Love them! Was looking for an acceptable winter sailing boot since most are not in my size. I usually wear a 6.5 and ordered a 7 for room for thick socks. With ski socks I still feel a nice cushion of air warming up around me feet. Sized very well. Super thick liner. Accommodating for larger calves. Fairly bulky - will show under your pants. No real support, but with the half size larger than my normal I think I still have room for an insole support. They make my feet look 3 sizes larger, but my toes are very toasty while I'm typing this.

These are awesome. I am a 6 1/2 so I ordered size 6, thinking they would be big. I need a size 7.

I bought these boots to shovel my deck, and go snowshoeing in Mammoth Lakes, CA. We had 558 inches of snow last year and these boots are so warm and comfortable it is like putting my feet in a toaster! I love them! The high top with the cinch cord keeps the snow out of my boots and my feet warm! If you need a serious warm boot for serious snow ice and cold, this is the boot for you!

These boots are awesome. Built for lots of snow, not for walking around town. My feet are ALWAYS cold and these are toasty. The felt lining is very thick. Highly recommend for cold, outside wear in the snow.

You need these boots in your life. These are FAR less clunky than shows in the photos. And I really don't know how people could think these are too heavy. Maybe I have strong legs but they felt just great to me! These are the perfect snow boots - they even fit over skinny jeans, which I know is a silly concern if you're out shoveling snow, but say you come home and find you have to shovel a parking space for yourself, and you have the skinny jeans on, well you'll just appreciate these that much more. Not quite a half size larger but that was my only option to choose. If you wear thick socks they'd be perfect. Even if you didn't, you could lace them a bit tighter. Most awesome, amazing snow boots of my dreams. Yes they are snow boots but hello, anyone who has to wear these won't be walking down a runway any time soon. And honestly I think they look awesome and people even tell me "They're cute!" Buy. These. Boots.

Love the boots, in temperatures down to and below zero, going out to the barn in the morning, my feet are warm. It is unfortunate that they don’t come in l/2 sizes. Having to go one size up means either two pair of socks, or one pair with a sock liner or a fleece inner sole to take up some room. Even at that, they are very comfortable. Your whole calf stays warm. I would recommend them to anyone who works outdoors in really cold weather. The other plus is they are not heavy in spite of their bulk, so it’s not tiresome walking.

Great boots! Well made, very lightweight, and a perfect fit; just what was needed to stay toasty warm & dry shoveling heavy wet snow. Nice treads for trekking about. Very comfortable, well worth the price.

These boots rock. I wasn\'t 100% sure at first, after a few days in freezing MN weather I\'m in love! I am a true 6.5, I wasn\'t sure to go with 6 or 7, I went with 6 and they fit perfect, the inside boot really molds to a wonderful fit. Hope this helps. MN winters are way more enjoyable with warm boots, snowpants and a groovy hat!

It was very easy to navigate Zappos. They had the product that I wanted, the price was good and free shipping. The boots fit perfectly. I had another pair just like them, but after twenty years they developed a leak. I was happy to find them on Zappos.

These are awesome warm boots. I actually had to order a size smaller than my normal size, which never happens, but once I got the smaller size it was a great fit. They are very comfortable for walking, not as bulky as I had anticipated. I love the extra height for deep snow and also the closure at the top so that snow does not get in. And my favorite quality, they don't pull my socks off when I walk! I love them!

Sorel is all we wear up North. Everyone wears them. They are the best you can buy and will protect you in weather that is -60 with the wind chill. If you want warmth this is the boot to get. I love the white!!! Noelle

Ordered these boots for my daughter\'s birthday. She lives in Boston and spends a lot of time in outdoor winter sports in Maine and New Hampshire. She loves them.

I wouldn\'t recommend any other brand of winter snow boot than Sorel. Sorry.

