After seeing another woman rocking these boots at the Airport one day, I knew I had to get myself a pair. First time wearing them, they do get tight on my feet. After wearing and walking around them, the leather/rubber material will eventually stretch out for a much more comfortable fit. I wear these with thinner wool socks and still manage to keep my feet warm in these New England Winters. These boots look great with leggings and I cannot help but watch myself rock these day in and day out.

These are like wearing moon boots. I know the extra height is to keep the feet above the freezing ground, but they're too awkward to walk around in all day.

These boots kept my feet warm and dry dog while sledding and Northern Lights chasing in Iceland in late November. That pretty much says it all. With Sorel boots, I size up from my usual 8 to 8.5. Especially since I wore multiple layers of socks to stave off the sub-Arctic cold. They were comfortable right out of the box. I like the style, although they are serious boots for snowy conditions.

All of the Sorels fit too tightly over the front of my arch - the point where the arch starts to rise up from the toes. Cute boot but hurt after just a minute or so.

I’ve had these boots since 2019 and wore them during below freezing temperatures in snow and on treacherous icey sidewalks. They’re warm, well-built and I love the look. WI has terrible winters, and other snow boots never made it past a couple of months of freezing temps and snow. These boots aren’t hiking boots.

Was really disappointed in the bottom of the shoe. It is really squishy and feels like there is no support. Kinda dangerous if on ice.

I was so excited to wear these. Ordered them a month ago and waited for first snow to bust them out only to discover that Zappos sent me two of the left boot only and the two are different heights on the bottom with different shoelaces. I don’t know how that wasn’t caught before they shipped and now they don’t have my size anymore. The boot looked super cute and comfy … I’m just really disappointed in their quality control.

These boots are the perfect snow trudging, gorilla grip anti-slip, winter boots. They run a little small, I'm usually a 9, 9.5, I ordered a 10 and they're perfect. I cant get a thicker sock on with them YET, but I believe they just need to be worn in a little. (Not that I even need thicker socks, I could go barefoot and still have warm tootsies with these babies) It just feels like stiff, quality material that will losen after use rather than a sizing issue. However, if you have wider feet I don't believe these would be the boots for you. They're relatively snug yo my feet, which works for me, but were my feet any wider I'm not sure these would be the boots for me. Overall VERY warm, VERY comforable, SUPER cute, SUPER durable, weatherproof boots. I'm thoroughly satisfied & confident going into this winter season with these boots on my feet.

In love with my boots! They are extremely comfortable. I did size one whole size up. Normally, I’m a 10 and I bought and 11 just because I do wear thick socks for winter.

I will start off by saying.. these boots kept my feet extremely warm in the mountains usually my feet are frozen even with thick socks, but not these boots. I do recommend wiping off the white parts on the side to keep keep looking fresh to not let anything stain them. I have used clorox wipes and they keep them very white and clean. Definitely recommend these.

Super cute & fit my “high volume” feet well. Which not all Sorel boots do. True to Sorel size - which means size up a half size. I do not find them heavy or clunky. Love them!

I have never written a product review but these are the best quality winter boots ever. Warm, waterproof and cute. The footbed is so supportive. I'm sad at the end of the day when I have to take them off bc they're so comfortable. I live in Vermont and have tested them in powder snow and puffy snow and past both tests. True to size.

I couldn't tell if these were super cute or super weird online, but I ordered them anyway to find out the truth. It turns out that these are my favorite Sorels I have ever purchased... and I have a collection! They are comfy, warm, and just enough fashion forward to get noticed and complimented when I wear them. The platform is high in these boots, not good or bad, just something I hadn't noticed when I bought them. In most shoes I wear a 9, but I sized up to 9.5 in this style and they fit perfectly.

I like very much these boots, they are fashionable yet practical. You can walk in good amount of snow without getting wet or cold. They are extremely warm and keep you high off the ground. They are true to the size, I’m 5.5M and that’s literally my size both in normal shoes and boots. Since they are winter boots, they are a bit heavy and slightly stiff but again very comfortable. I highly recommend them.

My girl loves them. These are really the first quality boots she's ever owned. I've known Sorel for decades for quality functional boots

I usually wear a 9 in a sneaker or boot, but the 9 felt slightly tight on the top of my right foot, so I got a 9.5. They are a bit big, but I can wear a thick sock, which I like. They are warm and comfortable and seem pretty good on snow. We haven't had a ton of snow lately, so I haven't tried them a lot in snow. I have gone on long walks and never had cold feet.

Really love the new design. I owned a pair of JOAs several years ago, but found them too heavy to walk far in them, and living in New York, that's a must. I love the grippy sole, and the waterproof design of the boot gives me confidence when I have to step in slushy puddles crossing the street. They're really cute too--I've received lots of compliments. I initially ordered my usual size 9, but sized down to 8.5. I have a fairly wide footI wouldn't say these are roomy but they feel like they fit well. With the snow sticking around this year, I'm so happy I bought these.

So comfy and warm without being too heavy. They are water proof and haven't gotten any salt stains from shoveling tons of snow. They are also so cute!

The shoes are great overall BUT you have to go up a size if you want to wear socks...most importantly the bottom is hard and not the most comfortable for extended walking and definitely not a hiking boot.

Super warm and dry and very stylish. My only complaint is I've only worn them a handful of times and there's already a small tear in the leather on the toe so they may not be that durable
