Our take on the Ariat Men's Groundbreaker Wide Square Soft Toe Western Boot

The Ariat Groundbreaker is a 10-inch western work boot in leather with a wide square soft toe, built for people who stand and walk on hard floors all day. It carries ASTM electrical hazard and slip-resistance ratings, a shock-absorbing EVA midsole and an oil- and slip-resistant Duratread outsole. The removable All Day Cushioning insole and 4LR support system make it more comfortable than plain work boots, and owners rate it well for all-day wear. Against stiffer, heavier western work boots it trades some structure for lighter weight and easier break-in.

Questions and answers

Is this boot electrical hazard rated?
Yes. It meets ASTM F2413 for electrical hazard resistant footwear, along with ASTM F3445 for slip resistance.
Does it have a steel toe?
No. This is the soft toe version. Ariat also makes a steel toe Groundbreaker if you need impact protection.
How does the wide square toe fit?
The square toe and wide width give more room across the forefoot than a pointed western toe. Try your usual boot size first.
Can the insole be replaced?
Yes. The All Day Cushioning insole is removable, so you can swap in your own orthotic.
Can the sole be replaced?
The Goodyear welt construction allows a cobbler to resole the boot rather than replace it.
What is the heel height?
It has a 1-inch heel, the standard western work boot height.
