These boots are PERFECT for my needs!!! They are incredibly comfortable, and I often wear them all day long without getting sore or tired feet. The inside feels like wearing a slipper, so soft and warm and supportive. The outside is stylish, and I love the fur trim and the color options (quarry/grey, black, and ash brown are my favorites, I now own all 3 of those colors). When I wear them with jeans or pants over the top of them, it looks like I’m wearing nice suede sneakers, so the style is extremely versatile. The fact that they are waterproof makes them even better! I live in Montana, and I have worn these through deep snow with no problems (my feet stayed dry and warm!) and the boots still look perfect afterwards. DEFINITELY buy a full size later than your usual shoe size, however; I wear a size 6-6.5, and the size 7 in these boots is a perfect fit. Overall I love everything about these boots, and I highly recommend them!

Love the shoes! Perfect for Midwest winters.. they passed the test when we were -18 in Iowa. My first pair of Sorels. I usually wear a 6.5 or 7... decided to go with 7.5 so I could wear thick socks!

Love these boots! I usually wear a 7 or 7-1/2 and so I originally ordered the 7-1/2 seeing comments about them running small, I did have to return them and order an 8. Great and comfortable for all day wear!

I love these boots. They have moderate arch support and are super comfy. I can walk in them for hours with no issues. I am normally a size 7 or 7.5 and had to get these in size 8. I don't have room for a really thick sock, but they fit nicely. I suggest sizing up a full size in these for a perfect fit.

Amazingly warm and comfortable in Michigan winters. Sized up from 8 to 8.5. Perfect. Warmer than my Bogs, Merrells, and Baretrap winter boots.

It took a couple of tries finding the sorel boots for me. These are them. Warm, good traction. Easy on and off if I tie loosely. More secure if I cinch. They were a bit tight at first but almost immediately loosened. I normally wear a 7-7.5 and went with an 8. My heels stick out weird and I get a lot of blisters but not with these

After reading the reviews I wasn’t sure if I should size up but I am always 7.5 so I didn’t. I ordered the 7.5 & they fit great wearing regular socks. They are very warm & have decent traction. I bought the ash brown color & I love it!

These boots popped up on several searches for, "Warmest winter women's boot" so I had to give it a try. I love my L.L. Bean thinsulate lined boots, but my feet have been so cold with our new COVID related outdoor lifestyle! I really like these boots. I wore them with thick merino wool socks and my feet were warm and comfortable. I am normally a 6.5-7 in women's shoes. I have a higher arch and a average width foot and I was surprised that even going up to a 7.5 still felt too narrow in the toe box and rubbed the back of my heel. I am glad I tried the 8. They are the perfect size with a thick sock and do not feel too heavy or bulky despite going up a full 1.5/1 sizes! Comfort and warmth aside, these look clean and cute!

These are the most comfortable and lightweight boots I've ever owned! I wore them walking for a whole weekend and didn't feel a thing. They do run just a touch small so I had to wear thin socks. I also received several compliments on how cute they are.

I am usually a 6 1/2 and bought these in a 7 based in reviews and wanting to wear a thicker sock. They fit perfect. They are warm and cute! Super comfortable too. Didn't need any breaking in.

Can’t give this boots enough stars! So comfortable and warm! I wore them while walking all over NYC in the middle of a winter storm, stepped into puddles of wet dirty snow, and not only my feet were warm and dry, the boots look like new today!! Good job Sorel!

Love these boots! They are a little snug when you first put them on but quickly feel more comfortable after minutes of walking in them. They are very comfortable and are perfect for the snow. Size up half size.

Love fit, comfort & light weight. Did buy 1/2 size up from my size to allow for heavy socks. 4th pair of Sorel boots purchased this winter.

I walk on average 4+ miles a day at work at a Auto Dealership-the soles have good grip-this week and last snow and Ice. So going in and out, these are truly waterproof and warm. I want these in a warm weather (non faux fur) style too! Like do much-I’m looking at another color soon. I am in late my 60’s so fit and comfort are extremely important

I just broke out my new boots last week in the snow and I couldn't be happier. My feet were toasty and dry- never felt the cold wetness of the outside! I sized up per all the excellent suggestions by 1 whole size- important to note! I felt like I was rockin a pair of sneakers that were both effective and stylish traversing snowy terrain. I def recommend!

These are so comfortable! My feet are toasty warm at hockey games and while outside with the dogs in northern MN. They're super lightweight like a tennis shoe which is so nice. I find myself keeping them on all day! As in with every pair of Sorels I own I sized up half a size and they're perfect.
