Some Top Picks In Ariat Square Toe Boots

If you’ve come in search of Ariat square toe boots, rest easy in your senses of discretion and taste, because Ariat is a provider of some of the highest quality footwear available. Ariat boots offer some of the most innovative advancements in support technology, protection, and style that you can find in the market for western boots like cowboy boots or even in work boots. We’re going to take a look at some of our top picks in Ariat square toe boots, but first, we’re going to set some prerequisites for what qualifies a boot as a piece of footwear and how Ariat has hit it out of the park.

Boots Must Be Supportive
The first thing to look for in a pair of boots is a high level of support. Boots should be supportive and flexible, not just comfortable to stand in but to move and work in as well. Boots that don’t offer a high level of support will become uncomfortable to wear for any period of time. It’s actually a fairly common complaint that boots don’t offer the proper support, and it’s a sore plight indeed when your boots not only don’t support you properly but become themselves a burden.

Ariat was the first company to create western boots with athletic footwear technology to provide incomparable support to riders and workers that chose their boots. Even today, Ariat continues to be a leader when it comes to incorporating new technology into their boots. For example, many Ariat boots incorporate their legendary 4LR® technology that provides unbeatable stability and comfort. It’s a four-layer footbed with a shank that offers the wearer the comfort of rebounding technology with the strength of a shank. Many Ariat boots have soles making the most of Ariat’s Duratread® technology as well. Their Duratread® soles are created from a rubber compound that offers more durability than traditional rubber blends, offering a high degree of flexibility as well as resistance to oils and acids for unprecedented traction.

These are only a few of the technology innovations that help to define Ariat as a brand and provide a matchless level of support in their boots. There are many more features that make Ariat boots impressively supportive which we will investigate on a closer level with some of our boots.

Boots Must Be Protective
Support is only one part of the picture that a pair of boots should offer the wearer. There’s a reason for wearing boots in the first place, isn’t there? It’s because boots offer additional protection over other styles and designs of footwear, and if a boot isn’t protective it won’t do much good.

There’s more to protection than just a steel or composite toe. These are important features, but far from the only thing that defines the protective qualities of a good pair of Ariat square toe boots.

Many Ariat boots feature full-grain leather uppers, which offer protection unlike anything else. As anyone who has ever made use of full-grain leather will attest, it’s impressively good at turning away anything that might harm the person wearing it. Whether you’re wearing full grain leather gloves, a vest or even boots, it’s going to stand up to abuse much better than you might expect.

This comes in handy for anyone wearing boots, but especially for anyone who will use their boots for riding or for work. Full-grain leather will protect the foot, ankle and even part of the leg when riding through rough country or through obstacles such as briars or brush thickets. Full-grain leather also happens to be your best choice for a material that will age well, even gracefully, with care. Full-grain boots will protect you many years from now if you make sure to provide them with the right care.

They Might As Well Look Good, Right?
If you’ve covered support and protection you can pretty much get anything else you want in a pair of boots, so they might as well bring a touch of style to the table, right? Ariat boots offer not just the best technological support and protections out there, but an untouchable sense of spirit and style that you can feel as soon as you see them. So, without further ado, here are some top picks in Ariat square toe boots.

1. Ariat Men’s Black Deertan Legend Western Square Toe Cowboy Boots
These Ariat boots don’t leave too much to be desired in a pair of boots. At first sight, they might appear simplistic, even humble, but the more time you give yourself to appreciate them the more they will grow on you.

At first glance, they appear to be simple black uppers, but the unadorned vamp gives way to a beautifully stitched quarters. In fact, there’s even something in the fact that there’s no contrast in the leather - it’s all done in black. It’s humble but at the same time eye-catching.

These boots also make the most of Ariats ATS® midsole and Duratread® soles for unparalleled support and traction. For a pair of dress boots that keep all the style of a pair of western work boots, these are simply an excellent option.

If you like this style of boot for what a little bit more flash and contrast from the stitching and design, consider our Ariat Men’s Sport Western Wide Square Toe Cowboy Boots in Black Deertan as an alternative.

