Sorel Joan of Arctic® SKU #7333234(View on Zappos.com Classic)

Good for winter - All the reviews said it was larger than marked; but I ordered my normal size. 1) I have large feet. 2) I am pregnant and wasn't sure if my feet had expanded. When I got the shoes, I was very excited and it snowed the next day. Soon, I was agitated because I got blisters and it was painful to walk in the shoes. They did not FEEL larger than marked but measuring my foot against the sole clearly illustrated that yes. The larger width is okay because usually in winter you are wearing thick socks. Eventually the blisters subsided and the shoes stopped hurting. Great for winter, but not if you are looking for something dainty and feminine as well. Get plenty o' compliments on them.

Not all they should be - OK yes, these are cute boots as far as you could call a snow mobile boot cute. I have a large foot and these are huge...I could probably get them on with 3 pairs of socks. I recently moved to the cold and wanted something very warm as I am not used to the cold. Well, when you are moving they are warm but if you stop on wet or cold your feet will get cold (and that was no where near the -40 degrees!!) the top part of the shaft is comfortable but where it connects to the bottom rubber part digs in...perhaps because they are huge...I would have sent these back but I had already worn them before I decided they are not worth the cash...also if you plan on any hills with them- forget it they are clumsy.

Sorel Winter Boot review - These boots are very warm, and I think stylish. I wear a large size for a women and I find these to actually be a little large. Other than that I am very pleased with my purchase and look forward to other women shoe size 11 purchases.

Definitely warm and waterproof - I wore these out on a 6 mile hike through five inches of snow and ice in January in the Pennsylvania Mountains. I even walked through springs with moving water, mud, and slush that came up past the rubber part of the boot. Amazingly, my feet were warm and completely dry the entire time. I bought these boots for days like this and hikes like this but they really performed better than I expected. And even after all the mud and snow, they still look new (I have them in black). I should mention that because I have been wearing Uggs, my feet did feel pretty heavy by the end of the hike and these boots were bulky enough to make me feel clunky and clumsy at times but I haven't noticed these problems during shorter walks or while chasing my dogs around in the snow. These boots are comfortable in the ankle and easier to drive in than in my North Face Chillkats. A very warm and seriously waterproof boot. I’ve lived in places with serious winters my whole life and never owned boots that performed like this. I am normally a size 5 so I ordered a 5 in these and since they run a little big, I shoved a size 5 Ugg insole in them. Works great.

Lovely boot. Very warm, comfy, fashionable. The ankle area is a bit loose otherwise it fits well and true to size.

Unfortunate blisters - Unfortunately the boot rubs your heel and is pretty uncomfortable. Hopefully, they will work in over time.

Great boots! I love this boot! They were hard to get on the very first time, but after I broke them in they fit perfectly (I got a 1/2 size smaller than I normally wear). They are warm and they always keep my dry. They are a bit bulky, but still cute. :)

Cute boot! Love the looks of this sorel boot, the fur cuff is too cute. Fits like the old traditional sorel, meaning no arch support and a little sloppy. Going to try putting in a foot bed to take up some of the excess room. Overall great boot.

Great for keeping feet warm and dry, not good traction - I wanted a tall waterproof boot winter that was cute yet durable. These seem like they will last a long time. I like how chunky they are and have the fake fur trim. Several people have complimented me on these boots. Please note- they run BIG. I have slightly wide feet and always wear a 8 or 8 1/2. I ordered the 8 and they were way too big, even with thick socks. I exchanged them for a 7 and they still have enough room for thick socks. The only thing I don't like is the traction. They are not good on ice, but since they are so warm and cozy, I am just going to get some strap-on ice grippers for when it's really bad. They have been great in the slush and muck and are very warm. They are a little hard to pull off, but I've gotten used to it. BTW, these boots were delivered 36 hours after ordering!

Looks great - keep feet warm and dry - but uncomfortable! These shoes are definitely NOT comfortable. Maybe I have a hard time breaking in new shoes - but this boot totally scraped the skin on my heels and ankles. I have huge scabs still healing from the bloody wounds. I think this is because the shoe seems to have this inner, removable layer that is rigid. It feels almost like a brace. That brace feels really tight around the ankles. And yet, there is a lot of space around the toes. I have medium width feet and there is way too much space in front and sides. So, the fit wasn't snug and comfortable, the way Uggs or sneakers would be. I did wear them when NYC had its recent snow storm, and they are handy in snow. However, I wore them with bandages.
