Ariat Boot vs Double H boot for horse back riding? whats your opinion?

Their are two boots that I would like. I need new riding boots. They are both slip on's both close to the same color but I was wondering what would be the better option as far as quality and durability for being around horses and wearing them all the time? Double H or Ariat?

I've had Double H and they last forever!!!! except for one pair where the pin went through the heel, I've never had ariat so i'm hesitant but it is cheaper. Also on the ariat boot the sole doesnt really have any traction, but the double H has a lot would this be a problem? I mostly trail ride, some barrel racing, ranch work ect. Whats your opinion on these two pairs of boots?

    Ariats are now Made in CHINA.

    I am serious. and disgusted. I found out a bit ago and will not buy from them again.

    the roper boots feel cheap and don't last long anymore.

    DOUBLE H is MADE IN THE USA!!

    Yes, a little more expensive, but oh man, I just bought a pair of their boots and they are SO COMFORTABLE!!!!! Soft soft leather, broken in feel, awesome support.

    I bought em for riding.

    Definitely Double H.

    I have worn out several pairs of Ariat paddock boots over the years, and also several pairs of pull on boots from Ariat. I find for the relatively inexpensive price they are comfortable with no break in time required and last very well if polished and cleaned. I'm about to buy another pair!

    I have Ariat boots, and they are fantastic! They are extremely durable and comfortable! I use them for barn chores and riding (I ride English). I have never had Double H boots, but I would definitely recommend Ariat. Mine never wore out (just my feet grew too big haha). They are still in excellent condition, basically the same as when I got them. My rider instructor also says they are the best brand out there, if that helps your dilemma. The sizing is just a little strange, though. At first they ran small for their size, but then their whole sizing system changed. So anyway, I say that Ariat boots are excellent so you should have nothing to worry about if you buy these.

    I have always used ariat and absolutely love them! they provide comfort all day and are long lasting.i wear them around the barn to do chores and i ride in them everyday. then i clean them and they are good as new! if you feel comfortable with the Double H the get those but i think you will love the Ariats also!

    I don't think Ariat is a good brand. Everything Ariat I've ever owned has fallen apart or boots have broken in all wrong.
