NIKI CHAPMAN, sponsors


Ariat

Ariat have been a fantastic sponsor to me over the year they have supplied me with top class top boot, short boots, dress boots, chapettes and numerous accessories. They produce in my opinion the best quality and best looking boots and chaps on the market, they are second to none for quality and comfort. My top boots are so comfortable that I could happily walk around in them all day. The boots are all durably and stand up to the tough Australian climate and after all of that they still look great.

I use in competition the Ariat Crowne Field Boot in black (with laces) these boots are very attractive and comfortable. They slid on and off with ease. At home and competition while training I use either the Ariat Cobalt Performer Pro (with laces) or the Ariat Cobalt Devon Pro (with zips) both these styles are attractive comfortable and durable. I have been fortunate to be able to try the Ariat Pro-Series Chap, the Ariat Classic Chap and the Ariat all round chap. I like all styles equally they all last for years even when used everyday and they remain attractive and comfortable throughout their life span and that is a long time. My Ariat short boots also double as dress boots I often wear them when I go out. Ariat boots are a versatile boot, they are fantastic work boots yet attractive enough to wear out at night.
