These boots are appealing to the eye since the style is so chic, however, I had sort of the same issue that another person in the comments had. I thought I was the only one with the bad experience, it's true there is a fabric liner inside the shoe which makes the fitting of the boot smaller that's why you have to sz up because your feet will feel snug if you don't. I had to order these boots 3 times, first order was too small, second order had a manufacture defect and third order was finally the right one. For some reason I'm still not fully convinced with these boots but I'll see and give them a try.

Heel runs a bit wide but need the larger size for the length. Boots are heavy and not flexible at all but sturdy, warm and solid in cold weather.

I've been looking for a boot that is stylish but also one that could go for light hikes in. The heel is a little high for walking for that long (I'm also a heel-walker), but the boots are nice and warm. I always have to get a larger size in Sorel shoes, but these fit really cozy.

Take the advice of other peeps on this thread: Order a FULL SIZE up. I ordered a half size up from a 9 to a 9.5 and they were far too tight. Otherwise, these boots were super cute. I returned them because of the sizing.

Love the style of the boots. However the sizing is way off. Don't like that I have had to order 3 sizes to find a pair to fit. I'm usually an 8.5 so I ordered that size first. They were way too small. Ordered a size 9 and the left was too snug. Kept those and ordered size 9.5. Those arrived today and are significially bigger. Trying to decide which size to keep.

Agree with other reviewers that these felt at least 1/2 to 1 full size small. Usually an 8 or 8.5 and had to return these for a 9. I haven’t worn them outside the house yet, but the style is cute and I think they’ll be great for winter walks and commuting.

These are my first pair of Sorels, so I read a lot of reviews on this shoe. I'm originally a 7.5 - 8 and from what everyone said the shoe runs small.. So I ordered a 8.5. Really glad i did! I can wear thick and thin socks and still have room to move my toes. They're super warm,I have no other complaints so far... I've only had them for 2 months so I hope they keep up with the winter!

Sizing is true to size for Sorel fashion-ish boots—if you have other Sorel boots for legitimate snow-and-rain mucking, these will likely feel 1/2 to 1 size too small.
Appearance and comfort are great; lined interior keeps my feet toast warm (which is good, because there’s no fitting extra-thick socks in these boots).

Super cozy and very warm! I actually bought two pairs, only bummer is that the back tab (where you pull to put on boot) broke on both pairs of boots I have.

I have the Joan of Arctic boots but needed something less bulky and fuzzy. These are perfect for a shortie like me. I tried them on in a store in a different color because other reviewers made me concerned about the size. A half size up was perfect for me. Haven't tested them out in anything but rain yet, but I'm liking them so far. I got the black pair and will likely swap out the red laces for black.

I had read reviews so I ordered a size bigger. I wear an 8 1/2 to 9 depending on shoe. So I initially ordered a 9 1/2 but there was still not enough room for wearing a regular sock or thick winter sock. I returned boots & ordered a size 10. A 10 had slightly enough room for a thicker sock.
Definitely order a whole size up. I have narrow feet so someone who typically wears a 9, may have to order a 10 1/2!!!
Haven't had much snow here in IN yet to test to see how warm boots keeps my feet in the snow.
Wish I wouldn't have had to pay return fee since I reordered same product.

I bought these for function and fashion. I have outdoor bus duty daily and needed something for snow and rain. These are great to keep me dry. Only complaint would be the toe area is not overly warm or have a lot of cushion but with winter socks you are great. I love that these can also be fashionable for me to wear out for everyday wear without adding bulk. Glad I got them :)

As per other reviews on this boot, it fits slightly small. I ordered this for my daughter who wears a size 10. She opted to get a 10 despite other reviews on this boot. The boot seems to be shaped a little different at the toe box. Even though the 10 is a little snug on her 3-5 toes, she has plenty of room at her big toe. So, we aren't sure if a larger size would help much. She is afraid if she orders a larger size, it will start to slip on her heel so she is keeping the 10 and hoping for the best. Otherwise, the boot is well made and very cute!

I got these boots just in time for a snow storm, they didn't disappoint! I read several reviews and sized up a half size. I normally wear a 9 and ordered a 9.5, these worked great with thicker socks, but also felt fine with regular socks. I stayed out for several hours and my feet were warm the whole time.

Due to other reviews, I initially ordered a FULL size larger, but had to exchange for just a half size larger then my normal shoe size. I do not have wide feet, but found the shoe to be narrow, and fit snug across the top of my foot.

Loveeeddd these boots, but they were way too small & then I had buyers remorse because I already have a few pairs of Sorels. So I ended up returning them. If I knew to order a whole size bigger I probably would have kept them.

Super cute and quality leather. I read the reviews and ordered a full size up to 9.5, but felt too big, my heel was slipping. I’m an 8.5 and a 9 would probably have been a better fit. Not much arch support in these.

Runs very small in length and width, even more so with winter socks. Order at least one full size up.

Cute boot but does run small. I wear a 9 and ordered a 10 but still felt like it was too small. The left boot was defective inside, the lining seemed like it was sewn in wrong. I will be sending them back.

After reading the reviews, I ordered a full size larger than I typically wear and I'm glad I did. I usually wear an 8.5 in boots, but I ordered 9.5 in the Slimpack II Lace and they fit perfectly.

We really liked these and wanted to keep them but we had to return bc the back of one of the shoes started to separate. Will try to purchase another pair.

While I'm a bit hesitant when reading reviews to see about the fit of the shoes, I sometimes think it depends if you have naturally wider feet. I usually wear a size 6 in all sorel boots except the "out n about boot", I'm a 6.5 in that one, I own 4 other sorel boots in size 6. I have tried on both the 6 and 6.5 in this boot and they both fit just a little snug. I honestly didn't even notice the difference between the 6 & 6.5. I could go up to a 7 and be comfortable!!! I would def recommend going up a full size!!
