To my knowledge, Ariat does not make riding "sneekers". Only riding boots.
And yes, I run in the boots. I have used ASICS sneekers which are made
for runners and cross training. However, the Ariat BOOTS are much better
than sneekers for the kind of trail running I do.

-Linda, this just totally confounds me! I run in Asics running
shoes, up to 10 miles on pavement. This weekend at the Grand
National, I finally tried on the Ariats. They seemed VERY hard
to me; the foam insert seemed very thin, and I could feel the hard
boot bottom through it. I can't conceive of running in them! Am
I missing something here? How could you run in something with that
significant a heel? Wouldn't that be bad for the calf muscles.
Elighten me, please!

run)
