I love my ariats but I do not own the Fatbaby line because they just do not fit my feet properly (too clunky). My friends have them and they ride in them (western saddles). I ride english and need a narrower boot. I personally think they are more style than functionality, but that is just me. If the shoe works, were it. But if you find it sticking in the stirrups, be safe and wear a different boot for riding and leave the Fatbabies for going out.

ariat is a very good brand of boot!! good choice...but if you are riding....well i wouldnt choose fat babies...wanna know why? i have 2 pair...brown and black and then i have the baby bucks...samething but with rhinestones and taller on the leg...i used to high school rodeo with tennessee and i was wearing by baby bucks and i was goat tying in jackson tn the morning slack after my jr prom....got lazy and i didnt want to put on my lace ups and forgot my other pull ons so i wore the bucks....i get half way down the arena at a nice run and start to dismount and realize that my foot was stuck...not litle stirrups either...i was in a roping saddle . my horse was just doing her job and when i came off my foot hung and i got caught under her and she was trying her best not to step on me but landed a good blow with her hind left onto my only left.....never fear.... i still got the goat tied after i crawled to it, but had a very nice horse shoe print (nails and all) into my left thigh.....moral of the story....dont be lazy like me- wear proper boots!! fatbabies are for looks only.

Absolutely! I could do a commercial for them. I currently have 7 pair and wear them every day. You practically can't kill a pair even with lots of farm chores. I wear them for riding as well. I love, love, love them. You can find them cheap on ebay also.

That's all that I wear! They're so comfy, cute, and reasonably priced. I wear them when I ride, cleaning stalls, and out. That's the only brand I own!

I perfer the Ariats. They are made for riding and I like the insoles the best. They are very comfortable and come in cute styles too!

I love my fatbabies they are sooo very comfy seen as i have wide feet.
I do find that some times their wide toe makes them hard to fit in my stirrups. But yet again i have small feet and use small stirrups lol.
But other wise my fatbabies are very comfy and have lasted a long time. And plus they come in sooo many colors!
Mine are electric blue!
I love all arait boots they all work well and last long

I don't know about the fatbabie Ariats, but I have had a pair of lace-up roper Ariats for 10+ years and they have held up really well and have stayed comfortable since I've had them. I am really happy with their quality If this helps you any!

The Probaby's were made to ride in, unlike the Fatbabys. Personally I have both - the Fatbabys I use around the barn, and the Probaby's I actually ride in. Both are very comfortable.

I love how the Fat Babies look, but I can't wear Ariats. They tend to be on the narrow side an my foot is just the opposite. But they are just for fashion, don't attempt to ride in them.

Just don't EVER ride in the fat babies! You can get them cought in the stirrups & get drug.
Get the ariats.. they are so comfortable!
