Customer Reviews SOREL Slimpack II Lace

I typically wear a 8-8.5 and followed others advice and sized up a full size to 9.5. Even then with bare feet, my toes were at the top. The liner on the inside slid around uncomfortably when putting on and having high arches is not a good combo with this boot. While I liked the aesthetics of this boot, it's going back and I'm back on the hunt for the perfect stylish yet functional winter boot.

I very rarely buy a shoe/boot larger than size 6, except athletic shoes (6.5) but in this boot I took the advice of other reviews and bought one whole size larger. It fit perfect.

I usually wear a 7.5 and ordered an 8.5 after reading the reviews. The boots fit perfectly. I wore them for a 4 day camping trip with wet conditions and my feet stayed dry and warm.

Order a FULL size larger!! I usually wear a 7 or 7.5 so started with a 7.5. Then an 8... I’m now ordering an 8.5... may even need a 9!!

Comfortable and cute

Last winter, I almost wore it everyday. On a snowy and windy day in Boston, this boots is a saver. I felt warm and secured wearing it. It looks so cute when you pair it with black jeans , a heavy winter coat, and a beanie hat. The boots is well made, very sturdy and I'm looking forward to keeping it for another three years at least, and I'm sure it would serve me well to go through another brutal winter here!

I'm usually an 8, ordered an 8.5.... definitely still too small! Going to order a 9. Maybe even 9.5!

Great looking shoe but ran about 1.5 sizes small

I purchased these shoes before a month-long trip to NYC in December ‘17 to January ‘18. At the time, there weren’t many reviews online so I ordered my original size 9. The size fit without issue with normal socks, however I knew I would be wearing thick wool socks to brace for the snowy, freezing temperatures of NYC in the winter, so I returned for a size 9.5. Sizing up a half size was a game changer, and my feet stayed warm and protected from the elements. You can tighten or loosen the shoe with the laces, and the mouth of the shoe meets right where your calf meets your ankle, so they were functional enough to keep snow and rain out. The heel height is insignificant, and the tread is deep on the soles, so you still feel stable when coming across black ice. I have since worn these shoes hiking muddy terrain in Yosemite, CA without issue. The shoes aren’t breathable, so your feet will sweat just like with any other waterproof shoe.

Good winter boot, a bit more stylish than most with a little boost in height from the heel. It is good for snow (keeps all moisture out), but it is a bit heavy (as is expected from winter boots). Fits true to size and goes with casual outfits.
