- In this sponsored video, I test out the Ariat Heritage Roper to see how it stacks up and I think it is a better value than the Ariat Rambler.

I love how when you test them out you don’t just wear them but actually use them through real work, great video! I think I’ll get some
I had a pair of these when I was 10 and they were brand new and only $25. I wore them into the ground with my foot sticking through the bottom of the sole. They were amazing and I felt like walt longmire!👍
Longmire is such a great show!
I’ve been curious about these for a while now. I appreciate the review and I love the extended tests.
Thanks! Glad you liked it. Cheers buddy!
I love this review, you always do a true review and rundown, and the extended test is always a very good indicator if the boot's a Keeper or a Pass. Thank you JC.
I’ve had a pair of these for 1.5 years and I’ve beat the hell out of them. They look great broken in & feels like I’m walking on clouds. I love the minimalistic look they have, they fit just about any outfit I might wear. I just put them off to the side as I got a pair of the Boulet 4 Piece Ostriches after watching your review on those.
These were my first cowboy boots eight years ago. I have replaced them a few times since but this video always makes me happy.
I am in Southern California with family in Austin. needed a good pair of first time boots when I visit them. I chose these because of your video. these are awesome boots.
Great extended test video. Nice job getting things ready for winter. You are quite the outdoorsman. Well done 👍
I just got my pair this evening...breaking them in now! Thanks for this review Jeremiah!
Great video! The boots are amazing and I can't believe how good they look after all that work on the ground!
Thanks! Yeah not bad!
Your video was so convincing I just bought a pair !!!! With Kind regards from France !!! Take care. Kim
This just may be the best looking boot I've ever seen in action. Perfection. This should be how all boot reviews are done, showing them in their natural habitat so to speak. In this case, it's a no B.S. roper meant to get shit done. I need to give this boot another look and try a pair on.
Great video! I like how you show the boots being used
I'm about to get a pair of these. Thanks for the review!
I bought a pair about a month ago. They are hard to break in. But very comfortable and will be a awesome boot.TY for sharing
Mine took a bit to break in too
I have a pair of these. They’ve become my everyday boot. I absolutely love them.
I just bought some today! They’re so comfy! Great price as well.
I actually plan on getting both the roper & rambler but trying to decide whether to get a whole or half size smaller. Thanks for this valuable information!
That's a great review Jeremiah. I've had a pair of Heritage Ropers for 5 years. They are my motorcycle riding and beater boot. With only occasional cleaning and waterproofing they are holding up well, and looks like they'll last a few more years. I've replaced the insoles twice, but the Duratread heels and soles have only moderate wear.
Nice! Glad to hear they are holding up!
Still rocking the ramblers proudly 😂
I always thought I wanted these boots. Now I know I want these boots.
good looking boot, I used to have a pair, it was so good that I got tired of wearing them after 4 or 5 years and gave them to a friend of mine, they were my every day boot and they are good for those guys who don´t want to stand out wearing very flashy cowboy boots (I love flashy boots), they look like a casual shoe, but you can still get the feel of a true western boot.
Nice splittin’ there Tex. 👍🏻 That’s a solid lumberjack swing.
An ol’ timer once told me, “Never skimp on your shoes or your mattress; when you’re not on your feet, you’re on your back.”
Talked to a boot smith out SE of San Antonio, he said as Ariats and other mass produced boots have the soles and heels integrated in the molding process, he had no way to re-build when need be.
I lean towards Olathe these days.....Paul Bond makes some incredible boots.....
Don’t confuse VALUE with CHEAP; a boot of VALUE might have a high up front cost but can be re-built and last 6-8 years, while a CHEAP boot will have to be re-bought 3-4 times per year.
You get what you pay for.
I agree with this 100%. There's a market for everything
I agree... Well being made in china says everything really .. doesn't it ?
@@ÆCMEnot really... I buy boots from China and they're comparable to my Red Wings, Thursdays, Loakes and British made Lanx boots. There's good and bad everywhere kid. Just need to know what you're buying and who from
Remember, the Chinese are only building what outside companies are asking for. It's not a question of "Chinese quality" it's a question of mark up on cost
I've own a pair of these for 8 yrs and only had to do 1/2 sole repair. I wear them ALL the time. I own many other pairs of boots, but for knocking around on the property and doing any task, these things are so comfortable!
great boot review my friend!! love those tunes at the end!!!
