Very comfortable and TTS. Works well with these cold and harsh midwest winters. Only reason not full on 5 stars. Thought the seam between the leather and lower boot would be seamless, but the leather is a bit more of an external seam. Does not leak but was expecting more of a flawless design.

I have been wearing North Face snow boots for years and recently borrowed a friend’s Sorel boots for a ski trip. I thought they were warm, stylish and comfortable, and decided to get my own own pair. I am soooo disappointed because I absolutely love the look of these boots but the instep is so low that I can’t get my foot in. I ordered a 6.5 which is the same size as my friend’s boots and the size I normally wear. I do have a high instep and sometimes boots are a little tight on top of my foot but I’ve never not even been able to get my foot in the boot. Odd.

I loved the look of these boots and was hoping they would withstand the cold and snow of Minnesota winters. Once I got them on, they felt a little snug. The BIG problem was it took nearly thirty minutes of tugging to get them on my feet. I nearly threw my back out getting these things on, and getting them off nearly killed me. They are in desperate need of a side zip or something. Too bad. Back to the land of zappo they go. :(

I work outside in the snow, my feet are warm all day! I get compliments on these boots. I put a layer of saddle sop, waterproof coating on them and it works like a charm.

It is a little difficult to put on. Even completely unlaced my heel has a hard time getting in. It is quite snug against the top of my foot. It seems to run a bit small. However once it is on your foot it is very comfortable and VERY warm and looks cute.

My 9-year old daughter got a pair of these for Christmas and I loved them so much that I couldn't resist getting the same pair!

I really want to love these boots. I was looking for a replacement for my Sorels that I have had for over 15 years. Unfortunately I had to completely unlace to get my foot in the boot and it was still really difficult. Ski boots are easier to get on. Looking for something else now.

Cute boots but clunky and heavy feeling to walk in and very hard to get my narrow ankle and foot into. Might be OK strictly for walking short distances in snow, but not an every day boot or for wearing for any length of time. I have the similar looking Sorel Tofino boots that fit much better, are lighter and can be worn all day comfortably, although I did get them in a size larger to fit heavy socks.
I'd also recommend:
Sorel Tofino

These were a replacement for an older pair of Joan of Arc boots and they are great. They changed the issue with the pull on straps and these are even more comfortable than the previous. Keep my feet very dry and warm.

Love the style of these boots! Super cute way to combat the snow. They are pretty warm and waterproof. I had to get a half size down, they feel a little clunky.

They're so warm, comfortable and stylish! I love the color (I got sea salt). I thought they'd be too white but they're truthfully perfect.

I am obsessed with these boots. I live in Michigan and needed them for days that we get a large amount of snow. They are sturdy and warm and fit like a glove. I read reviews saying they were too heavy to wear all day but I disagree. They are heavier than uggs or other lightweight snow boots but that is the whole point of them. They aren't too difficult to walk in or anything like that. I've worn them outside for 1-2 hours in about 20degree weather and they have kept me warm. I don't need them for much more than that time frame so I don't forsee running into any issues like other reviewers wearing them to sporting events and it not keeping them warm, I can't speak to that amount of time outside. In shoes I usually wear an 8.5 or 9, but in boots I normally wear a 9 so that is what I purchased and they fit great. They are on the snugger side but not uncomfortable, I like the way they fit. I hope this review helps if you are trying to decide if you want to purchase them!

I needed a new pair of boots and I could not be more pleased with my purchase. Customer service was excellent and my boots arrived in a timely manner. They are super cute but yet efficient and keep my feet warm regardless of what the temperature is. Not to mention they are super stylish and they are super practical. They actually make my feet look really cute. You can't go wrong with Sorel. The boot is well made and just enough fur at the top. Lining is so comfortable. My second pair and will tag along on my spring trip to Alaska.

Looking for lace-up snow boots as I can’t get pull-on boots on since my ankle surgery. Unfortunately was not able to get these on because they didn’t open up wide enough. Back they went... :(

These boots are about as stylish as cozy warm snow boots can get. The heel is a little roomy for me, but they are extremely comfortable overall.

I usually wear a size 8 and these boots are snug but wearable. I probably should have ordered an 8 1/2. I suspect that when the felt liner mats down a little, the boots will be perfect.
