A trail ride sounds like one of the most peaceful outings you can participate in right now.
Whether you have a horse or plan or taking a vacation where horseback riding is a popular activity, you'll need a pair of riding boots. Ariat riding boots are some of the best boots out there, so consider Ariat for all of your equestrian needs.
Ariat customers are impressed with the break-in period of the boots. Having a pair of high-quality boots that feel comfy for hours is essential for riding. Here are eight riding boots that equestrians can't live without.
Do Ariat Horse Riding Boots Run Big
Boots Empire says, "Ariat boots tend to run a bit larger than other brands, so suggested sizing is true to size or ordering half a size smaller than your normal shoe size. "
Work Gearz even compiled a boot size chart to help you out.
Having boots that run big can be a hassle, but it beats running small (in my opinion). Thick socks can always help with boots, but feel free to take your chances and size down or go with your regular size.
Ariat's Return Policy
- Return items should be unworn, and still have their tags and original packaging.
