October 30, 2024 •Connor Merritt
Those of us who love the outdoors know that it isn’t just a hobby, it’s a lifestyle. And for outdoor enthusiasts on-the-go the proper footwear can make-or-break and outing. Ariat makes footwear for every job, whether you’re hunting, hiking, horseback riding, or trekking city streets. With a wide selection of Ariat Men’s Boots to choose from, we’ve rounded up our top picks for any occasion.
It makes sense that we’d start with the boot fit for one of the most popular outdoor activities with iSportsman. The Catalyst Defiant Gore-Tex Hunting Boot from Ariat Men’s Boots has you covered for any hunting season. We’ve discussed before the importance of waterproof and temperature-controlled footwear, and with the Catalyst Defiant you get that thanks to Cobalt VX technology, premium waterproof leather construction, and the waterproof Gore-Tex membrane. Beyond this, the Catalyst Defiant hunting boots by Ariat also offer field flexibility and movement, with a comfort-ensuring PU midsole and TPU heel cradle. With an MSRP of $319.95 you can buy them here.
Unfortunately, you can’t always be on the hunt. And for our outdoor enthusiasts who also have a rough-and-tumble 9-5 the Groundbreaker Waterproof steel toe work boot by Ariat is the perfect fit. These functional and stylish boots meet the ASTM F2413 standards for safety toe footwear, electrical hazard resistant footwear, and slip resistance footwear. Despite being tough-as-nails, the Groundbreaker also provides support and stability with 4LR technology and an all-day cushioning insole. Better yet, they are also waterproof. With an MSRP of $169.95 you can buy the Groundbreaker boot from Ariat here.
For when you’re not in the field or on the job, Ariat also offers the Hybrid VentTEK western boot for hitting the town. The Hybrid VentTEK western boot is now even cooler — literally — with Ariat’s new addition of VentTEK technology to boost airflow making these western boots perfect for year-round wear.
Go out with style and comfort with all-day cushioning insoles, and Duratread tech soles that allow for full foot flexibility. Constructed of full-grain leather with vented mesh underlays, the Hybrid VentTEK Western Boot can rank as your favorite pair of shoes year-after-year with Ariat’s Resole, Restore, Rewear program that brings well-worn boots back to their former glory. With an MSRP of $199.95 you can get your pair of VentTEK western boots here.
