Customer Reviews SOREL 1964 Premium™ CVS

Love these boots! They run large, I normally wear a 10, in these 9.5. They are super warm, even standing/running in ankle deep snow with my dogs. Nice wide toe bed for thick socks, which I almost always wear with them. Some will find them large and clunky; they are snow boots that are rated down to 25 degrees...they are really cute! I live in Colorado, so these boots can be my everyday boots for weeks. I love them. I need a pair of Cate the Great's!

These were to large. The also hit in a weird spot on my shin making it tiring to walk.

Way too bulky

Gorgeous vintage boot and look with contrast laces, but the boot is super weighted and really heavy. I loved the look of the boot and it look great on, but putting it on took at least ten minutes a foot. I have a wider foot, but because there is a very thick wool 'sock' insert, it makes putting the boot on (and taking it off) nearly impossible. It take a lot of jamming and pulling to insert your foot into the laced boot, unfortunately - and that's what made me return the item. The boots are extremely warm, but the sheer heaviness of the boot itself and the challenges in getting it on and off was a total downside.

Kind of big and clunky. I like the look but even with the inner lining, they ended up fitting poorly. Should have exchanged sizes...

A bit big and clunky, good for areas with heavy snow. Not so much for places with very little or infrequent snowfall.

I'm in northern NM for school right now and definitely need a waterproof boot, so I was disappointed these didn't fit. I usually wear a 10.5 or 11 in shoes, but I ordered a 10.5 in these and they were way too big and wide. I had to lace them tight, basically bringing the two sides together at the top.They're cute and I like the color (got the red and brown) but I have to return them. I'm not sure I like the idea of the removable insert or not, either.

These shoes are HUGE. They were difficult for me to walk around in and looked ridiculous. I returned them. If you live in very heavy snow or were buying these to snow shoe in, they might work well as long as you don't mind how they look. I wanted them as rain boots, and would not have been able to walk around in them.

I just returned from Alaska where it was -30° most of the time I was there. Also, one of those days, I was outside all day, wearing these boots. Overall: The picture here is deceiving. The height of the boot barely goes to mid-calf. By the picture, it looks like it goes at least higher than that. These are a good boot if you're going to be inside and outside. If you're outside for any length past a few hours, you will need toe warmers. These will not keep your feet warm for a long period. These are more for activities like shoveling, errands and/or light snow activity. Comfort: They're okay. The left boot kept digging into the back of my achilles to the point where I have a bruise. They're very stiff. It's also a very tight fit. Wear thin socks, hence, probably another reason my feet didn't stay warm. Style: I like the style a lot. Not too ornate.

Very bulky- I thought with the clunky-ness of these boots that at least my feet would be toasty in them but my feet were actually cold a lot in them- I live in Maine and need my boots to preform better!

I have a pair of Baffin Snogoose boots that are incredibly warm and have a snow collar around the shin. They are infinitely warm and great for being out in the severely cold weather. However, they are very clunky and kind of heavy. I was looking for more of an everyday boot for the winter days that aren't arctic. The Sorel 1964 Premium CVS seemed like a great option. Pros: comfortable and easy walking; they also feel warm with the substantial felt/wool liner. They lace up nice and tight around the ankles. Cons: they are wider than I expected-- not something I'd want to walk around in for a long period of them. My first thought was: they look like a duck bill on my foot. There's also no noticeable arch support--which isn't something I go out of my way to look for in shoes, but was sorely missed here. I usually wear a 9 but have a long second toe, and like to wear thick socks with boots-- so I ordered a 9.5. That was a good call because the length feels just fine for a winter boot. The jury is still out on whether I'll keep these.

Read other reviews of this boot saying to go up in size. I went up a half size and it was WAY too big. Does not run small. I liked the look of it in the box, but not on.

I expected the fit to be a bit loose. But what I didn’t expect was to have next to no mobility when wearing them. They are incredibly stiff, including the “soft lining”. So much so that they made it difficult to drive when wearing them, causing a more dangerous situation in already dangerous weather conditions. Sorry, not worth it. Returned.

I had to return these. They were extremely uncomfortable. They are just flat boots with a chunk of thick, loose felt wrapped around the inside which make them stiff and awkward.

These run big by a half size to full size. SORELs run very narrow and I thought these boots would be the exception since the toe box looks larger. Wrong - somehow they're still narrow in the toe box. There isn't any contour to the heel, so heel slip happened with every step. The liner isn't attached to the boot and slips out when removing. Wish these worked because they're so cute, but returned them.
