I work 5-6 days a week, which consist of wearing these boots 10-12 hours a day. The last pair of Workhogs lasted me 2 years before I had to retire them, mostly due to appearance. I tried the Ariat H20 boots but they only lasted a year and were not as comfortable as these. These boots fit great and are comfortable. The biggest difference I could tell was in how the Workhogs fit around the foot. It's a snug / molded feeling compared to the H20. It took about a day or 2 for the all around boot stiffness to loosen up a bit. The upper leather is sturdy and stands on its own. Tread / traction is great. I've learned my lesson, I'll stick with the WorkHogs from now on.
For the money I would expect more than 1 year of use. I work in maintenance and expected more out of it
Definitely water proof as they hold in all sweat as well. A little heavy compared to other boots we’ve bought from Ariat, which is weird considering the composite toe. They do their job.
This is my second pair in 6ish years. I work oilfield and ever since my first pair I will never wear anything else for work. As in all leather work boots you will have to break them in using your preferred method (putting them on after hot water soak and walking in them with 2 pairs of work socks while flexing your toes, or saddle soaping the hell out of them)Most comfort and the longevity has been way longer than previous brands. The insoles are also comfy but I packaged it with the Ariat Square Toe after market insoles.By far my favorite boot! 5 stars!
These are quite literally the worst boots I have ever bought. Are these factory seconds? Was the person making them rushing through for the weekend? I have been wearing Ariat 9EE boots for the past 12 years and every pair has fit properly except this pair. They are too tight in the heel, which collapses under my foot as I try to pull it on. They are too tight over the arch, causing the amount of force necessary to pull them on. I can literally hear stitches giving way on the pulls. And to make matters worse, it feels like they took a toe cap from a regular width 9 and stuffed it into what's supposed to be a wide square toe. Both my pinky toe and big toe are rubbing simultaneously on the edges of the toe cap. Just adding salt to the wound is the fact that my toes are crammed against the end, even with my heel properly seated.This is the second horrible experience in a row with Ariat work boots, although the previous pair at least fit properly. I'll be movong to a different brand like Twisted X.
Got these for our third anniversary and he loves them! Composite toe is perfect with his mechanic work. He puts tires directly on his feet to move them and these boots make it so he can’t feel anything. Very comfortable, very good support, very good color and durability!