Thanks so much!
Another great video!! I like the extended reviews ! Peace out bro!
These were given to me as a gift by my mother for Christmas in black. I think the shape of the toe is perfect, not too wide like most ariats can be. The height is perfect too.
that song at the end was beauty lol much love from alberta
Thanks. I've been thinking about picking up a pair. 👍
awesome video as always
These are damn good boots. I've had mine for years and can't kill 'em!
I just purchased the same pair 13 EE. Very comfortable. Money well spent.
I’ve had two pair. Love them.
So simple and classic looking. I love em
Great review, the Bills shirt was the frosting on the cake
Awesome videos! I recently bought my first pair of adult boots. I hadn't worn boots since I was a kid when Justin had every single color in their roper line in the 90's and I wore brush poppers with my black ropers. I had trouble finding a pair that fit the way the sales people said they should. I ended up getting the Justin stampede. Do you not make videos of custom boot makers often? There are two custom boot makers i was hoping to get some knowledge on. One is Paul Bond boots Co in Nogales, AZ and the other is Stewart boot manufacturing Co in South Tucson, AZ. I know the price goes up considerably which I wouldn't mind paying if its worth it over store bought boots. Both of those makers have been around over 50 years. Thanks for guiding me with ariat insoles and how to condition boots!
Thank you on the pictures it didn’t look like the black was small but they look good
You should fly out to Wyoming with every pair of cowboy boots you own, and review them on the bison ranch I work at haha.
What part of Wyoming, spent two summers up in Esterbrook on a fire crew......great times!
Can you get me a job lmao always something I wanted to learn
I had the Sierra work boots, very similar to these almost identical, I got them in 7th grade and wore them until my senior year in high school. They were tough as nails I wore them for cutting grass, hiking, hunting, construction work, fishing, you name it.
I have these in black, and I’d like a pair in distressed brown too. I bought 11.5D earlier in the year, and in hindsight, I should have bought 11.5B or 11D. For those looking for the B widths, Amazon carries them, and when they’re in good supply, they’re even available to try on in their Prime Wardrobe program.
got a pair in melbourne australia a few weeks ago $220 , very happy with them
Love my ramblers, but, may try some of these
Big Ariat fan
Have bought enough to have my sizing down
Really liking a couple pairs Two 24 I’ve got recently
And you’re probably not into the Chelsea style but I got a pair of the Ariat Recons
Which are a western style Chelsea with wedge sole
Super comfortable and leans towards that work style a bit
You should do another review on a pair of American made Double H boots. I’d love to hear your opinions on their build quality in detail.
I did a quick impression at a store and I loved them. Can't wait to try one on an extended test czcams.com/video/iHac00gAyDQ/video.html
@@JeremiahCraig Awesome, man! Can’t wait to see which model you go with. They’ve released all kinds of new stuff since then.
Best boots ever. I have been wearing my Double Hs for about 8 years everyday. They’re still going strong. Have only needed to replace the heel cap.
I have that same shirt, 😂 I love that place
You're convincing me on these
Really enjoyed watching your review, even though you’re sponsored by Ariat you don’t let that affect giving an honest review of the boot. I also like how you weren’t afraid to put them to work while shoveling coal.
Thanks! I try not to let it affect the review. Ariat is not even close to my favorite brand, they know that and yet they still support my channel. I respect that a lot. My favorite part of these videos are the extended tests! That's how you learn the positives and negatives.
Might have to try a pair.
I like that boot and it's look. You cleaned it up pretty nice after the coal and mud.
This man is the best boot reviewer literally
Both are good boots but me I love the look and feel of the rambler it's simple, unique and super comfortable. The ropers look good and the stiff leather isn't a bad thing but at this point it's like what do you prefer Ford or Chevy
I've never been a big fan of Ariat, but their Heritage boots have consistently impressed me.
Agreed. I might have had low expectations but they still exceeded them
Yay I love the video, ride ‘em cowboy 💪🏽☮️😎
thanks man!!
Really enjoyed this video! I bought a pair of ropers because of your review. I was wondering if you could tell me what products you used to condition these though so I can keep my looking good. Thanks!
