Customer Reviews SOREL Winter Carnival™

Great boot, I purchased to wear when I ride my bike this winter in Chicago and they are great. Nice height and very warm! This is my second pair of Sorels and I will continue to buy this brand!

Excellent, warm and dry boot. I can wear thick socks and still have enough room for feet to feel comfortable. Love these boots!

My 2 daughters and I all have a pair of these boots and Love them! My feet stay very warm after 2 hours of being outside in 20 degrees. Fit is true to size. You do need to wear a sock that comes up above your ankle with these. Low cut socks tend to come off in the boot.

This is an update to my 11/15/14 review. I've discovered I can put on a pair of thick'ish cotton crew socks and get my foot into the felt liners in these boots. I've also discovered that it's become easily to get these boots on...guess getting into them takes practice. I've been outdoors as long as a hour in these and my feet have remained warm. As in previous review, I love how easy it is to lace and unlace these boots. They are clunky. And my socks usually pull off when I remove the boots, but darn it...they keep my feet warm and dry.

I purposely did not read the reviews prior to purchasing these boots. I wanted to be my own judge. I received the boots and they are VERY clunky/heavy & I could tell that they were NOT going to be warm. I then read the reviews and they were accurate. These boots are not even true to size. I'm 7 and took the 6 and the 6 fit.

Needed a pair or boots for mucking about the land in extreme cold weather and snow...to fill the bird feeders, shovel path to barn/garage, take household garbage down the driveway to the bin. Because of the felt liner, it is impossible to get my foot into these wearing any sock except Nouvella's very thin, cotton/nylon/spandex knee-highs. I did go out briefly one morning in minus temps without socks at all and my feet stayed warm. I ordered an 8.5, my usual size. Plenty of toe room. Heel fits fine. They are easy to lace and un-lace. Pants legs fit easily inside top of boot...even flannel-lined jeans! They are clunky to walk in. I move slower than usual in them but feel well balanced. They kept my feet warm for the 30 minutes I was out in them one morning this week in 9 degree weather. They seem to be serving their purpose.

I was absolutely obsessed with these boots until I put them on. The backs of the shoes dug into my ankles after only about ten minutes to the point where I couldn't wear them anymore. They also bent in the back awkwardly (maybe my ankle is just too short/fat who knows). I ordered an 8 1/2 but normally wear a 9 and they fit just as well aside from the other issues.

I wanted to love this boot. It was cute and very warm but there was an inner sewn in liner that pinched the back of my heel and made it uncomfortable as well as pucker the fabric on the outside.

I wanted to love these boots and I almost did. However, the boots bends inward at the back and rubs on the ankle. Very disappointing.
