ARIATMen's Intrepid Venttek Composite Toe Work Boot

I'm still not sure these boots are worth $230, but if you're willing to pay that much for a work boot like this, I don't think you will be disappointed.Although I was VERY disappointed when the first pair I received took extra time to arrive and were dirty, and in obviously used condition... but this second pair arrived quickly, in perfect condition, inside of a fresh box, and with all tags and packaging intact. I ordered a half size down from my lace-up boots and the fit is perfect. They are also surprisingly lightweight and comfortable, even though the composite toes make them look a little clunky. I don't think the "ventek" panels do much to increase ventilation (especially under jeans) but I like the look of them anyway, so I'm not complaining. I think these might be my new favorite pair of workboots.

Bought these for my teenaged son. Have bought this brand over a year ago and even though they are expensive I will do so happily. Found this brand lasts twice as long as other brands For a young man who has always been extremely tough on footwear it’s very important. He has been known to literally wear out the soles and leather of work boots within 3-4 months. Comfortable, sturdy, & of great value.

Great boots

For the most part I like the way they fit. The left one was a little tight but I think they will break in. I've had them roughly 2 weeks? I really like the fact they slip on and just a great looking boot in general. Every boot I have ever had has needed some break in time and I have faith these will be the same. They seem very well constructed and not too much of a heel in the back. I really like the rusted look and even when I get them muddy they hose off easily and go back to the rustic look. I would definitely recommend

I've been wearing Ariats for over 8 years now and I've never had a blister or problem with the "break in" period. I've been doing electrical for over 15 years and don't like the idea of steel toes. The composite toes work just as well exactly since I work on 277/480 most of the time. I can walk over 5 miles in one day right out of the box and they never once hurt my feet. This is the 3rd pair I've own and they last me around 2 years. Definitely a great boot if you don't mind spending the money.

The boots fit true to size, broke in fast, and have held up well over the last month and a half of owning them. I work as an HVAC Tech and use them across all kinds of surfaces and rooftops. I recommend water proofing them to get the best value and life of them. The vents do make a difference and you can feel less foot suffocation during long or hot days.

The media could not be loaded. Had these for literally days now.Soles do not wear then split and shred apart.No real goodyear welt so these soles are NOT replaceable.Heel is EXTREMELY uncomfortable as they tried to cut out around the leather to make a vent. Now that leather flaps folds up and binds at the heel.The vents are a good idea but i definitely should not be on the heel.
