ARIAT womens Dixon Western Boot

The media could not be loaded. I love these boots! I really wanted to keep them as they are quite the impressive boot! I think the pair I got somehow the sizing was off. Both boots said 10 on them, but my right foot felt perfect and my left foot felt like I was squeezing it into a size 8. I tried stretching it in every way I could think of but nothing worked and my foot would be throbbing after stuffing it in there after only a minute or 2. After reaching out to the company for any advice they might have to stretch the smaller one as it DID say it was a size 10, they advised I return them which I did. BUT, I did order another pair and I'm praying for better results this time! They will be here this week, so I'm hoping both boots are truly a 10 and the last pair was just an error in manufacturing because I really do love them! I will update once I receive the new pair! ***EDIT/UPDATE: Changing my review to 5 stars since I received my new boots and am much happier with the fit! Both boots fit fine on the new replacement pair. I've waited to update the review as I wanted to actually wear them a few times 1st to see how the felt. They are quite comfortable even after all day wear and walking around quite a bit. I wore them for an all day into the night event where I was in the city walking around going from place to place and standing on my feet for long periods of time and at the end of the night my feet still felt fine! I've seen several reviews saying the boots looked used and worn, based on the distressed look and bottoms of the boot. In my opinion other reviews showing the boot bottoms as worn are just the way the boot is made and the leather of the boot with discolorations or scratched looking areas is because it is a distressed boot which is supposed to look that way and is advertised as such. I've attached a video to show comparison of my boots that have actually been worn and what the bottoms look like after and also so you can see up close what the discolorations and imperfections of this distressed boot look like which isn't always easy to see in the advertising photos. You can clearly see in my video what the bottoms of an actual worn pair of boots will or should look like, compared to some reviews showing a smooth clean boot bottom that is suspected to have been worn. I did not feel like the bottoms were super slippery the first time I wore them as other reviewers have found. Maybe if you were inside on carpet or slippery floors it might feel that way, but if you're wearing them out and about they definitely don't feel slippery. I also had a great personal experience with the seller who was super responsive when I had an issue with the first pair and I did not have to pay for shipping to return the original pair as they sent me a return label that covered shipping. I'm not sure why others had an issue with this, unless there are multiple sellers on here. This is a beautiful, well made, comfortable boot and I've received many compliments on them! The leather smells amazing right out of the box and I personally love the distressed look. I'm happy the size issue was resolved with the new pair and now I can say I definitely recommend! Just be aware if you purchase them that they WILL look distressed like it says in the description, and that includes the heels and bottoms of the boots, so if that isn't a look you particularly care for these boots more than likely wouldn't be for you.

True to size. I wear an 8-8.5 in most shoes. Boots are a 39 or 8.5. but so many aren't true to size so it fluctuates. These are in deed an 8.5 I can wear nice size socks. They are adorable and good quality. I read the reviews and had my fingers crossed that the 8.5 would fit because they were out of 9s in the pink. And they are absolutely perfect. The heal height is perfect I didn't feel like I'm wearing heels. But they make me stand a little straighter. I did not experience any of the issues that others mentioned about the back digging in. Like any new shoe they need to be broken in so brace yourself. I have a feeling these will be my new daily shoes. Read more

I’ve never seen a more beautiful boot than the Ariat Dixon. Trying to find the right size is most important first and can be tricky. Turned out I was not a 6.5 so my first attempt at these boots was too tight. Go by Ariat’s size guide first, then try a pair on in at least 2-3 sizes at your local western boot store or through Try Before You By. (You may even want to try on two pairs of shoes that are the same size, as the first 6.5 I tried on was probably a mis-marked 7, hence why I went and ordered a 6.5 originally.) I’ve seen a lot of people size up by 1/2 size, which can depend on how wide your foot is and how thick a sock (if any) you plan to wear. My feet have always been a smidge more narrow and I don’t plan to wear thick socks with these, so my recommended size from Ariat was spot on (I did not size up). Apply a leather conditioner such as Bick 4 and it will soften the leather making them even more comfortable, and the leather quality more long-lasting. (Bick 4 will also not darken leather, yay! It did not change the color of this pair or the other two colors of Dixons I own.) The Bright Lights color is a beautiful off-white that will hide dirt much better than the Blanco. Just note it may feel a little more snug than, say, the Weathered Brown or other base color, probably because these seem to have a little extra fabric on the inside. But still comfortable and softening up really nicely after applying leather conditioner. This is my third pair of Dixons if that says anything! I also own Weathered Brown and Agate Green and can wear all three pairs comfortably with thin athletic socks. A gorgeous trio of colors to mix and match. Last, the seller was wonderful to work with - thank you again! Read more

These are very cute boots, but to tight in the toe area. I usually buy size 8, so got an 8. An 8 1/2 would've slipped to much in the heel. The color was darker than pictured & the shaft is up to high on the ankle. Uncomfortable even if broken in. My other Ariat boots are 8's, fit great & are comfortable. Very disappointed with Ariat quality on this boot! These are going back. Read more

I stand on my feet all day long at work. Comfortable footwear is essential! And I do like to sachet about looking like I stepped right out of Yellowstone. Kinda a cowgirl at heart. I have several pairs of Ariat boots. The only brand I consider wearing. In my opinion they are a great pair of boots for the money. And comfortable. This pair I have wanted for a long time just couldn’t decide if they would be more weekend date night or worthy of standing on my feet all day at work kind of thing. After reading the reviews shown here I ordered. I must say these do not disappoint. Received them last night. It was almost like Christmas. They are exactly as shown in the photos except cuter. Wore them to work today. Not only did they fit as expected. Were comfortable. But I received a lot of compliments! The material feels like leather. Very smooth. Well made. They slipped right on! No need to shove your foot in and hold your breath wishing there was a zipper! I’m so excited these are finally mine! Read more

Good fit, comfortable, attractive. Read more

Looks really cool. The insole is not super comfortable; I need to wear socks to avoid my feet being rubbed against the shoes. Read more
