I love Sorel and own three different pairs/styles. But I have to return these because they give me blisters. Where the rubber boot meets the fabric portion is so uncomfortable. Sorels are usually the most comfortable boots so I don't know if my pair are defective or if this style just missed the mark. I ordered my regular size and these felt too big even though my other three pairs fit of the same size of Sorel fit perfectly.

I typically wear a size 8 shoe but in boots for some reason I typically have to get a 8.5-9. I originally ordered a 9 in this boot & it was a little too big. I exchanged them for an 8.5 and they are perfect! Ive never owned any Sorels before so I'd say order true to your normal shoe or boot size. And they are super comfy and warm, I don't want to take them off!

Picture it Boston December 2019 you've just moved and have never experienced a northeastern winter and 14 hours later the first snow of the season arrives! Lol! So far I'm really loving these boots. They are very warm and pretty comfortable I'm sure after they're broken in they'll be perfect. I was unsure of the fit since I'd never purchased sorels before but this definitely won't be my last pair!

Moving from Southern California to Colorado has been a total change of climate. I knew I was not prepared for the winter, but once fall hit I realized just how unprepared I really was. I needed snow shoes and fast. I wanted cute and stylish, but functional. I am 5'3 so I didn't want something heavy either. These boots are perfect!!! I LOVE the duck boot look and the cozy feel- not just on the outside. They keep my toes toasty warm and comfy! So thankful I got these boots. Coming from a girl who is always cold- trust me when I say these are an investment you won't regret!!

True to size, great quality, super cute. Nice to have a synthetic option for those of us who don't want leather. Hope Sorel continues to provide more synthetic options in the fashion styles too.

I so far really enjoy these boots. I went up half a size and they are actually a little large on my feet when I wear normal socks. I definitely recommend these!

They run large as I suspected they would just by the nature of this type of boot (a snow boot) but they are cute and I'm so glad they finally made a more wearable, smaller and in my opinion less clunky boot then then Caribou. While the Caribou has it's uses it's just too much snow boot for me. The Carnival is just right in every way.

I ordered these boots for my daughter. They are cute, but the quality was well below what I would expect from Sorel, or any boot at that price point. The canvas upper, which is impregnated with waterproofing, was creased at several spots during the waterproofing process, one very significantly, leaving several hard ridges on the outside of the shaft. Very poor quality control. I returned the boots for a refund.

I ordered these boots in size 9.5 which is my normal size. They were flopping off my feet. Even with thick socks I could not make them work. Unfortunately had to return : (

Love love love these new boots! So warm and so comfy right out of the box-no "breaking in" necessary. I expect these to last 25 years, just like my last pair of Sorels. I'll never buy another brand. Never.

I had a pair of Sorels some years back. Loved them except for the felt liner, which was tight and a pain to get on and off, so I hesitated to order them again. I was pleased to find they have changed the liner. These boots go on and off so easily. They are warm, waterproof, and I love that they are made from recycled materials. The red color is great, so bright and cheery, and I get compliments every time I wear them. I did make the mistake of ordering a half size up, but I think with my heavier boot socks they will be fine. I recommend sticking with your usual size. Also, I have slightly wide feet, and these are perfect.

Comfy boots, but too wide and clunky for my narrow feet. I tried a half size down as well, and I felt they were too short.

I love these boots! The felt liner makes these boots so warm. They are also lightweight for easy walking. Love how the waterproof fabric upper laces up and hugs your ankle while the fleece collar on the liner keeps out the snow!!! Found myself out in the snow with the dogs and realized I had put them on barefoot - still warm and comfy!

Unlike some other Sorel boots, these are true to shoe size, so my typical 9M was still fine. They are a clunkier boot, but that's what we need for Wisconsin winters in deep snow. I liked that these went partway up my calf & the sherpa top doesn't let the snow in like fur does. The ties/laces are also really easy to tighten as opposed to some other styles that have fabric 'eyes'. A+.

The shoe is great. Perfect for New England winters. Although would recommend going up a half size. I’m a size 8.5 regular and bought a size 9. With slightly thick socks these fit great. My toes are finally warm!!!

I think these are really cute boots. I didn't read carefully enough that these were just laces, I was hoping for the cinch/toggle kind for a faster getting them on experience. The boot rubbed a little at the top of the heel. Returning this for a different toggle pair, but love how these look!

I’ve been eying these for a while and finally ordered 2 pairs (8.5 & 9). I normally wear either. I’ve seen these boots on other people and they look really cute. I have a wide calf and they looked very odd on me. They could lace up tight and snug but the foux fur part at the top didn’t come close to meeting in the middle by the laces. There was a huge gap and it looked and felt strange. As for size the 8.5 fit well. They are big and clunky so a good way to tell if the size is good is to try on just the liner. If that fits well then the rest of the boot should be good even if it feels/ looks big. I wish these had worked out because they seem very warm.

I read several reviews pertaining to Sprels being either running too small or too large, however each style has a different run, in my experience these run exactly to size, try with your original size rather then going up or down.

Pros:
-better arch support than most shoes (I have high arches)
-cruelty free
-seem warm, though I didn't try them outside
Cons:
-too wide inside: I had to tie them as tight as they could possibly go to keep them from sliding off my heels; if they stretched at all they wouldn't work
-too wide outside: the toe box looks enormous, very clunky and unflattering
I wanted to love these but had to return them. If you have very tiny but wide feet, they may fit and look okay.

I ordered these in hopes they'd get me through the snowy Chicago winters. Turned out I needed them earlier than I thought, go figure, and they lived up to the hype! I sized up a half size and it did the trick. I like the height of the boot and fur lining, couldn't ask for a better snow boot!
