They are very comfortable. At the beginning, it felt strange to lace up on the size. I have thick calves and not so straight legs, but these boots are flattering and mask the true shape. Since we've had only one sub zero temp day and absolutely no snow this season, I don't know how they would do in a severe weather condition. When I walked about a mile on the frigid day, they kept my feet toasty and supported them very well.

These boots are definitely smaller than marked. I am a true 9 and they felt at least half a size too small with the liner. No point using them without the liner! Also note that the circumference around the top is a wide 18". This was far too much space for someone with slim calves and I laced them as tight as they would go. The padding is exceptional, and I am sure that they would do a capital job at keeping one's feet warm. However, they were unwearable given the sizing issues. I returned them and ended up with similar but less heavy boots from Kamik.

This boot is increbily comfortable and warm. It's definitely made for winter's worse. Initially thought it looked bulky and difficult to drive in but I was pleasantly surprised that the opposite was true. I've even worn them shopping! An excellent value for the money.

Great boots. They are super stylish and cozy. I wore them tubing and they kept my feet warm and dry the whole time. Since they lace up the side I could see where if you have really skinny calves you may not be able to get them tight enough around your leg. I have average calves and they fit just right. I would definitely buy Baffin again. Excited to finally have boots that look great and keep my feet happy.

Warm boot in cute package. Also tried Baffin Chloe, but that was more bulky and not as cute. This kept my toes warm in deep snow. A boot this warm has to be bulky and heavy, but this one is cuter than most. I wear a 9 and bought this in a 9; any shorter and I would have had to size up.

Trying these on in July was torture, so I know they will be awesome in our cold and snowy winter months.(yes it snows in AZ, quite generously at 7,000 feet)I ordered a size larger, 8 based on other users' suggestions, but preferred the snugger fit of the 7.

I wear an 8.5 and ordered a 9. These are pull on boots. Since the laces are just decorative, it was really hard to get my foot in with the liner. I have trouble getting cowboy boots on though - so take it with a grain of salt. These seemed like they'd be great in really cold areas, but I don't need the power that these lined boots give.

I respect the Baffin brand and quality, so ordered this boot as a substantial winter boot. It seemed well-made. I was looking for something quite warm but not as heavy as the old Sorel 1964s that I had years ago. My husband has a pair of Baffins that he raves about. His feet are very wide. I definitely go for function and quality over style. I wear 7 1/2 and sometimes 8 in shoes and like a lot of room in the toe box. I ordered an 8 in these, but they were too short (toes touching the end) and too narrow. I exchanged for a 9, and the length was okay, but still too narrow. I had on a mid-weight sock, and wore the boots in the house for about an hour each time. I know that Baffin's liners are meant to be snug and form to the foot over time. What's interesting about the narrowness in these boots, and in their Snowgoose style that I tried on at a store, is that the narrowness of this Baffin toe style (I see it on several of their boots: a hard plastic toe area instead of rubber over the whole front of the boot), is that it feels wide enough in the ball of the foot, but too narrow in the toes. As if my toes were piled on top of each other. The arch area was also uncomfortable: narrow and rubbing toward the front of my arch. The whole boot felt like it was narrow almost to the point of tipsy. Another note: this is a boot for moderate cold, not serious cold and not for being outdoors for hours at a time in the cold. However, if you have a narrow foot and want a cute functional boot for fairly cold weather, this would be a good choice. I've exchanged this boot for a boot that folks report runs wider and has a colder temp rating, and will rate them when I get to use them!

Caveat: I returned these. Based on the reviews posted here, I ordered a full size up (I'm an 8, and ordered a 9). I probably could have lived with the roomy size, but they are really ugly. The photos don't convey how high the foot is. My husband took one look at these and said I looked like Frankenstein, and indeed I did. The height from the floor to the top of the arch is easily 6 inches. They would probably be great for subzero weather. But if it's that cold out, I'm not sure you need all the style elements.
