Customer Reviews The North Face Shellista III Mid

I walk 20-30km daily in Toronto w dogs. Just bought these before Xmas and so disappointed that barely wear them now. Yes they are water proof and perform well in that regard in the snow but the toe pocket freezes to the point can't feel my toes. Yesterday while cleared my car of snow and chatted to a neighbour for 5mins my toes froze to the point where couldn't feel my right foot as that boot is tighter than left. Would never recommend these and regret not getting the chilkat boot which has a wider toe box. These are so narrow you can't put heavier socks on either. Have tried all my outdoor socks w these and still an ice box toe box. I wear all TNF gear while outdoors all day w dogs but these have been a complete fail. Don't waste your money.

First of all, order a full size up. I am usually an 8 1/2 but read reviews and ordered a 9 1/2. I'm so thankful I did! It fits perfectly and room for thick wool socks. Wore in 7 deg weather and snow in Breckenridge. Walked for hours and my feet never got cold or hurt. Soooo comfy and warm.

I like how the design and functionality both are great in this product. You usually just get either and I am happy to have purchased it.

I honestly adore these! I was going to get {WOMEN'S SHELLISTA II MID BOOTS} but decided not to because of reviews stating that the boots didn't keep their feet warm. So I got these instead since they're just as cute and they're SHELLISTA III (an improved version of SHELLISTA II). I'm normally a 7.5 wide in most shoes but got an 8.5 in these and they fit wonderfully. Obviously I'm going to have to break them in because they're snug but not uncomfortably snug. The insulation in them already had my feet toasty just from trying them on and test walking around in them in my apartment. I'd like to mention I have pretty wide thick calves- 17.5 (at the widest point) to be exact and these still lace up with no gaps between the tongue and sides of the boot. Yay! I also walk to work so these boots will be awesome for that. I'm really impressed and excited to actually wear these in the upcoming months with my Vermont Darn Tough Socks!

I am a mail carrier so I purchase this boots thinking it'll be great for winter but it's not warm nor is it waterproof. My feet was soaking during light rain. I was so disappointed.

These boots are really cute and comfortable, but my toes FROZE! Tried them twice with different pairs of smartwool socks, but they just didn't work for me. And, I'm super disappointed in TNF return policy for footwear. They won't take them back if they've been worn. Seriously?! With snow boots especially, you really have to try them out in the conditions to know if they're good or not. For a brand that is supposed to be about quality and craftmanship, I would think that they would have a better return policy and stand by their footwear. Definitely don't spend your money on these.

Love these brown boots for winter months on the Navajo Nation. I got size 5.5 (my usual shoes size) and they fit me like gloves. I wear these for weekend hiking to different national parks and monuments around the Four Corners area and absolutely love them!

These boots are definitely an excellent value! I am confident they will protect me from the winter cold in Chicago and, look good when I'm wearing them!

They are so comfy to wear all day long. Love the color is just like in the picture. Definitely buy them again, for me is always so hard shoes that fits I got size 5

True to size and compostable.

I've been eyeing these shoes for over a year now and I finally caved! I'm glad I did because they are Cute, warm, and durable! Exactly what I wanted.

Bought a pair in size 6 (my usual shoe size) for a snowshoeing trip and they were great. I was initially concerned about how my toes felt mildly compressed due to the rubber construct of the toe area, especially when worn with thick wool socks since I have wide feet. I tried a size 6.5 for comparison and the heel felt too loose so I kept the size 6 with hesitation. However, when I wore them and went snowshoeing, it performed well! The toe area was not an issue, my toes got only mildly cold, and overall felt comfortable throughout the hike. I suspect it's not roomy enough for me to fit toe warmers, but for 30 degrees Tahoe weather the boots were warm enough for me. I was also unsure whether the mid-calf coverage would be too much stiffness for hiking up hills, but it was not bothersome at all. The calves did get a little too warm at times which I resolved by layering less in the legs the next day.

Great boots very comfortable! Definitely keep your feet warm during those winter months!

Bought them for my girlfriend for Christmas. She absolutely loves them. "Best boots ever" she says

Warm, fits just write

North Face you never fail me Fit to perfection, love everything about this Wear a size 61/2 with thick socks and it PuurFect

Comfortable and warm boots. I normally wear a size 7 and ordered a 7.5 based on other reviews so I could wear with thick socks. They fit perfectly and should be good for snowy/icy Maine winters. They look great in person.

These boots are great! They do run small, I'm normally a 6.5 in tennis shoes so ordered up after reviewing the reviews. I ordered a 7.5 and they fit perfect! They're cute and super warm! I can wear them out shopping or in the snow! Such

Good quality and super comfortable.

I'm 5,3 wear 6 1/2 and order the exact size And it's perfect !!!" Thank you North Face

Got them for my wife for her birthday and she thinks they're great! Haven't tested them a ton yet, but they worked well for camping last weekend! It was around 40 degrees and the location was on the muddy side. Kept her feet warm (not that 40 degrees is terribly cold) and they were easy to clean off.
