Customer Reviews SOREL Joan of Arctic™ Waterproof

Normally wear a size 10, but went with a 10.5 and couldn't be happier. Very warm and comfortable. Perfect for those Midwest winter activities. Plus, they look good too! Bought a year ago and they are holding up very well - very durable so far.

I normally wear a 9 and these fit perfect with a thick winter sock (they feel like a 1/2 size too big with thinner socks). They are warm and comfortable and I cannot imagine living in a snowy area without them!

Love my new boots

I ordered a half size up from my normal size. These boots are super warm and excellent quality. They will take some breaking in.

I normally wear a 10 medium, sometimes 10.5 in boots for insoles. The 10.5 was on sale so I ordered that. In reality I could have ordered a 10 if they had had one on sale but I do like the way my toes have wiggle room. These are actually wider in the foot than my 20 year-old Caribou's and kind of clunky-looking, which surprised me because the shaft is so cute. But they are 10.5's so I have to expect that. I'm wearing them in 2-3 feet of snow, cold temperatures and my feet are warm and dry. I also like that they are taller than my Caribou's for slogging through drifts. I would have put minimal arch support if available but I have high arches so I always wear orthotics. The side straps unsnap easily so they are useless for pulling on the boots, which makes no sense. Overall I am happy with them; they are Sorel boots and they last.

I purchased these boots to wear in the snow to keep my feet warm and dry. They serve their purpose very well. The boots are also comfy and very cute. I was between sizes and decided on the larger size so I could add arch inserts. The inserts make the boots even more comfortable. I look forward to wearing them a lot this winter and many more winters to come. I recommend these boots to my friends and family who will be walking in the snow.

Great but may be too wide for some people. I have a narrow foot but I’m still Going to keep them.

Great boot! I ordered a half size up but didn't need to. I returned for the right size.

After reading tons of reviews I normally wear a 9, I ordered a 9.5 and it fits perfectly. This is my 2nd pair of Sorels, replacing my trusty ones that are just old and tired. These babies got broke in during snowmageddon part two in Wisconsin and I couldn’t be happier. They are NOT hard to get off and on if you loosen the laces ???????

Unlike others, I had no problems getting these boots on my feet. You have to loosen the laces. They are a little bulky looking but then, they are true snow/winter boots. I found them true to size & very comfy. Plus nice & warm. I always wear a thick wool sock in the winter. I have another pair for 20+years that I use as my "work" boots. These are my "cute" boots if I go shopping, etc.

I first ordered a size 10 because of many reviewers stating they ordered a size up. I always get a size 9.5 or 10 in my hiking boots for plenty of room for thick socks. I ended up returning the size 10 for a 9.5 and they fit perfectly with plenty of room for thick winter socks. They are very comfortable. My heel doesn't slip at all. Because they have good support and are a little stiff because of it, driving takes a little bit to get used to, but after the first time driving it felt normal for me. I love them! My feet have stayed plenty warm and 100% dry.

These are so beautiful and well made but it does run a half size too big. A friend of mine has owned a pair for NINE YEARS and while they look well worn they still have plenty of wear left in them. Love these!!
