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.

I did a full size up and they fit well. I think I could have gotten away with a half size up, but I wanted there to be room for thick socks too!

I purchased this boot because i wanted a waterproof boot that i could wear all day during the rainy season and feel like i have the support i need to work and play in them. Regular rain boots i usually end up changing out my shoes once i get indoors, not with these. The first day i wore them, i kept them on even at work and i stand long hours. I am a hairstylist so i need to wear footwear with support but also it needs to be cute and stylish. It took no time breaking them in and each day they seem to get more comfortable. I am so happy with my new Slimpack II lace boots, I highly recommend them!

Love these. Warm, cute, waterproof. Perfect for the crazy weather we’ve had recently. I normally wear a size 10, but bought a 10.5 based on reviews - they fit great. Love them.

I wanted to love these boots because they look pretty good and they're waterproof. I've had good luck with Sorel in the past. But these boots are very weird because they have a rubber outer shoe and then a fabric inner liner that is more like a sock in that it's not actually attached to the rubber part of the boot.
The problem is, I ordered up a full size to accommodate winter socks, and while the rubber outer shoe is plenty roomy (i.e. when I put on the shoe and press on the outside of the toe of the shoe and wiggle my toes, I have ample room and in fact it sort of feels a little too big), INSIDE the boot, the liner is SOOOOOO tight. Like basically it feels like the boot is a 9.5 and the liner is for a size 7. It's so tight that it makes the insole buckle and/or come up at the back when there's no foot in the boot. Just wearing it for one minute around the house makes my toenails hurt, even if I try it without any socks at all. If I reach down inside the boot with my hand, I can feel that the liner is stretched very snugly around the insole and isn't anywhere near as big as the rubber part of the boot. It's awful.
It seems like the only solution would be to cut out the liner, but then it's just a rubber rain boot without lining or insulation. So unfortunately, these have to go back.

I purchased these shoes this fall and am now having issues with the heel peeling off... I barely wear them and love the style so frustrating.

Super comfortable, the heel makes me feel a little less like a yeti and more like a woman traversing Antarctica which is nice.

I bought these red colors, they are really beautiful. Usually, I wear a 6, but they were too tight. I preferred to take a 7 because the 6.5 was no longer available. It worked well with the 7. They are very comfortable. I find them hot at -10 C just with a sock, so I guess for a lower temperature, 2 woolen socks should do the trick. It is a little difficult to set foot but as the stem is not high, it is not so serious. I walked in the water because of the snow that melted with a drop in temperature and rain, my feet were dry. However, the water was just ankle for the worst places I walked that day.

Was so excited to get these as I was heading to Chicago at the record low temperatures rivaling the North Pole. These ran really small. I am a true 6 1/2 without waivering much. I have had to reorder and have them sent to Chicago ahead of me as they won't make it in time for me to take them with me. Zappos is awesome for that. I am ordering a 7 1/2 this time. I would order up a size if you plan to wear socks with any thickness. Great boot otherwise.

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.

Definitely order a half to a full size up! I usually wear an 8.5 or 9, depending on the style, but needed a 9.5 in this boot. So glad I listened to other reviewers and adjusted accordingly, because they fit perfectly and didn’t even require break-in time.

I had heavily researched different brands, and styles and thought this was a good fit. However, after wearing the shoes outside in the elements I was greatly disappointed. I have other non winter boots that keep my feet warmer than these. After several days I just ended up wearing my Dr. Martens.

This is the second pair I've had to order becuase the first pair was not completly sealed at the rubber toe. This pair also is not fully sealed leaving my feet awkwardly damp after I've walked through the snow. I will once again return. They are super cute and I wished they'd work out!

This was such a tricky boot for me. I always wear a 7-7.5 but never an 8. The seam on the top of the 7 & 7.5 cut into the bone on the top of my foot so I had to go with an 8. In The process of trying to find the right size I also tried the Sorel Winter Carnival in an 8 which was gigantic. I finall got a sz that fit and I love it. Super comfy, cute & not like lugging around an uncomfy welly boot all day.

I work in retail and it's hard to find boots that have good traction since I live in New England and am going in and outside all day. These boots are great! I don't ever worry about falling anymore and I'm able to wear these the whole 9 hours that I'm on my feet without getting blisters or pain in my feet at the end of the day. So happy with this purchase and will definitely buy again!

Wife likes them a lot... her words were they feel like wearing slippers. We ended up going up a half size from her normal.

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.

I ordered the elk/black in my usual 1/2 size up. It fits very comfortable with med thick sock. The lining feels very cozy to the toe. I ordered a 7 and I have a med foot on the slim side but definitely not narrow. The leather is good thick quality. My only negative is a styling point, I would have preferred all leather on the back instead of the fleece cuff. Overall, they are still a beautiful boot...i have the black also--very rich combination.

I bought these boots to get to and from work. They are warm, stay tied, and are perfect height. The construction is excellent. You do need to untie to get on and off, but I would rather have them fit snug than too big. I love these boots.
