Ariat Booties

Booties in this style are ankle-height western boots, usually with a block heel, a pull-on shaft or side zip, and a pointed or snip toe.

• Check the shaft height and calf opening, because an ankle shaft that is too snug is hard to pull on over thick socks.
• Compare toe shape and heel height, since a snip toe with a low block heel walks very differently from a tall stacked heel.
• Look at the outsole material: leather soles are traditional but slicker than a rubber lug sole on wet pavement.

Each seller sets its own sizing, so use the insole length measurement on the listing rather than assuming your usual boot size.
