I loved the look of these boots, but the fit was not good. When I walked in them for the first time the strip of leather bunched in the back and rubbed on my heel, giving me a blister...and I was wearing thick socks, and only for 20 min of walking.

Too big. Ordered my usual size and they were just too big. Tried to find half size down but it wasn’t available.

The boot looks huge on. Very wide but when I walk the shaft bends into my ankle.

This boot does the trick. It's clunky but keeps my feet dry when walking through several inches of snow. The boot runs big, even when wearing thick socks. It would be great if this boot had insulation and warmth all throghout, instead of just as an aesthetic lining at the top. A little padding at the footbed wouuld also go a long way in terms of comfort. This is my first season having them, so I can't speak to quality in terms of longevity.

I really liked how warm these boots were but they were very clunky and the backs of the boots rubbed against the back of my leg too much where I ended up returning them.

I purchase numerous Sorel boots, like 6 this year and I bought these in my regular size and they are huge.

The toe part of it is obnoxiously wide and makes your toes look fat. Other than that I love them

I read all the reviews before purchasing these for myself and my mom as heavy duty snow/ice boots for Chicago winters. They are warm and cozy, BUT we each have 1 boot where the back cuts into our achilles. I am not sure if it's a sizing issue, but I've removed the insert and wore them for a few weeks and it still happens. I do love how I am able to slip these on quickly to take the dog out. Unlike Hunters, I can get in and out of these quickly with or without socks. If it weren't for that 1 ankle issue, I would be in love with these boots.

I ordered this shoe along with a wedged Sorel winter boot, both in size 9. The wedge fit perfectly but this shoe fits like a men's size. The front of the shoe is very wide. They were too big for me in length and overall extra space around my toes. I do think they would have been warm as they are insulated on the calf section.

I've worn Sorel's for decades, but because I have long feet (womens 12) I've usually had to buy men's sizes. My feet are narrow (AA), so they've always swum around in the men's boots, but better too wide than too short, right? This year I noticed that these boots were listed in women's sizes, which I was thrilled about! Unfortunately, when I got them, I discovered that they're as wide as any other Sorel's I've ever worn, if not wider. I have an old, worn-in men's pair right here that I can step into when I step out of these, so I can say with confidence that these definitely feel wider. Maybe they just call them women's boots, and make them available in new colors, but they're the same old men's boots I've always purchased before? Disappointed

These are super cute boots, very warm with better support than one would expect. But not terribly comfortable to wear for long durations. I bought them for around town, MA winters, and after wearing them for a few hours running errands I started to feel a terrible pressure (only my left foot) where my toes meet my foot. I could not wait to get them off. I am hoping they will loosen up after some wearing in, because they do seem like they will do what I need. A bit clunky but very stylish and warm.

I must have gotten an “off” pair. They were huge. Got my normal size 8, these felt like a 9 or above and were super wide.

I read all the reviews and went to a store to find my size before ordering. When I received them, they were much bigger than in the store length and width. I ordered a size bigger than my normal because i know they run small but they looked like men's shoes. They were also heavy due to the size. I would reorder in a half size up if I lived in a place with snow as these are a little too much for just rain!

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 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 : (

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.

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 boots after reading favorable reviews on them. I also have always liked the Sorel brand. However, when I received them they just didn't fit me the right way. I ordered a little larger based on what others had suggested and they were WAY too big. I am usually a 6.5 and ordered a 7. They were HUGE in the toe area. I tied the laces as tight as they would go and took them for a test walk around the house. The heel (or rather the area just above my heel) seemed to buckle in on me and made them uncomfortable from the start. I decided to return them.

I really wanted to like these boots but overall they felt way too bulky. I was hoping to use them to play in the snow with my kids but felt like I would be weighed down the whole time. They did feel like they would be warm and felt true to size. I normally wear a 6-6.5. I ordered a 6.5 and they fit great with a thick pair of socks.
