Setup and Initial Use

Upon receiving your new ARIAT boots, it is recommended to allow for a break-in period. Leather boots naturally conform to your foot over time, providing a custom fit.

Breaking In Your Boots:

  • Wear your boots for short periods initially, gradually increasing wear time.
  • Wear appropriate socks to prevent rubbing and blisters during the break-in phase.
  • Consider using a leather conditioner to soften the leather, which can aid in the break-in process.
