I love these boots. They are like warm slippers. Comfy and soft. They don't offer much support in the arch, but my feet haven't felt fatigued. They kept my feet dry and warm in Minneapolis and Colorado this winter.

Bought this as a gift for my daughter who is moving to Lake Tahoe. She loved it. She said the lining inside is so soft and comfy and the size she took is one size bigger than her normal size 7.

Perfect combination between style and function. If it ever actually snows this winter, I know that my feet will be warm and comfortable.

These boots are great! They are warm, waterproof and yet look so good with the right cold weather outfits. I wear mine with leggings or tights, cute socks and a dress. I absolutely love them as well as having toasty toes!

I have been eying these for a while and I am so glad that I got them. Although there has hardly been a flake of snow dropped in the Northeast, I will be ready when the first big Nor'easter hits this season. Sorels are roomy, as they typically have an oversized toebox, and these are no different. I can wear them with cozy wool socks and it feels like I am walking in slippers. I am the type whose feet are always cold, but never in my Sorels, which is why this is my preferred brand of snow boots. They are waterproof, comfortable and keep my feet toasty. So they are perfect for sloshing through downtown or through the drifts outside the house when up north skiing. I love the ability to wear them with or without the furry insert, and they look super-cute with jeans tucked in. I bought my first pair of Sorel Caribous while working on the mountain at Beaver Creek (Colorado), and I still wear them 22 years later. They look exactly the same, and wear like nobody's business. They are my longest relationship to date!

High quality expected from the Sorel name and these did not disappoint. They are the rave from all the girls who saw them. Daughter loves them and living in the northeast, she needs them!

Love, love, love! These boots are super cute. They are amazingly warm and look/feel like they will last forever. I have coveted these for years; glad I took the plunge.

I love my boots! I've had them for nearly 2 months and they are nice and warm. It's been a mild winter so far but I can tell they are much better than my previous sheepskin boots. They keep my feet dry and warm, which is the main reason I forked out the money. Serious winter boots are not as flexible as sneakers but for these boots the leather top part does break in a little bit with wear, which makes walking more natural (not the rubber lower though. The lower part should fit right from day 1 or skip it!). I usually wear 7 1/2 - 8 and I bought 8s and they fit my Dr Scholls orthotic inserts in them. The white stripes on these have a brown cast to them that goes with the fur trim. Color in the picture is about right. I'm not a fan of brown (grey is better for me) but they are still cute and other people notice them all the time and complement. Bad. One small issue: I have small ankles and regular calves (5'4 120 lbs) and from the front the boots do look a little narrow in the ankles compared to calves especially with the large brown trim at the top. I think you can see what I'm saying in the video, as compared to Cate the Great which is taller and has less fur trim. I originally tried for Cate the Great Sorels as they have grey/black and in my opinion are more stylish and flattering but I received defective ones and returned them. I would have reordered Cate but they were out of stock. Good. These boots seem like they will last a long time. The metal loops for the shoe laces seem like they will handle more wear than the loops on Cate the great which seem to be made of something similar to laces themselves. (Cate lace loops may last forever though, what do I know? I had the Cates for a couple days). Overall these are great boots and I'm very happy and warm now that I have them.

Bought the Joan of Arctic boots for my daughter for Christmas. She absolutely loves them! Comfy and warm. Gets lots of compliments, especially on the fur top! Thanks Zappos!

I absolutely love these boots. It's hard to find something stylish and cool that keeps your feet as warm as these. I always get compliments on them. I wish I could wear them everywhere. The price is incredibly reasonable.

What can I say, this boot is true to size and keeps my feet nice and toasty. Tuck your pant leg in and cinch up the laces and I keep my pants dry and I still look great wearing them.

Perfect winter boot. Comfortable, warm, true to (boot) size which allows thick socks. Taffy color with accents makes it very stylish. Received a lot of compliments but I was only looking for a great winter boot with good bottom grip and warmth and found it.

I love these boots! I have wide feet and tried several different brands. These by far are the best. Walked all over Tahoe in the snow and rain. My feet were nice, dry, and warm. I also love the customer service Zappos provides. I will always purchase from here first!

I love these boots! I currently find myself in Beijing, and while it does not snow very much at all here, it gets very cold in the winter. These boots are perfect for keeping my feet warm and comfortable in the chill, and work with tights, skinny jeans and bootcut jeans (if you fold them over on themselves a bit). Probably the smartest buy that I hae made in a while in terms of keeping myself warm! I usually wear a 9½, and bought a 10 for these. That was just right, with a little more room for thicker socks.

These boots are amazing! Ordering a size 6 for someone who wears a 6 1/2 tennis shoe was perfect.

These boots are awesome! We bought these for our daughter for Xmas and she loves them. She wore them the other day and received many compliments. The boots fit true to size and there is ample calf room which isn't always the case. If you are contemplating buying these boots, just do it!

I bought these boots for my 30 something year old daughter for Christmas. She was thrilled with them, the fit, and the color and can't wait to wear them on her ski weekend. She wears a size 9 1/2 shoe but asked for a 10 in the boots.

I am not sure why everyone is saying these run large. I ordered one size down from my norm and they are too small. I will order my regular size and hope they fit. They are beautiful!

I love these boots! They will keep your feet warm and dry, and will easily go over jeans (not just leggings, like most boots - what's up with that?) while looking stylish. My one complaint is that the traction of the sole is designed for snow, which seems a little short-sighted to me - for us city dwellers, if there's snow, there's ice, and these boots do nothing for ice. These were my first pair of Sorels, and I'm very happy. They were true to size.

Beautiful boots; toasty warm and dry. They run a bit small if you are a big gal with big calves, but the better to stay warm; the shoe area is fine.

These are by far the best snow boots that you will ever get! They are snuggly warm and oh so cute with the little furry collar!
