Customer Reviews SOREL Ainsley™ Conquest

I bought these to wear on my trip to Amsterdam because of rainy weather there. Don’t know yet about the weather proofing but the boot itself is so comfortable. And the style is right on. First time out with them I got so many compliments.

I have been wanting a pair of old-school looking boots for awhile and I loved the way these looked in black with the red laces. I bought two pairs, one a half size larger and one a full size larger. The full size is the way to go to wear with my Smartwool socks. I have narrow to average width feet and the area around the ball of my foot was a bit too tight in the half size larger pair. I like wiggle room in the toe box. These boots are very comfortable! They are not like the hiking boots of yore. The shoe is much more flexible than you would think but still very sturdy. I wore these walking a full day the first day I wore them and they were wonderful start to finish. Love them. If I see a great sale I'll get another color!

Cute style. Bought these for upcoming trip to Amsterdam where it rains a lot in the winter and I wanted something cute other than bulky galoshes. I am anxious to see how they wear in the wet conditions.

My size can range anywhere from a 7 (heels), 7.5 (flats), to 8 (boots). I got my normal 8, but found them to be slightly too snug for comfort (I could see the points on my foot where the shoe would press) and returned them for an 8.5, which fits much better with the thick socks I would be wearing with them. Anyway, these are super cute and I'm kinda leaning towards getting them in the oatmeal too!

Sadly they are narrow - I don't have wide feet - but my feet are too snug in these to make them work. So sad cause I really love them and even tried ordering a size up.

I ordered a full size larger than my normal shoe size, and I’m glad I did. My experience with Sorels is they all run a full size too small. I got this in the black with red laces. I love the look! Super stylish at half the price of high end apres-ski boots. Very comfortable too with a cushioned foot bed. Highly recommend.

These boots are amazing, I work 12-20 hours a day in them and no matter rain or snow my feet stay dry. I am always a size 8 in boots and and I am an 8 in these. Occasionally I can do a 7.5 in heels. I feel the width is true and my feet are not narrow. They are a bit stiff at first but quickly stretch out. I usually don't have time to change for the gym after work so I do the eliptical and lift in these too. This boot is the best because so versatile, stylish and comfy. I bought 2 pairs, black and tan.

So cute and comfy but too narrow.

After reading other reviews, I ordered both a half and full size up to see which felt the best. I normally wear a 10 and the 10 1/2 felt tight at first just like another reviewer said. The 11 felt roomy and comfortable but only if I wore super thick socks - with normal every day socks my feet slipped around on them a bit more than I was comfortable with. Took another review were's advice and wore the half-size up (with thick socks) around the house for a few hours over the course of the weekend. They were stiff at first and I was afraid they would stay feeling too tight but after the second day, they are perfect. I've worn them hiking for hours in the mountains and they stayed comfy. In my opinion, The whole size up would have stretched too much and I would have only been able to wear them with a very thick socks and perhaps some type of shoe insert to take up space. A half size up was perfect. Just keep in mind when trying them that you will need to wear them around the house for a while. I recommend wearing thick winter socks while doing this. After mine were broken in, any thickness of sock works just fine. And I love them!

I am a true perfect size 7 and they fit perfectly. However if your foot is slightly wider than this could be an issue. The width is marginally narrow than true to size but they seem to stretch in a few wears . LOVE LOVE this boots. I own a shelf full of Sorels

I am normally a 6.5 or 7 depending on shoe. These ran small. Took a 7.5 First 7.5 in my 56 years. Nice, stylish, comfortable boot

These are super cute. I ordered a 6.5 in the brown color. I am a 6 in all my shoes but ordered up so I could wear a warm thick sock this fall/winter. The are super cute with legging, skinny jeans and bootcut jeans. Glad I can mix it up now between my Out N' About boots and the Ainsely boots now.

These are soooo comfortable for a hiking boot. Very soft materials, so no breaking in like some stiff hikers. I read reviews and ordered a half size up and they are perfect. I also have narrow feet so Sorels always work well for me.

These cute boots run small.

As many other reviewers have stated, these run small so take at least a half size up, if not a full. I’m usually a 9, and have slightly wider feet, so I went for a 10. They fit well but will need to be broken in quite a bit, which is to be expected with boots like these. Style, exceptional. Quality, great. Fit, just a bit narrow but I’m willing to work with them because they’re so cute.
