ARIAT Fatbaby Western Boot

Bought these for my daughter , and I’ve personally purchased many many pairs of ariat fat baby boots for western riding and general day to day barn chores. I wear these boots everywhere and they hold up to the rigors of real farm life lol. Fit is true to sizing, and comfy as all heck! Terrific boot at a great price …always happy with mine and now so is my daughter !

I love these, very comfortable and beautiful. Do not hesitate to buy.

Stylist, great fit and comfortable. Easy to put on.

Love these boots! Actually, I live in the northeast and resemble a cowgirl about as much as disco music resembles country music….you can see the similarities, right? This is my second pair of Fatbaby Boots. The first pair were purchased on a whim “gently used” from a seller on that most popular auction website that Ends in BAY. At the time I was looking for a sturdy boot to trudge through the icy, sloppy, new England winter in, not looking specifically for a “cowgirl” boot, but the price was unbeatable and I was curious. Here it is 2yrs later and it can be said that these boots are unbeatable and are still handsome to boot! They have been worn 5 out of 7 days per week for 3 seasons each year (would have been 4 seasons if I was 40yrs younger!).

Most of my other boots and shoes are an 8.5 or euro 39. The Fatbaby boots I purchased on the auction website were an 8 and I was a little skeptical about the fit because I normally wear a size 8.5 shoe and can even go to a size 9 in a boot with thick socks on my feet. I have average width feet, not wide or narrow; I have a high arch and instep as well as a hammertoe on my left foot. (TMI?). However, the size 8 was perfect! So, I purchased these new Fatbaby Cowgirl boots in an 8, mostly because they were $20 less than the size 8.5 which I likely would have bought if the prices were the same.

Once again, the size 8 fits perfectly right from the start, even in a brand new boot! These fit like a shoe approved by the American Orthopedic Association but look as fashionable (Wild?) as the Cowgirls that I imagine they were intended for! I wear these boots with medium weight wool blend socks. There is plenty of room for all my toes and there is no pressure across the top of my high instep or at the front of the boot across the ankle. I can not feel any of the seams or stitching the way other reviewers have written that they can. The back of the heel sometimes moves but does not rub or bind. The footbed is not like walking on a cloud. It is firm but comfortable and very supportive. The innersole is removeable and I can fit the semirigid type orthotics inside very comfortably if I choose to, but find orthotics are not necessary because the boot is very supportive in and of itself. The nonskid sole is not lugged and is not as thick as my first pair of Fatbaby Boots (which show absolutely no wear on the tread) but it does seem to be more than adequate. The shaft is soft and supple, not thick and rigid, fabric lined inside and suedelike finish outside. The height is just right on my leg under wool, corduroy, or denim pants. (I’m 5’6″ and weigh about 140 lbs, size 10) The decorative stitching is lovely, the workmanship is high quality. The top opening is very roomy on me but I do have thinner than average calves. (Like I said, I’m no cowgirl)

Great fit, Great fashion, Great performance, great price! These may be my second pair of Fatbaby Boots but I’m sure they will not be my last. Go ahead….take a walk on the Cowgirl side!

These boots are CUTE!! The toe box is roomy – even for someone with wide feet. The boot is designed so it has a boxy toe box! This boot is comfy and looks cute with jeans and skirts. They are well made with quality leather and the heel is a perfect height. I’m not sure I’d wear them to the barn as the boot details would get very dirty. Overall I love these boots!

Great for working in the stalls.
