I am keeping these because they fit my needs better and are very comfortable (I like how narrow they are); however, the fur fake liner is hideous! I ordered them because I wanted fur lined. Other than the nasty fur and fake tabs to make it look like it has a real liner, they are perfect. I also ordered the Joan of Arc which has a real liner and the fur in them is heavenly, but the boot is a little too heavy for all-day wear.

Tried the Joan of Arctic in 10 (just a hair too short) and 11 (gigantic!). Both sizes had huge heel beds, were very wide, made me feel like I was wearing cement shoes (I guess they could have been a good workout tool), and were difficult to walk it. The Tofino is much narrower and has a fit more like a big shoe. I sized up to 10.5 for thick Smartwool socks. My pretty red Tofinos are very comfortable, warm (though I haven't tested them in snow yet), and much, much easier to walk in. Since these are light I think they might be a better city snow boot than a boot one would wear in deep snow drifts in the country. Only wish they were suede (like the Joan of Arctic) and not canvas, but I guess that's why I can actually lift my feet in these!

Love these boots. I almost bought a cheaper version. I'm so glad I didn't. I bought a half size larger. They are comfortable and with a thick pair of socks fit perfect.

These boots are great! Look amazing and feel amazing. Super comfortable. They are true to size and made well, I see myself with these boots for a few years now.

I am a true 7 1/2 M width, so I ordered my size knowing that the process of shipping back and receiving the new pair would be a breeze. And in fact, I had to order the 8 1/2 a full size larger. I had tried on the original with no socks and knew right then that they were going to be tight and they felt narrow. However, after getting a full size larger they are the right fit as well as the width. Cannot wait for the snow and slush, because I know I will be safe from the cold and wet. I'm in NYC. Plus they are just hot and fashionable, I have never seen such cutie patootie boots. Zappos staff and the way the company is run is quite simply top-notch.

I usually wear an 11 but it felt like a 10-10 1/2. The 12 was perfect and does not look like a huge boat on my foot!

I bought these boots as a gift and actually bought two pairs in case the recipient's regular size would be too small. Other reviews warned that they could run small and sure enough they did. The ease of doing business with Zappos made me a believer!

These are not only gorgeous boots; they're comfortable, warm and keep feet dry. I will need a half size bigger but even so, there's lots of toe room. These are my first pair of snow boots, just moved to the NW! I wore them to go find our Christmas tree in the forest and hiked in 18 inches of snow, my feet were dry and warm.

Zappos rules! And so do these boots I bought them for my step daughter, who moved to New York from Florida, and has raved about them - how warm and comfortable her feet have been. I have been wearing Sorel for over 30 years. They are awesome!

I just received my Chili Pepper Red Boots, Love them! I was going to order the black boots but after seeing the reviews about the chili pepper/red color I could not resist. I did order a half size larger boot based on other reviews written, but wish I would not have. A little too big. But I decided to live with it and wear larger socks. My sisters saw my red boots and are jealous - that is a good thing. Let the snowfall begin - I am ready.

These boots were a gift, so I can't comment on the quality. I can highly commend the folks at Zappos, however, for their fast, efficient, and over-the-top service! I've dealt with them before, and their service is unbelievable.

I usually wear a 7.5 or 8. These fit fine in a 7.5 with my usual dress socks; however, I am returning them for an 8 so that I can wear thicker socks. I love the color (chili pepper/black) and the style. I'd also order the Joan of Arctic, but that style is rather "clunky" in my opinion. I think I'll feel much more comfortable sludging through snow and rain in this style.

I have the worst circulation and these boots have kept my toes perfectly toasty despite the below freezing temperatures the last few days.
They are actually a narrower fit on the feet (compared to other Sorels I tried on in a store) which works for me and my small feet/ankles. I found them true to size in terms of shoe size. They aren't totally broken in yet so are a bit sore on my heels but nothing that isn't to be expected from boots.
Part of me wishes they didn't have fur as they would go under jeans easier but overall I love them!

Cute boot, fits great. The white banding makes it a little preppy and sneakerish. Ordered the yellow and it is very much a ski chalet boot. Both are cute. It seems like it will be warm enough with a pair of thick socks.

I wear an 11 wide, but based on other reviews I ordered up a size. Glad that I did! The 12s worked great (are still a tad narrow, but work fine with thin socks. I bought these for running around town in the winter. I was afraid they would be too bulky like my old school Sorels, but they aren't! They are surprisingly light and nimble. I'm, 6'0 tall and they actually aren't really tall boots, They are a terrific height, not too short or tall. They'll be warm enough for running around and typical winter activities, but not too hot. So excited for these boots!
I'd also recommend:

Great boots! They are not yellow as in the photo: they are khaki colored and nicely neutral.Ordered a half-size up and that worked well. Looking forward to snow!

This boot is really comfortable and cute! I think it runs true to size, I usually wear an 8-8.5 and ordered the 8.5. Fits perfectly with a wool sock. I have wider feet and these fit perfectly.

Love them! I read the reviews of the Joan of Arctics and although I loved the look of them, I was not in love with the way people described them as being heavy and bulky. I'm so happy Sorel came out with these! They look fantastic on (I went with the black ones)! They are really light to walk around in (although I've only been able to test them out around my house since it's only September) and seem very comfy. Don't pass them up as I m sure they will be sold out soon! Oh, and the colors seem to be a bit off on Zappos web site for the Chili Pepper and Dark Olive. On the Sorel web site I think they are more accurately displayed and not so bright!

First of all, these are so super cute! I got the Trail/Autumn Bronze color and they are a really rich colored red, just perfect. That being said, I really wanted to slip these on and feel cozy warmth. That did not happen. They run very narrow and literally felt like they were cutting off circulation in my foot. Thankfully I read through all the reviews and ordered a half size up (I wear a 10, I bought 10.5), because the length was perfect. The first time I wore them they lasted 15 minutes on my foot and I took them off due to discomfort. But I didn't give up, I put them on again the next day and wore them around the house for hours and I do believe they gave a smidge. I'm still debating on keeping them, because their cuteness makes it hard to give them up. You must wear a warm, thick sock because these do not offer much in soft, comfort (I'm typically an Ugg wearer and Uggs these are not). I cannot stress enough the need to order a half size up. I have never had to to go bigger in any shoe, but these you do.

Love these boots, but one of the pull tabs broke. Luckily, they were still under warranty and Zappos handled all the details for me which was nice. Hopefully it was just a fluke...

Great boot. Although I got a half size larger and they still feel tight in the width of the boot. Time will tell if they will stretch some.

I really like these Sorels both for their functionality and style. I've worn them hiking through the snow, around town, and walking to work. All times my feet have stayed dry and relatively warm. With thin trouser socks for work, they aren't that warm, but with some wool socks, they're great. They are a little stiff, but I still find them comfortable enough to wear all day Saturday, getting my hair done, shopping, and out to eat. They are easy to slip on and off, as well. Size: I usually wear an 8 in regular shoes, and an 8.5 in running shoes. I went with the 8.5, and that was the best choice.
