Why we love these boots

The new Wexford Waterproof Boot from Ariat checks all the boxes for style, practicality, and performance. Here’s why these boots have become a fast favorite:

Waterproof construction

Crafted with DRYShield™ waterproof and breathable technology, these boots ensure your feet stay dry, no matter the weather. Rainy days and muddy barn visits are no match for the Wexford. The all-weather design doesn’t just repel water–it keeps your feet comfortable with its breathable construction, so you can wear them anytime, anywhere.

Durable, slip-resistant soles

The Wexford features non-marking Duratread™ soles, designed for exceptional durability and traction. Whether you’re navigating muddy fields, gravel roads, or slick barn floors, these soles provide a reliable grip to keep you steady. Plus, they resist wear and tear, so your boots look and perform like new even with everyday use.

Ergonomic support

With Ariat’s ATS® technology, these boots deliver superior support and cushioning. The lightweight, ergonomic design reduces foot fatigue, making them ideal for long days on your feet. The Wexford is a style that’s made to be lived in, providing stability and comfort so you can move with confidence.

Traditional twin gore style

The Wexford features classic Chelsea boot styling with thoughtful details, like elastic twin gore panels and elegant plaid lining. The flexible side panels make slipping them on and off effortless, while the lining adds a stylish flair. This timeless design pairs beautifully with almost any casual outfit, making the Wexford a versatile addition to your wardrobe.

How to care for your Ariat Wexford boots

Like your favorite riding boots, the Ariat Wexford Waterproof boots are crafted from high-quality leather that requires proper care to keep them looking and performing their best. Whether you’ve worn them on a hike, to the barn on a rainy day, or it’s just time for a good clean, follow these steps to maintain a like-new shine:

  1. Clean off dirt and mud. Use a soft brush or damp cloth to gently remove any dirt or mud from the boots. Avoid using tack soap, which can damage the leather.
  2. Condition the leather. Once the boots are clean and dry, apply a leather conditioner to restore moisture and keep the leather supple. Conditioning also helps prevent cracks to prolong the life of your boots.
  3. Polish and buff. Apply a boot polish that matches the leather color with a cloth. Then, buff with a brush or clean cloth for a smooth, polished finish.
  4. Protect from water and stains. Finish by applying a water and stain protectant designed for leather footwear. This extra layer of protection helps shield your boots from harsh weather and everyday wear.
