Not for me.
Ordered because my "go to" boot was out of stock. Very difficult to put on and take off (if the loop breaks off the back from my excessive tugging there will be no hope), not what I was expecting. I did like that they are fairly waterproof and will keep them to use when I have to give baths and/or trudge through the mud but will have to return to traditional paddock boots.

Strange Design
could've get my foot through the small opening so I didn't know if the footbed was ok or not

Not a fan of pull-on
I just got these because I can't wear normal boots due to a metal plate in my lower leg. It doesn't bother my leg, which is great, but I really hate the pull-on! On top of being a pain to get on, the fit isn't great and I can't do anything to adjust it. The upper side of the foot is too tight and then the back stretches away from my Achilles when I flex my heel. I really wish it had laces like a traditional paddock boot so I could adjust the fit. I don't have any other options, so I'm going to try half a size bigger to see if that fits the top of my foot better.

So disappointed
I bought these over a year ago but have been wearing them for just over 8 months. I really wanted to like them. For the first few days I had to wear a bandaid to protect my heal from getting a blister. They 'broke in' quickly and I was quite pleased at how comfortable they were - once they were on! They are VERY difficult to get on! If they had a zipper or more elastic that would have taken care of it. As it was, every day I struggled and it didn't get any easier. The final straw for me was the fact that they are coming apart!! The sole is coming off the shoe. It started in the rear, which made sense to me considering how hard I had to pull to get them on. But, it has now started happening everywhere on the shoe, even where there is no pressure from putting them on. The slightest amount of water seeps right in and I can't wear them anymore because it seems that any time soon they are going to come completely apart. i am disappointed because I do like the style, comfort and material of these shoes and had hoped I had found a good dependable paddock boot.

Runs very small
I was super excited to try these paddock boots as I have been a long time wearer of the V sport paddock boots that are discontinued. These boots are just as comfortable and even lighter than those… But they run very small and rather narrow. I am a trainer on my feet or on a horse in my boots 8+ hours a day. I am consistently a size 10 in all of my Ariat boots for over a decade, these fit quite narrow to my not wide at all feet. I ended up getting such a painful blister on both of my heels. They’ve been in the closet since. Very comfortable boot, but go up a size!

Won’t even last a year
Bought these boots with the hopes that they would be the quality and durability I was looking for. Wanted something I could ride in and wash my horse in. They seemed great at first, and comfortable, but not even a year later the soles are detaching and the leather is peeling off. My feet get soaked when any water hits them. Looks like I’ll be in the market for another pair of boots, not even a year later.

Durable and comfortable
The boots are great for riding! Very comfortable and allows for good stirrup feel. Easy to wash and clean. The only things that I don't consider 5 stars are that they are kind of a pain to put on, really have to shove it in there. And they squeak...a lot. True to size.

Great Concept, Needs Improvement
I've worn Ariat boots for over 30 years and I wasn't impressed with these. They are very comfortable, true to size and easy to put on however, they started coming apart after just a few months of regular use. The sole was separating at the toe. I also found that these have no temperature regulation whatsoever. If it's hot out, my feet are hot. If it's cold out, they're cold. I like the concept but the design needs improvement.

Amazing
I bought this a while ago and when I received them I was over the moon. They are so comfortable. I bought these a size up as I thought they would be tight, but they weren’t.
