How it Works: Ariat Work Boots Technology

In this video, Jake Rivas, Ariat Vice President, Footwear Design & Development, explores the features behind Ariat Men's WorkHog EH Steel Toe Wellington Work Boots – the top Ariat work boots with western-inspired styling and technology Ariat has exclusively advanced.

The Workhog Work Boots are ASTM rated, have steel toes, and have their patented U-Turn® Entry system that makes getting in and out of your boots simple. Boots featuring ATS® Max technology come in a variety of safety toe options – Steel Toe, Composite Toe and Carbon Toe, as well as non-safety toe/soft toe.

How Does Ariat’s U-Turn® Entry System Work?

One of the many ways Ariat makes their cowboy and work boots more comfortable is with their U-Turn® Entry System. Boots with Ariat’s U-Turn® Entry System have a flexible elastic panel hidden in the back of the shaft that provides a bit of “give” to allow your feet past the turn. Thanks to U-Turn® Entry technology, feet of all sizes can wear pull-on boots comfortably.