2. Ariat Men’s Rambler Wicker Urban Square Toe Cowboy Boots
Here’s another pair of Ariat square toe boots that have a winsome look despite its simplicity. In fact, they are probably so attractive because of their simplicity. For what they lack in the decorative stitching of so many western boots they make up for with a rugged, distinguished distressed look. Pair them with jeans and put a little bit of a patina on them and you’ll end up with a look that can’t be bought and has to be earned.

Their ATS® footbed offers moisture-wicking technology and is gel-cushioned for excellent rebound and support. Even in a simple pair of Ariat’s like this you can expect the highest level of comfort and dependability.

3. Ariat Men’s Promoter Carmello Smooth Ostrich Western Cowboy Boots
While our previous two entries may have made their mark for their humility, this is a pair that is just ideal for someone who demands a little more unique style in a pair of boots. This pair of square toe boots uses smooth quill ostrich leather for a character that can’t be imitated. As if the distinction of ostrich leather weren’t enough, the sharply contrasting quarters feature a handsome stitching pattern that will turn heads.

Don’t let their appearance fool you, though. As captivating as they are, these boots make the most of an ATS® insole and Duratread® outsole for the legendary comfort and support to which we have already testified.

4. Ariat Men’s Sport Barley Brown Cowboy Boot
Here’s a pair of square toe boots that pairs a little bit of flash with a whole lot of function. Its full-grain foot and upper can hardly be beaten for durability and protection and will age beautifully with time and wear.

The full-grain uppers are paired with Ariat’s 4LR® system and Duratread® technologies to bring you a pair of boots that will keep you comfortable all day long and give you traction that can’t be surpassed, even in the face of spills.

But that’s not all these boots can do. The uppers feature the traditional six-row stitching so characteristic of western boots without adding too much garish flair. Somehow the perfect balance is struck in this pair of boots between simplicity and stylistic appeal, and the effect is very versatile.

5. Ariat Men’s Sport Cool VentTek Tan Western Cowboy Boot
Do you work outside in the hot summer days and need a boot that is not only supportive and protective but can keep you cool and dry at the same time? Most of the time, staying dry means investing in the best waterproof boots around, but when it’s summertime and you’re in the sun, that might mean a pair of boots with the technology to keep you from sweating excessively and allow air circulation to keep you dry.

These Ariat VentTek boots are an excellent choice for overall protection coupled with features that will help keep you dry in the heat. The shaft of the boot is vented to help keep your feet and legs dry when the temperatures start to climb. And, in true Ariat fashion, they didn’t miss a chance to ornament the vented shafts with some beautiful stitching, so you can never compromise on style even when you need the best function.

If you like these boots but you want a little extra personal or patriotic style in your boots, take a look at the Quickdraw American Flag VentTek Cowboy Boots. They offer all of the same functionality of their cooling panels and pair it with the vibrant colors of the Stars & Stripes.

6. Ariat Men’s Workhog H2O XT Composite Safety Toe Pull-On Work Boot
If you’re in the market for the kind of protection that work boots can afford, you can still find a pair of Ariat square toe boots to fit the bill. These boots feature the protection of full-grain leather uppers to protect your foot and lower leg as well as the lightweight protection of a carbon composite safety toe to keep your toes protected in work zones. In addition, these boots are waterproof to protect you from the hazards of spills and wet working conditions.

Thick, heavy Duratread® outsoles are aggressively and deeply treaded to afford you maximum traction even when conditions are wet and slippery, and these soles are oil-resistant as well. These boots also feature such technology as a shock-absorbing midsole and Ariat’s ATS® technology for support and comfort, as well as Ariat’s U-Turn® system to make it easier to get the boots on and off. One more thing - as you might have come to expect from Ariat, they didn’t miss a beat and stitched the upper handsomely as they do with so many of their boots.

7. Ariat Men’s Top Brown Rambler Ultra Short Zipper Western Boot
Here’s a boot you can use when you want a bit of a toned-down look without the full ornamentation of some of Ariat’s more decorous options. These boots are a little shorter than some of their other offerings and almost present the style of Chukka boots or other dress boots. They still afford the protection and style of full-grain uppers but Ariat pairs them with their Bantam Weight® outsole for a slightly less aggressive option than their Duratreads® that, at the very least, are much lighter for all-day comfort. If you need a pair of Ariats for the city or for days where you’ll be doing lots of urban walking, it would be very hard to beat boots like these for comfort and style.
