vivid colors-hand stitching-craftsmanship






































Outdoor Retailer has lots of footwear brands---but ARIAT®-an equestrian "lifestyle/athletic" brand of footwear, apparel and accessories has always been on our must see list...easily captivated by the extraordinary workmanship of its western boots...and as we used to giddy-up on horses...a lot-we certainly knew the reverence the label commands in the English riding world.

Background---Two smart management consultants take a business plan's inspiration- and make it their own-combining a love of of all things equestrian-with their savvy vocational skills...launching ARIAT® in 1993...from the Left Coast, no less.





















What's inside the durable footwear-counts as much as the good looks of the uppers...with outsoles that grip in all kinds of weather and conditions, uppers that withstand the elements and muck...solid Goodyear Welt construction,  a patented Advanced Torque Stability™ (ATS)--- a supportive, cushioning system that promotes good posture, gel insoles that help with shock absorption, and a forked composite shanks that promote stability waaayyy more than steel shanks.



laser cut uppers in a wing shaped pattern, sharped square shaped D toe

HIGHLIGHTS:

A colorful and stylish partnership with Lorinda Graham-Van Newkirk and Amy Moorhouse of Gypsy Soule that fuses a bit of rock and roll with Ariat's premium leathers and know-how... with Spring 2012 available now...serving up three boot and two boat shoe profiles...with an X toe, leather lining, wrapped in bold colors/prints...
