These are really really cute and also have a comfortable footbed. I wear them with leggings and skirts and skinny jeans. I have thick calves and short legs but have to prob getting these to fit -- there is plenty of room. They are not designed to fit snugly against the calf and they dont. The grip is good on bottom treads. Def functional. the color is a perfect dull black. I really love them and wear them a lot. Oh, and I thought I would have problem slipping them on w/no zipper (i HATE boots that you have to slip on and off) but its not a prob. Putting on/taking off is easy.

Love...need I say more? Fit was great, not too big with normal socks, not too tight with heavy socks. Warm, and completely waterproof. A nice variation on a Fall/Winter boot. Can dress up or down. I'm a huge fan of Sorel boots, but sometimes I have trouble sizing them because they aren't very consistent. These felt true to size and width!

I love these boots! Great support, soft liner, nice grip on the sole. Perfect for snow, rain, mud but nice enough to wear out.

Purchased two pair of these, one for each of my Daughters for Christmas. One Daughter had difficulty getting the boot on the other thought they were a half size too big.

Love these little booties. Very comfortable. Although as a slip on, I can see how it might be difficult for some people to get them on. These are not lined for warmth, but they are warm enough for a NY winter, and can wear these thru out the year (well, maybe not a hot, humid NY summer). The toe is wide enough to not squish my feet. I do find the glue on the rubber tip of the toe is not holding all that great. but it is a very comfortable boot, and keeps my feet warm and dry. Also they are flexible, so they almost feel like a sneaker with a little bit of a heel. I like them.

I love ordering from Zappos. One of the boots of the first pair I received had a blemish, so I called customer service and they sent another pair right away, which I received within two days. Unfortunately the two boots of that pair were different shades. I really liked the boots and wanted to keep a pair so I kept the original pair I received with a blemish on it. I am really picky when it comes to my shoes because they have to be comfortable and these are very comfortable. I wear them all day long to work and running around town in. They are warm enough to be out in the Iowa winter for awhile, but not drudging through snow for a long period of time. Really the only complaint I have is that the left boot seems to be more snug than the right, but I still really like them and wear them often.

A little difficult to wiggle my feet into. Glad they don't have a zipper-- I know these boots will keep my dry. However, tabs on the sides to loop my fingers thru to pull them on would have made them perfect. That said, they feel pretty good on my feet. A comfortable and sturdy boot!

I thought my feet had gotten wider, but these still fit a little too big and they are just heavy enough that that was a big deal. Otherwise they are cute enough for water proof boots!

Super nice boot but my heel and ankle were swimming in it so I'm going to return it for the Slimboot PullOn, which is similar and which I know fits me perfectly. I have a wide forefoot and arch area and both boots fit great there, very comfy. So if you have narrow heels and ankles get the similar Slimboot PullOn and if you have wider feet or trouble getting into unzipped boots in general, get this one. Sorels for everyone! The only issue I had with this boot is that the heel is quite hard and stiff and the rest of the boot is floppy. It could use a better shank in the midfoot area. But all short boots seem to be made that way these days.

I love these boots! Not only are they comfortable to walk in, but they are fashionable enough to wear with a work outfit. One little drawback is that my toes were cold, although this winter was a very cold, cold winter with subzero freezing temps.

Love the look. Lacks insulation, stiff somewhat to walk in but still feels comfortable. You do have to work your foot in past the instep area. I got my usual 6 and needed to add a shearling footbed and also a heel cup to fine tune the fit. Yet I like them a lot.

Great looking boot and quality. I normally wear a sold size 8. But I ordered the 8 after reading reviews and can't get it on. I wish it had a zipper! I am exchanging for a bigger size in hopes that it fits. I couldn't really rate comfort here but overall I think it is a 4 - should have a zipper.

I love these boots! They are very comfortable and stylish, but they are also pretty practical. I usually wear a size 6, and based on the reviews I decided to order a 5½. I am so happy that I ordered a smaller size because these run a bit big.

I wanted to LOVE these boots - they're so cute. Unfortunately, like many others, I couldn't get my foot in the boot. Such a disappointment...guess I'll just keep looking for the perfect Sorel.

I loved the look of these shoes online, but they looked bulky and clunky when on my foot. The mixed material (tweed, leather) was such a great look. I just wish this boot was a little more fitted around the foot. I had to return them for something with a more stylish, fitted fit.

I could not get them on my feet without using a blow dryer. I had to stretch them out a lot because they are too narrow for the top of my foot. Once on they are totally comfortable and very stylish. They still need stretching but I love them.

I really wanted to love these boots. I do really like them still, however my practical side won. The style is super cute, but they are a bit too thin and too much space around the ankle. I assume this is to make it easier to slip them on and off. However, for the cold NE weather they will not be warm enough for me without some heavy socks & leggings. These are lined but just with some soft thin felt like material. If I lived where it's a bit warmer and not as much snow these would be perfect! I wished I lived somewhere warmer! The style can be casual to dressy casual. I had ordered two sizes my normal and then a half size smaller. The half size smaller fit the best for me.

These boot are so very cute. Easy to put on and very comfortable. I am normally a size 8 but in Sorel, I always go down to a 7.5. The 7.5 fit perfectly and give me plenty of room to wear a thick sock. While I love these boots, I am still debating on them. They are definitely "heavier" and look like a winter boot and I was really wanting something less bulky. I order the Quarry/Fossil and the materials and print is adorable.

These are very stylish, waterproof, lightweight, and warm. I wore them to a rainy football game and by the end of the day, my feet were the only thing not wet thanks to these boots. Seem to run a little large, but proabaly necessary to pull on. The boots are loose at the top, I am not sure how they will be in snow.

Love this style, but the pull-on style without a side zipper was too narrow for my high arch/instep. I tried and couldn't even get my foot into the boot after much shoving and pulling. I do love Sorel boots, but I don't recommend this style to anyone with a high instep/arch.

Interesting fit on this one. They are super cute and have wonderful cushion. That being said the size I can't quite decide on. I wear an 8.5 Toffino, an 8 in Cate the Great, and an 8 in the slippers. I have an 8.5 slimpack boot (yes, I love Sorel!) so I figured the fit would be similar to these, but they are quite a bit larger all the way around. Even with large socks on wearing them inside, they feel a bit sloppy. I worry that with any breaking in my heal will start to slip and they will be too big. I just ordered a size 8. Hoping I don't loose to much in length and they fit a bit more snug over the top of my foot. I do have a very narrow foot so if your foot is on the wider side or you have a higher arch, I would order your actual size or a 1/2 size up. Stay tuned for how the 8's fit.

I purchased these boots a little over a year ago as a birthday present to myself. I don't often spend over 100 dollars on shoes but figured they'd be worth the investment since not only were they cute but also seemed to be made of high quality materials. I love absolutely everything about the boot. They fit perfect and look great with mostly everything I wear. However, after only one year of owning them, the rubber around the toe of the shoe is starting to separate from the upper on both boots. I wear the boots pretty often from fall to until it starts snowing in the winter but don't feel that they've been worn enough to be showing this kind of wear. As much as I loved these boots I most certainly would not purchase them again and sadly, am a bit weary to purchase Sorel shoes again, even though all of their boots are adorable.

I love the style of this boot but the fit causes my toes to slip forward and rub against the toe of the boot. Ordered my 8 1/2 size and then thought that it needed to be 9. Still it fit poorly. Lots of heel room. Really wanted this boot to work.

These are very comfortable, once you get them on. The biggest problem is getting them on and off. If you have a high arch like I do, it's VERY difficult.