Did you figure some things out? Any knowledge you can share?
I just picked up this boot today. I was just looking for a simple around the house yard work boot. Perfect timing with this review. Glad I found it. The boot I picked up says it’s “distressed brown”. Does this mean I need to use a specific type of conditioner for it?
Yes they are awesome
These might become my first ever pair of cowboy boots
me too
You should get some heritage rough stock and show us how they are with work
I like the rambler and the roper boot so I might have to get both 😃
I just ordered a pair in black. Mainly because I don't have any black foot wear at the moment and wanted something simple.
These are going to be my first cowboy boot and I’m more worried about the jeans because I watched your videos about jeans but I’d like some people’s opinions about this boot and any jeans
Hello all! For someone who is a new Texas resident and doesn't do anything where I need a WORK BOOT, would you say this is still a good-looking boot to wear with jeans, a button-down, and a vest? Maybe going to the family ranch, out to dinner, or hanging out with friends. And I also love that these are the ones that Walt Longmire wears and ONE DAY I hope to go to Longmire Days! If these might be too casual/plain for wearing out, I am also looking at the Heritage Roughstock in Oiled Brown. Appreciate the help!
I would qualify these as more of a beater boot. You can certainly use these for the situations you have in mind but I also think there are better options depending on your budget. For more casual occasions, I prefer a leather outsole. It's a sharper look. Roughstock also has a rubber outsole but it will probably look better than the Ropers for casual wear in my opinion. I think Branch wears some kind of Roughstock in Longmire too
I like those ariat ropers, and honestly most of ariat boots. Probably because they are comfortable. On that note, what work boot with either steel or composite toe would you recommend for a good long work day?
I value your honest opinion, thank you and have a good night.
Hey Jeremiah, love all the videos! You’re always my go-to when I want something to watch. This channel brings me joy haha Just have a question and I wanna know if anyone else came across this with this boot. I wear a 9D, that seems to be my exact size because every single other boot of mine is that size and it’s perfect. I bought these exact Ariats (9D) used from eBay and I cannot get them on for the life of me. My foot cannot get past the shaft to make the turn. Just kind of confusing to me, especially since this doesn’t seem to be a problem that anyone else is having with this boot. You even mentioned in the video that you sized down a half size, now I’m even more confused. Just wanted to know what you think! Thanks
Hey Derek! Sorry to hear about your fitting troubles. It can be super frustrating. Do you know if you have a high instep? Sounds to me like that may be the case. Do you wear other brands of boots in 9D too? If so which ones?
@@JeremiahCraig Thanks for the response! And oh okay, interesting. That’s probably the case then. I have a lot of vintage Tony Lamas, Tacovas, and a pair of some old Durango’s. I wouldn’t change anything about the way they all fit. It’s just these Ariats are throwing me for a loop.
Hey love your videos. I have the exact same boots. We have a similar body type and was wondering what cut of denim jean you wear with your boots.
Loved your review. What boot would you recommend with a leather stacked heal and leather lined that is similar to that heritage roper? Thanks
For some reason I can't get into the roper style but I get why people like them. Also I'm thinking about the Tecovas square toe for my next boot cause to me it's a large snip toe. What do you think Jeremiah?
I have just bought a pair of these 2 days ago. My first ever Ariat boot and i love it. Just a shame that in New Zealand they are $349 NZD.
I bought a pair 10 years ago when there was some quality, my sons wore them as well, after years of leather dressing, the leather is still as hard and stiff, recently I went to get new ones at the Ariat store in Brisbane Australia, I thought the quality was lacking, so I passed, it just felt to fake, so I bought Boulet instead. In fact I have a pair of Boulet challengers that are so much more comfortable than Ariats plastic fantastics.
I recently got my first pair of Ariats, I got the hybrid rancher in drestressed brown. It is a square toe and I love it, it's a good boot. A buddy of mine got a pair last year and still just as comfortable as they were at first. And I was wondering how you feel about this boot??
Nice! I think this is a comfy and simple boot. One of my favorite Ariats
I am getting a new pair of boots next week
So happy to see you finding B widths more now in your ariats. Great axe work splitting those logs. 👌🏼 Awesome shirt!
