I love the style of these shoes. They are very comfortable. I am not sure if I got a bad pair or if this is a design flaw but the mesh has pulled away from the shoes making it pretty much unsuable. It happened just after I got them and has got to a point they are not wearable.

I want to love these cause they are so cute. In reality they are a bit narrow and stiff. I originally was going to use use them for work shoes. I'm a nurse and on my feet for 12+ hours and these shoes were killing my toes by the end of my shift. The stiffness in the shoes was obvious and I could feel clacking of both shoe pads when I walked. Like I said before, I'm going to continue wearing them in hopes they loosen up more but now I'm back to square one looking for work shoes.

I have this exact shoe in a different color. I ordered the same size. It was 1 inch shorter than my first pair. It was also wider.

Very narrow! I have fairly narrow feet. The show hits me wrong on one foot. Not the best case scenario but they are adorable.

I returned these. They came in an off white. Picture is deceiving and the white has a yellow tint which makes it look dirty. They also did not fit well. On the bigger side

This is my 5th pair of Sorels I have purchased in the past year and a half. This pair is my least favorite. Although they look sporty and comfortable, they have little to no arch support and the material is very thin. The soles are durable but the fabric upper is not. Your foot sits "higher" out of the top of the shoe giving less support if you were wearing them to run or exercise? You'd likely roll your ankle or heal right out. Won't be guying this one again.

I wore them all day thinking I'd break them in but that was not the case. Just too narrow. I love the style and the look but had to return them.

Bought these because I liked the look and my Sorel boots have been very comfortable for a boot, but these kinetic impact shoes were really uncomfortable to wear. I think the combination of no support under the arch and the front and back soles offering very little flexibility was a bad fit for my feet

I bought these because I liked the look, and my other Sorel footwear has always been so comfortable, but these were a miss for me. The sole of this shoe is not very flexible, and with all the flexibility in the arch (no support), it felt like wearing a brick.

I am not happy with these shoes. I want to like them! But I find them hard to put on and take off- I don't feel like the laces allow me to tie them as snug as I would like and so my foot slips. Also I have to wear these no show socks that are not as comfortable as regular athletic socks because otherwise my socks show and it doesn't look right.

I love this shoes other than the opening where your foot slides in is very narrow. So its harder to get on PLUS its very tight around that part making me not be able to wear them.

I confess, I bought these because I think they look cool. And...they do. Do NOT mistake them for comfortable or functional sneakers, however. Sole is thick, stiff, and un-cushioned, with little to no arch support. Opening is tight around the ankle, and hard to wear in. I love these shoes, and I also dread walking in them. My much-cheaper "cloud" sneakers from another brand were less expensive, less good looking, and much more delightful to wear.

I was obsessed with these when I first got them. Sorel shoes are my favorite - especially their boots! These shoes are extremely comfortable, but the mesh rips so easily. Mine started messing up after a month or two. :(

Very disappointed. The soles are slick and the string around the arch that looks cute doesn't feel cute. They would be ok for running errands but not outdoor use.

The shoe has a funky style that i liked for changing up some outfits. However I had to return because the pet of the shoes that is the tongue has zero give. It was very tight and very uncomfortable.

They are super cute. Size up. Personally I don't find these comfortable to wear working out, use them just for regular day to day. The arch on one shoe doesn't feel sturdy.

I wanted to love these. They are so adorable. But after wearing them a few times and working out in them, I still can’t love them. The first time I worked out I felt like my feet were bleeding! Then after wearing to work once my arch was so tight and sore.

Please make shoes in wide!!! These run extremely narrow and have no give unlike your typical sneaker. I could barely get these on in my normal size because they are so narrow.

comfortable foot bed but the leather strap across toes is narrow and digs into toes. Will return for that reason
