Review: Fits great comfortable - Took a week to break in but now are perfect Review: Top part has hot spots that rub - I've had a few ariat boots in the past and i have always liked them, but these ones just didn't fit right and actually made me bleed through my socks. After a couple days of work i returned them. Definitely not worth the money ## Features - DELIVERS STABILITY & SUPPORT: Catalyst VX Work stands for performance, stability, and protection.