Thanks Lucas! Gotta love the B width fit 👌
How is this comment from six days ago, I know about joining a channel but there’s no button that says join next to the subscribe button?
@@aidenmasdea5598 I was wondering the same, I got the notification like 7 minutes ago 😂
This video was available to members of the Boots & Ballads Vault since last week! They get to watch some videos a week ahead time. If you guys want early access too, you can get a keychain, mug, belt buckle or boot jack from my online store! jeremiahcraig.com/store
Can you make a stetson outlaw biker boot review? :o (I want to see your opinion)
Love your channel btw
I love mine.
I like these boots for work. I'm a state trooper and bought some black ones for a uniform boot. Very, very comfortable. Only other work boot that fits me as well is the RedWing Nailseat, but they don't come in black. I bought some of the Heritage in distressed brown because of the comfort for an everyday knock around boot too. I'm a simple guy and like the simple look and I don't know if you can beat them for the price for that, but I DO NOT like that they are made in CHINA.
I’ve worn Red Wing Nailseat for nearly a decade. Best boot out there in my opinion. Wish they made a black pair as well, so am looking at these Ariats. How does sizing compare between the two? Did you buy the same size in the Ariats? I wish they weren’t made in China either. And thank you for your service as a trooper!!
Can you review the Ariat Stockman boots please
What do you use to condition and snow proof your boots?
Do you recommend a brand for the snow/waterproofer you use?
I have cowboy boot that have a design that lift off of the leather. I was wondering how do I preserve the elegant design
I've had these boots for a couple years now. I can comfortably wear them all day , but what conditioner did you use in the video?
Bick 4 then finished off with Fiebing's Snow Proof Original Weatherproofing Paste
Those jeans look great with those Ropers man. What jeans are you wearing in this video?
Thanks! I'm wear a couple of different ones
These while shoveling coal - czcams.com/video/6mLjl7JUe_E/video.html
These while chopping up the tree - czcams.com/video/ByN7qjXk8t4/video.html
@@JeremiahCraig Awesome! Thanks for the fast reply Jeremiah! Love the channel!
Would this be a good boot to wear either in a suit or on a motorcycle because if so I'm getting two pairs
I just ordered these and used their size chart they fit pretty good but my big toe doesn't have much room and touches not the front of the boot but the top of my toe. Is that normal it kinda sucks
I wish I liked the look of these boots better, they just look like cheap disposable boots to me compared to the Rambler. But good presentation and the beard looks good bro!!
Nice boots
Well mine came with the other weird looking bottoms that almost look like the restaurant slip resistant shoes lol
I'd love a pair of these but, they're difficult to get in the UK shops and the sizing is an issue when buying online
I have the Ariat Sport Squared Toe I think it’s called. Are Ariat sizing all kinda standard or should I go to a store for this?
To whoever, what would be a good first time boot choice?
I bought a half size down from normal size , 10.5 instead of 11, in these and they are real tight in the middle and arch area. Will that part stretch enough to comfort? Uncomfortable right now and kinda hurt my feet. Ive heard Ariat runs a little big so I went that route but considering sending back. 11 seemed a little big. Is it better too have too tight than a little big?
These were my first boots lasted 7 years with me not knowing how to take care of them and now they have a hole in the side of them so I cut the shaft off and they are house shoes now edit I now have the gunslinger square toe and the circuit competitor round toe
Ariat boots with heels attached to the soles, most cobblers will not attempt to put new heel lifts on them, hell lifts wear down much faster than the soles do. I have a pair Ariat Legends that I am going to have to deal with this. At least on my Quick Draws, the heel lifts can be replaced.
I love boots. I like these boots for Word. i m from brazil, How do I buy this model of the video here in Brazil
When you going to do a review on some Anderson beans or Olathe?
As soon as I can! Hopefully next year
Where did you get the B width? I don’t see it on their website
455 rancher is the perfect every man’s chainsaw. Glad to see you wearing the safety glasses. Also, what a handsome pup at the end!!
Unfortunately, I won’t be able to use my phone or computer at the time of the livestream boot giveaway. Am I still able to win? I did fill out all the information required. Good luck with the livestream. Thanks
Oh its wierd not hearing the "im hear to connect you" in the intro
What type of jeans do you wear
What is the square toe equivalent to this?
