These boots are absolutely gigantic. They not only run large in sizing, but are also just big and bulky. I ended up returning them due to sizing, but even if they had fit, I would not have kept them.

I have a pair of tall, quilted Keens that I’ve owned for years. They have gotten me through playing in the snow with my son and also look nice enough to wear to work with leggings and a sweater. Lately I had noticed that they were getting damp after wearing them outside. My feet were getting cold and as is pretty typical with Keens, the footbed starts to hurt after a while. So I was on a mission to find something new that was comfortable, more weather proof but still trendy. Not easy with snow boots. I’d been eyeing this style for a while. After reading endless reviews and seeing them go on sale, I decided to take the plunge. What a bummer. Although the boots ‘look good’ right out of the box, they were SO big and clunky. I felt like I had cinder blocks on my feet! I literally had a hard time walking. The foot bed was hard and they were very stiff overall. Sadly they are going back.

I purchased these to have a boot to wear in the cold weather in Minnesota and for the Iowa snows. These boots fit large and made my size 8.5 feet look like a mens 11. They were very warm, but felt heavy and too large to walk properly in. I ended up exchanging them for a 1964 PAC 2 which are the warmth I was looking for along with the size.

Nice looking warm winter boot, but I really think they are marked wrong. I normally wear a 10 and I originally purchased these for my daughter who is an 8.5. She couldn't wear them as they were so big. I wear them now instead and like I said, I am a size 10 and they feel a little big on me too. I would have exchanged them, but of course my daughter never told me until a year later that they were so big.

These boots were very heavy and bulky because of the rubber front. The tread was also very heavy duty. Sadly, I'm returning them.

The boots were comfortable however mine were too large and therefore had to be returned. Other than the fit too large, which I now know I have to go to a retail store to try on, they would have been perfect. The style of the caribou was super cute, stylish and very warm. Once I try on at a store I'm sure these boots will last a VERY long time.

I live in New York, and I needed something that was really good for the snow, but I have to say while these are such great boots and I'm sure would be amazing in areas where you get tons of snow all the time, they are just way too heavy and bulky. I would recommend for those who are looking to wear something that will keep them warm and still be able to function (I commute daily on the train, the bus, and walk a lot), stay away from these. I just ordered the Winter Fancy boots so hopefully those will be great for day to day and snow as well :) In terms of fit, I'm usually an 8.5-9, I sized down to an 8 and it fit perfectly.

I bought these boots mainly because of how they looked and the potential to be a great shoe for the snow. However, they did get returned for two reasons. Although the size in length was true, the boot is wider then anticipated. I did put on a thick sock, but still felt there was no width support when walking. The other problem was the weight of the boot. There is a lot of rubber and leather which made them heavy and again less controllable. So between the width and weight I felt this boot was too clunky. Looked good on your foot though!

I really wanted to love these; however, I’m looking for what sorel used to have. These are just incredibly bulky and heavy duty (great if you’re using them for work) I just really wanted something that was cute comfortable and functional. These are NOT cute lol.

I loved these boots the minute I seen them- I ordered the shale gray- I was very disappointed when they arrived- I was so excited tried on immediately and these boots are HUGE and HEAVY. I am normally a 9-10 depending on the style of the shoe and i ordered a 9 in these and they are just way to big and bulky. I literally feel like a man. Is there a way of returning somehow-I did order online and i love them i just need a smaller size :(

These are heavy and clunky. The bulk made them hard to walk around. If you want them as a snow boot, they’re probably ok. But if you need more functionality for running errands, then not good.

This boot was VERY warm. I loved it for that reason. It was a little too klunky for me though. I wanted to be able to run around outside with my son and walk to work easily. I felt that I could not do this with ease in these boots. They ran slightly big also.

These ran huge on me. They also felt like they would be slippery on icy sidewalks. These might be cute for apres ski, but not really practical for daily use. I returned them.

These boots are only suitable for some one with extra wide feet, big chubby ankles and extremely thick calves.

The boot seems nice but they were too large and I did not like the loose insert. Also, they were hard to get on even though they were too big. I have subsequently returned the boots.

These boots are BIG and BULKY, in my case I believe them to be true to size, but, they are just built to be big for heavy snow. My foot looks like feels like its on wheels or something. They are good for someone who will be directly in the snow often, I need them to walk to and from work (NYC) and these are just over the top. Not a feminine fit. I think I am going for the snow angel.

This boot runs really large, both wide and in length. It doesn't fit well at the front by the lacing.

I got these boots in black for a trip to canada. They look wonderful and definitely keep your feet warm and dry. However they are on the heavy side and for some reason or another it threw off my stride In my right side and after a couple day it was almost impossible for me to walk in them from the pain in my groin area.

I normally wear a size 9...across the board. I'm rarely a different size in any shoe. So, I ordered a size 9 in these and they are enormous. They feel at least a size and a half larger. The boots are warm and waterproof which is exactly what I was looking for in this boot. They are well made and super durable.
