Frequently asked questions

ARIAT Groundbreaker Work Boots are designed with durability in mind, featuring a robust full-grain leather upper, a heavy-duty Duratread outsole that provides maximum wear resistance and flexibility, and a wide square toe for added comfort. The boot is also equipped with a four-layer footbed for cushioning and a stability shank for support, making them suitable for various work environments.

Standard ARIAT Groundbreaker Work Boots are not advertised as waterproof. However, some variants may have a waterproof construction. It is important to check the specific model details for waterproof features if that's a necessary requirement for your work conditions.

There are different models of ARIAT Groundbreaker Work Boots, with some offering a safety toe option for added protection. If your job requires safety toe footwear, look for the Groundbreaker models labeled 'Steel Toe' or 'Composite Toe' which meet ASTM safety standards.

It is recommended to refer to ARIAT’s official size chart to find the right fit. For the Groundbreaker Work Boots, consider the width of your feet since these boots are available in wide options and remember that they may need a break-in period to adjust to your foot shape. If possible, trying them on in-store before purchasing or consulting online reviews for sizing tips can be beneficial.

  • Comfortable
Size: 15 Wide Color: Brown
These boots are extremely comfortable right out of the box and have held up great with daily work. I’m on my feet a lot, and they provide solid support without causing fatigue. The build quality is impressive—very durable and clearly made to last in tough conditions. On top of that, they’re priced right for what you get. Overall, a reliable, hardworking boot that I’d definitely recommend. ... show more

  • Great quality and comfort for work and casual
Size: 9 Color: Brown
Extremely happy with these boots. I’ve been wearing them every day for over a year. They broke in fast and are very durable. I do clean and treat the leather every month or so to try and preserve them.

  • Great quality, lets see how they break in!
Size: 10 Color: Brown
Great fit, still can't review the comfort or durability as I'm in the break in period. I will say they scuff but I don't care about that too much. But even now, it feels good. Knees didn't hurt at the end of the day, after walking on concrete for 8 hours, and it's easy to take on/off, but it holds my foot in place perfectly. Slip resistance is amazing, working on oily/wet floors all day as a mechanic. I wouldn't recommend getting a wide size unless you've tried it in person. I thought I was a 10W but it actually slightly slipped on me when I tried it at my local boot barn. Got a 10 regular online, since they only had a 10W in person, and it fits perfectly. ... show more

  • Husband loves these boots.
Size: 10.5 Color: Brown
My husband asked me to find him a pair of boots so I hopped on Amazon and filtered out things that he was looking for by asking him about his preferences, there weren’t much options that popped up after and most of them were ridiculous designs, this one was nice, I sent him a picture and he definitely wanted them. We ordered them and they got here within a day or so (prime). They’re good quality boots, easy to put on, very comfortable. The wide vs normal I think were the width options, I read reviews that these tend to run large, and my husband doesn’t have wide feet so we went with normal or whatever the not wide option was. They were still pretty roomy but he needed to get more boot socks and that helped a lot, I recommended he get inserts for them and he seemed to think that was a good idea, not sure if he ever did though. My husband wears size 10 in regular shoes, I think we were between getting size 11 or 10.5 (because the difference for boot sizes) I believe we went with 10.5 because of the reviews about them running large, I believe my husband said he could have gone half a size or a size down but when I asked if he wanted to return them for a different size he said no way lol. He loves them and they seem very durable, and good quality. Just make sure you pay attention to the size and maybe get thick boot socks/inserts if need be. Worked for us. ... show more

  • Beyond pleased!
Size: 10 Color: Brown
I've been considering buying square toe cowboy-style work boots for a while as I love the style and wanted something for every day wear out and about (not for a work site). I considered these and another brand on Amazon and after reading countless reviews, figured I needed to take the leap and get them. The price was right (less than $100). Numerous reviews said these boots run 1/2 to 1 full size large, which was one of the biggest things that held me back from purchasing initially. My feet tend to run a men's size DM11 (normal width) in Salomon, Adidas, Asics, etc. I figured I should err on the side of 1 full size down, so I ordered DM10. Once they arrived, I found them to fit very snug around the arch and top of my foot (which one reviewer described as "giving your arch a firm handshake", which supposedly is how they're supposed to fit). This wasn't uncomfortable, per se, but I figured once the boots broke in, they'd fit about as perfectly as one could hope for. I wore them around for a couple of days, and LITERALLY, couldn't be more pleased with these boots! They're incredibly comfortable to walk and stand in for extended periods of time. They look absolutely fantastic! To say it simply, I'm thrilled with this purchase. I care for my clothing and footwear, and expect these to last a good long time. ... show more

  • Any boot that last 4 years got to be good
Size: 8.5 Wide Color: Brown
I have been wearing western style boots since I was 14 years old I’m 74 now. Justin boots Moonwalker hand made boots Nocuna boots. First thing for long life on any shoe or boot make sure feet are sized right. I was walking out of my boots in year because they weren’t sized right. My first pair of sized right boots were Nocuna boots this was because he took the time to size my feet they lasted 4 years resoled 2 times (leather soles don’t wear as long) I now wear Ariat boots my first pair Ariat Roper style in Jan 2015 I replaced them with same boot in May 2019. Then in April 2022 I purchased Ariat men’s Groundbreaker Wide Square Toe Work Boots I have to say these are the most comfortable boots for all day wear I have ever worn bar none. I should say when I had the Moonwalker Boots made on a 8.5 EE boot jack so I only ordered boots in that size. They aren’t hardly any shoe repair shops now my Moonwalker Boots were resoled 4 time made right with perfect fit quality leather something you hardly see anymore. ... show more

  • Frustrating!!!
Size: 9.5 Color: Brown
These were a replacement for the 1st pair I bought. So I went to tractor supply and sized these. I wear an 11 in everything else but in Doc Martens and Ariats I always go 1 full size down. I first ordered these in a 10 and they were 1inch too long so these were the replacements in size 9.5. I'm frustrated because the size 10s came in an Ariat box and we're packaged very well. These replacement 9.5s were in a generic box with no protection. They arrived very scuffed up. But Ok I could deal with that but the deal breaker is the right boot. The left fits perfectly but the right feels like a torture camp. No really, it's pain from the start, I left them on for an hour and after 5 mins I could feel my heart best in my foot. Now I can't feel anything. This right boot has to be a factory defect, it's bumpy and in no way has the shape of a foot, more like a hoof. And lastly the boot leather don't look remotely the same. The 10s are a deeper brown and much softer. The 9.5s are lighter brown, and very stiff. This could be a result in the amount of mink oil they used during shipping. I'm going to stick with the 10s and leave it as is 1 full size smaller and the crazy thing is my toes are in the exact same place. Ordering another side down didn't change the length only the feel. 1 full size down feels like a looser more comfortable causal feel. The 9.5s feel like tight torture devices. ... show more
