Very disappointed in these boots. I thought I was ordering a pair of good quality boots. The heel started squeaking and is separating from the boot. The other boot heel also has a different issue.

Love these boots, ordered a 7 1/2 as well as a 7 kept the 7 1/2 they fit perfectly. Sleek design and I love the small heel. Looks great with almost anything.

Loved the boot but suggest you size up at least 1/2 size - maybe even a full size if you live in colder climate and want to wear two pairs of socks! Normally wear a 9 - 9-1/2 and have ordered a 10 and 10-1/2 in another similar style by Sorel to try (10 & 10-1/2 sold out in this style).

I was going to a trip to Toronto, so I needed some durable warm, waterproof shoes that were also not that bulky and of course comfortable. I am so happy with this purchase it was everything I needed it to be. I went on long walks with these and they were not only comfortable but kept my feet super dry and warm the whole time. I am normally a true 7, but after reading many reviews I ordered both a 7 and a 7.5. I ended up wearing the 7.5 since there is a felt lining inside the whole shoe, you should size up. I thought I needed to double up on the socks, but some days I went with only one pair and I was totally fine. Great purchase!

I picked these out as a holiday gift and have basically not taken them off (except to sleep or ski) since I received them. We are already having a super snowy winter here in Montana, these are great for daily wear. I keep them loosely laced for easy on/off at the door. I am a narrow 8 1/2-9 and I ordered in a 9 1/2, same as my tall Sorels, they fit just fine. The heel is super cute and I have done plenty of walking with no issues. Perfect with skinny jeans. Many complements. Worth the $!

Love them! I took the advice of others and ordered a full size larger. They were perfect. Not real warm, but a great boot to run around in. Very light.

You for sure need to order one size larger than your normal size. I wear an 8 1/2 and I ordered a 9 1/2 and they fit perfect. I love the way they feel. They are very comfortable and not at all clunky. They don't look huge on your feet even though you have to order a whole size larger. They are great! I'm so excited to wear them. I live in Texas and so I am limited to rain and cold weather but I look forward to those days now.

This is a great snow/winter boot! I bought these to replace a pair of LLBean boots, and these are by far more comfortable. The size is a little tricky. I would order a size up. I am usually a 5.5 and ordered the 6, and I still can't wear really thick wool socks with them (though the thinner SmartWool socks were just fine). These boots kept my feet dry and warm while hiking and sledding in the Cascade Mountains. I am very happy with my purchase.

These boots are super cute! I wouldn't say they're the warmest but they aren't technically snow boots- more for rain, which is perfect in the PNW! They make my feet look small! However, they do run small! I wear a 6.5 in regular shoes, a 7 in nikes and running shoes and I had to order a 7.5- which fit perfect! They are a bit stiff in the ankle which is awkward for stairs but I'm sure they'll get more soft with wear. I hope they last forever! PS the first pair I got had a weird section of extra fabric that rubbed against my foot. I called Zappos and they told me they'd send me a pair that will get here the next day! This is the first time I utilized their customer service and it really is freaking amazing!

I am returning my boots and getting another pair. I am not sure if they were defective or just poorly made, but I had wet feet every time I work them. They are supposed to be waterproof, but I am not sure where the water is coming in. I will try another pair of the same shoes to see if they leak too. If so, I'll return those and get a different pair.

I love these! They are not huge and clunky like other sorels that make you feel like you have clown feet. They are super comfy, snug, very warm. The tan color is beautiful! Very well made, excellent materials. I wear them on cold days all the time even if it's not snowing/raining, because they are so warm. Would highly recommend, they do run a little small, I usually wear an 8 in boots, 7 1/2 in sneakers and I had to get an 8 1/2 in these.

I am a true 7.5 but will be exchanging for an 8 in these boots. Love the quality and look of them.

Definitely one full size smaller. I'm a solid 8.5 and have a narrow foot. The 9.5 are good.
I realized part of what makes them feel narrow/tight is a unattached fleece-like lining that feels like a sock. It was confusing at first because there was plenty of room in the toe box which is rubber because they are waterproof. So, I imagine the liner thing will easily stretch, although it does give the illusion of being snug.
The burgandy/wine color is great, and I don't have any waterproof shoes so I imagine I'll keep these. I've never tried LL Bean or similar.

I am always an size 8 in Sorels! And I own a few ;). These unfortunately are far too tight, fits narrow and my toes are at the end. I would recommending sizing up at least 1/2 size if not a full size. Otherwise a beautiful shoe!

I love these boots.... but SIZE UP!!! They are the best duck boots out there, materials have a much richer look than some out there. I am normally an 8 on everything, but when I ordered them they were REAL snug. So I exchanged for a 9, and they fit perfect!!!

Just received these boots before heading to NYC for Xmas events with my BFFs. These were the only boots/shoes I brought with me and wore them everywhere as they looked super cute with leggings and over-sized top or sweater dress. I wanted a warm but comfortable boot as I probably walked 4 to 5 miles a day in them. My feet felt great by end of the day. Highly recommend. Do go up a size as I normally wear a 7 to 71/2 and got an 8. Got lots of compliments from the locals in NYC too!

As another reviewer wrote, the loop at the back of the boot broke before I even wore them out of the house. It was literally my first time trying them on at home, and as I pull the loop to put the boot on it tore. Poor construction. I showed the boot to a cobbler and he said I should return the boot and he thought it likely that if one loop broke, the quality of construction might not be high. I returned them.

I bought these boots in black and couldn't be happier with the design and style. I ordered a full size up based on other customer feedback but honestly could have gone up only half a size because I don't plan to wear bulky socks with them. I'd advise using your athletic shoe size unless you plan to wear them with thick socks; if so go up another half size above your athletic shoe size. Even without thick socks these are quite warm and comfortable.

These boots are even better in person. I would suggest ordering AT LEAST 1/2 size up if not a full size up if you are planning to wear thicker socks. I will be exchanging my 9 1/2's for a 10 to allow for a thicker sock. I usually wear a 9.

I ordered a size 9 due to other reviews, but I usually wear an 8, and they fit great. They actually felt a little snug with boot socks... I used these for almost an entire 3 days straight hiking/walking in northern California, and they were comfortable straight out of the box. I currently live in Milwaukee and know I will get great use of them come the blizzards. They do a nice job of keeping my toes warm and are comfortable enough for everyday wear. I would say the style is not as sleek and slim as I hoped, but they are definitely functional for this winter and will go well with casual daily wear.
