I'm excited to wear these boots outside tomorrow with our couple inches of snow and frigid temperatures - they just arrived! In terms of fit, I was thinking they would be too small but I find them to be true to size...not running small at all. I'm not wearing huge socks inside them, though, so that could be the reason for the previous reviewers' comments. The boots are adorable and really light...just hope they are warm!

The fit was true to size and they are so cute and comfy. I can't wait for it to snow!

Very comfortable! The opening should be wider as its a little difficult to put the shoe on. Very warm and my feet stay dry.

I ordered these for my daughter who is usually a size 9. Her Uggs are size 9. They felt too snug and narrow for her so we are exchanging for a size 10. They are very attractive and easy to pull on. She said they feel warm. They are very cozy feeling inside. We will see how they fair in the snow this weekend!

I had to return these shoes because I order a size 9 the first time and they did not fit. They are so cute and your feet stay warm no matter the weather.

My daughter loved these right out of the box. They are lightweight, cute, and look to be good for our Western PA winters. But surprisingly, they were too small. She tried them on with thin socks and they were extremely snug. So they are going back, to be exchanged for a larger size.

Lightweight & really warm & waterproof. They do the job of boots that are much heavier to wear.

These are adorable boots. They don't have much arch support at all, but are super warm. In the end, I decided to return them. The shoe fit great on my smaller foot, but oddly enough, felt huge on my larger foot. The shoes appeared to be the same size, but something was obviously off. I was really disappointed as they are very cute and warm!

This is the second pair of North Face boots I've owned and I love these more than the first. I originally bought North Face boots when I was pregnant with my second child and could not stand the idea of clunky boots to lug around. North Face boots are so light (especially compared to other popular boots (Ugg). I love the short height on these and they are super warm. My only complaint is the foot bed is not very soft. I usually wear a 7.5, but my feet are wide so I ordered an 8. I put Dr. Scholls gel inserts in and now they are even more comfortable. Love the reasonable price too. Great in the early winter that has already arrived!

I ordered these boots half a size larger than what I wear to provide for heavy winter socks. I probably should have ordered a full size larger (to accommodate the thicker socks). I do like these boots. They match my coat. There is not a lot of padding inside but they are comfortable. Minimal arch support. I needed something to wear in the snow (leave my Uggs inside) and these will be fine for that.

Love this boot - so incredibly comfortable, like I'm wearing house slippers! After reading the reviews about not being waterproof enough, I'm still keeping mine to wear when I am in town running errands and don't want a stuff bulky boot to drive in. This will be a great boot for driving! The fur trim is a nice element, too.

These are warm, snow-resistant, and extraordinarily comfortable boots. They provide good grip. They are about as stylish as any winter boot, and they look especially good with a down coat. I have received many compliments on them (they look as toasty warm as they are). I love them. Still, the downside is that they are very difficult to put on -- I struggle some to get my feet in the boot.

Unfortunately, these have to go back. They are too wide in the heel (and I do not have narrow heels), and also were much shorter than I anticipated. They are very much ankle boots.

Not very comfortable. Needs more support. Feels like you are walking in a flat. Color is off white.

This boot is tiny. I got the similar boot from 2 years ago, and I was a size 7 with room to spare. In this shoe, which is much shorter, and much tighter around the ankle, it is tight at a size 7, and my normal shoe size is 6! Also, it is a much more fitted shape than previously, so be sure and order up a size.

I liked the looks of these, and ordered an 8. The foot seems to fit fine, but if I wear socks (hello, these are winter boots!) I have great trouble getting the boot to slip on. The neck might as well be a size 5 or 6! These are not even high leg boots. I am not pleased with the difficulty putting these on!

Pros: Off white is a pretty color, easy to get on and off even for my wide foot and high arch. True to size, lightweight and easy to walk in. Cons: Elastic tightener at top of boot sticks out and is distracting when cinched up. Felt more like a slipper than a snow boot.

Loved the height of this boot, soft material but no arch support! Flat, flat, flat. Could have been a flip flop. Gotta go back. Don't want knee pain this winter.

These boots are amazing, I wish they fit. The are too big in the heel. If I wore thick socks it might be ok but the toebox was already fitting, so then it would be too tight. They are amazingly light however.

Really cute boots. Lightweight and comfortable. Waiting to see how well they keep me warm an dry in the snow. However, they are EXTREMELY difficult to get on. I ordered a size up based on the other reviews but it didn't really help. The shoe is so narrow at the heel it was a workout just to get them on. I'm hoping they stretch so it gets easier otherwise, I may have to return them.

Lightweight, comfortable boots. After adding insoles, they stay on my narrow feet without slipping. I just wish they came in a choice of widths - my heels still slip a little, but at least these boots stay on my feet.
Be warned that the black boots actually have a bright red lining, even though the picture shows matching black. I decided to keep them thinking you can't see the lining - but today I looked down and realized that looking down, you do see the bright red lining - which clashes with my clothes.
I've already worn them for a week. They're comfortable and do (pretty much) stay on my feet. I just wish the lining were black as shown in the pictures.

Normally I wear an 8 in boots (shoe size 7), but they were out so I went up to a 9, figuring that I could wear thick socks. I am glad that I did. If I had ordered an 8 I would not have been able to get these on! I get when people say they are hard to get on, they are. They are decently waterproof but not very warm! I waited until it got super cold to write this review and after coming in from outside, my feet are kind of numb. But for running around to the store and whatnot they fit the bill. They are comfortable (although I wish the fuzzy went all the way down into the boot, it does not, the inside is nylony) and they match my black down jacket from LL Bean. For trips outside in the cold (I live in Minnesota where it is very cold!) they will work, but not if you plan to be out long, your feet will definitely get cold. The upside, though, they are seeming to be very water resistant, no leaking so far after one week of wear. Watch the sizing though, these are pretty narrow for boots. Overall, they are okay but I wouldn't order them again; I need something much warmer.

We had to return the boots. My wife could not get her foot pass the bungie cord located at the ankle. Liked the boots otherwise, so we have ordered one size larger. We'll see.

Cute boot, but true to other reviews, it was too small (I wear a 7 and ordered a 7), too narrow, and had no arch support at all. I returned it and ordered a pair of Sorels.

For the price the fabric should not rip on top of the shoe! I did not do much to have them rip before February when I got them in December (only couple months earlier!). That is not right but I liked them before they ripped and looked like trashy shoes out of a dumpster. By the way, it would not let me change the stars so I guess it has to get 5 for style.