I got these boots especially because I was planning a winter trip to Minnesota and needed something warm, comfortable, versatile and stable. These are all that and more. Fit: I'm a wide 8-8.5; these fit pretty well. I got the 8 as I know from previous experience with a different Sorel boot that they run a little large. The 8 fits well, maybe still a little loose. Definitely comfortable in the width. There is plenty of room for thick socks. Warmth: Boots are super warm! Shoveled snow for several hours with zero discomfort. The pac lining is very comfortable, and slips in and out easily. You can even wear the liners as indoor slippers, good for if you're visiting. Appearance: I get compliments all the time on the white boots; very cute looking, quite fun. Boots don't look as big and bulky as you might think. So far they've been easy enough to keep clean. Overall, I like the boots, would buy again. Good traction on the bottoms, comfortable to wear, easy to pull on and take off. They might feel a little bulky on, but worth it for the warmth.

I was shocked at how fast the shipping was. It's less than 24 hours! I wear a size 8.5 and got a 9. There is still room to put heavy socks on. They are very warm. I did not think they were too heavy. They seem to be a good quality boot so far.

I have had a pair of these boots for 10 years and I love them. I have worn them in deep snow and very cold weather. My feet did not get cold.

I had never had snow boots before, so they feel heavy to me. They also are extremely warm! I am yet to use them in the snow though. They are really comfy, too. Considering that they are snow boots ,they are even a bit cute. I purchased the white ones, and those look nice. I suppose they are more useful than anything else.

My husband has had a pair of these boots for years and swore by them so I thought I would give them a try. They\'re not too stylish for women but they sure are functional for any kind of deep snow activity. I love that they cover up your pants so when you\'re shoveling snow, your pant legs stay nice and dry. They also keep my feet warm and are a comfortable fit (even though I\'m a size 8.5 and purchased a 9 since they don\'t come in half sizes).

I have these boots and absolutely love them. This is the 3rd winter I've been wearing them and they are still holding up in the snow and cold. I ordered a 1/2 size up. I normally I am a size 7.5 and I got an 8, which gives plenty of room for thick socks. Other boots may be a little cuter but if you need to brave the cold then these boots are ideal. I highly recommend them.

Great for heavy-duty romping in the snow. I bought a pair of these when I was in high school. That was 10 years ago, and I still use them today when I go up north to visit my parents. They were definitely worth the money. They are high-quality and perfect for romping around my parents woods in the northern winter snow. They have lasted a long time, even though I haven't used them as much the past few years as I did when I still lived in the north, they are at my parents home just waiting to be pulled on whenever I visit, and I know they'll keep my feet warm and dry no matter the abuse I put them through.

Fastest boot delivery in the midwest -
I ordered online late afternoon on Saturday after not finding my size at the shoe store and they arrived on MONDAY! Love them, would like to buy them for friends. Wish they made them in 1/2 sizes, but I added an ugg (spelling) sheepskin insole and they are the best!

Really happy with the boots!
I live near the wilderness in Idaho, and I have tried many boots, but none that I tried can offer the warmth, comfort, and durability of this pair.
I did feel that they run a little larger, although great with a really thick sock.
The boots look clumpy, but they are really comfortable and warm.

Sorel Snowlion -
I wear a size 8.5, but the Snowlion only comes in whole sizes so I got the 9 and it was WAY too big. I should have gone with the 8 but there weren't any left when I tried to exchange. It is a wonderful boot - cute, warm, and comfortable - just make sure if you are a half- size to go DOWN and not UP.

Best Boot Ever!!!
This is the best boot ever!!!! In Chicago it can get down to -35 and my toes have stayed nice and toasty warm in these temps. And, I found I can even drive in these boots.

Nice boot, just not what I was looking for -
I was looking for a boot that would be good for rain or snow; this boot looks like it would be great for the snow, but a little overkill for rainy days. I liked the way they looked and they fit great, except when I pulled the liner out they were obviously too big. I would recommend this boot for someone that wanted a heavy duty snow boot. I wear a 7 and ordered an 8 and they fit great with the liner in.
