Customer Reviews SOREL Joan of Arctic™ Wedge II Tall

There is so many amazing things to say about this boot! The fit is wonderful, the finish of the leather is supreme, and the use of the boot cannot be beat! I live in Seattle and do lots of walking in the rain and this boot has never disappointed! Super comfortable for all day wear and great for trekking for the city in the rain puddles! If you are undecided on whether or not to buy-click purchase now! You will not regret it!

I bought these in the ash brown which is a beautiful taupe/stone color. They fit true to size and are very comfortable. Some reviews said it hit them at a weird position on the calf but I didn't think so. They don't come up all the way to my knee, however they are adjustable with the laces so I didn't find that to be problematic. Looking forward to wearing these more this fall and winter!

I fell in love with this style of boots 2 seasons ago but didn't buy them. Last year they weren't available. This year when I saw them again, I had to have them! I wear an 8 in tennis shoes- 7.5 in most others. I needed an 8 in these. The ash brown was in store but I didn't love the color. I wanted the black or camel but the store I was at didn't carry those colors. I gambled and ordered the camel brown. I was a little worried that the color would be too mustardy. They are awesome! The color is perfect! Rich, but not too wild. I love the zippers on the side- easy to get on and off without untying them. They are warm too. Maybe too warm for a full day indoors but perfect for MN

I needed some new tall boots to replace my old Sorels that fell apart after being worn too much last year (RIP - Women's Lolla Tall - the cutest boots ever). I like that these have a wedge so I can *technically* dress them up to wear to work (I live on the east coast so "dress-up" during rain/snow is all relative). I am going to replace the laces with all-black ones so they won't look so sporty, but all in all I'm happy. Very comfy and cute. I sized up to a 7 (normally a 6.5 in EVERYTHING) as these run a bit small.

I love these boots. I've been looking for something like them for years and I'm so grateful to have finally found something that looks stylish and is comfortable as well. They are very well made and the color differentiation is bit more distinct than you see online, which I like a lot.

These boots are amazing! First thing, quality: materials, finishings, details. Worth the money. I got the ash brown and the color is very unique. They're also very comfortable as far as I can tell (haven't worn them out yet). They look exactly as in the pictures, and fit true to size. They're hard to get in and out at first, hoping this will get better over time. I disagree with some of the reviews saying these are not tall enough. They are, at least on a 10 (I am 5'10 and have long legs). They're not the tallest boots I own, but I'd say they're average, definitely not an awkward shaft height. The laces do make a bit of a fold when you bend your ankles, but I don't see that not happening unless the boots were really tight or rigid, which would make them uncomfortable. And it doesn't look bad in my opinion. All in all, I recommend these boots and I'm excited to wear them in the crude Chicago winter!

I've been waiting for this boot since the last version was discontinued due to quality of the lace Loop breaking. These Boots are gorgeous and the quality is top-notch. Sorrell really listened to customer comments on this one. The side zipper is an amazing edition making the ease of taking them off and putting back on wonderful. The lace-up option is wonderful for those of us with wide calves. This boot is absolute perfection in my opinion. You will not find anything else like these on the market as far as quality and comfort for a wedge. The style is one of a kind as sorel is famous for. I pair these with pencil skirts or skinny jeans and I get compliments like no other. Perfect strangers will comment on these in the grocery store, at the mall etc. I live in Minnesota and I wore the old ones all last winter with warm wool socks and they worked fine in the brutal winter here. The sole is nice for the icy conditions we have here. This boot is again Perfection and I would highly recommend. I will be buying in every color. Thank you sorell!

I wear a size 10.5 or 11 in most shoes, and have noticed that in leather shoes there are usually imperfections when it gets made for that size. So with that in consideration, these boots are actually pretty comfortable and very safe on snow/ice. I was mainly concerned about that and I have no concerns having worn them a bit now. There is a slight imperfection on the zipper where it feels like it is missing a little give around the ankle and digs into my ankle annoyingly after a few minutes. Having looked for great boots like this for awhile, I decided its not annoying enough to return because overall, the boots look great and I can live with this imperfection. I suspect these boots will last a long time. They really look great. For me, this is a Colorado hang out type of boot, running kids to daycare boot, it's not like I'll be wearing these to go hiking all day. But it will be great for those weekend getaways to Vail etc. Loving them for the most part! (Measure your foot like it says on the sizing instructions. It's exact.)

I got these boots as a Christmas gift last year and I absolutely LOVE them!! I got them in chocolate. Every time I wear them, I get compliments. Sometimes one of the boots is uncomfortable on the side. I typically wear thick socks with them, but overall LOVE them and plan to buy a pair in black! Statement boot!!

I love wearing these all the time. They are my most comfortable shoes even standing in them all day. The only thing wrong with them is the sole is so slippery even though the boots are waterproof.
