Customer Reviews SOREL Explorer Joan

What a fabulous pair of boots! As comfortable as my favorite sneakers, as warm as my sheepskin winter boots. I've been wearing them nonstop. I usually wear a 10 (which was not in stock) so got the 10.5. It fit perfectly. I have a very square toe box and a medium width foot, high arch. These fit my feet beautifully, width was great and has adequate arch support. And they are SO cute! I receive lots of compliments on them. The tan leather is very soft and pliable ( enduring our snowy slushy midwest weather) and the gray felted wool inset seems quite durable. I may have to get another pair in the black. Fabulous buy!

I just received these boots in the quarry/black color today and I love them! I had tried another pair of Sorel boots and they were too heavy to walk around in but these boots are perfect. They're cute, the quarry/black color is more gray in person, it seemed gray/army green online to me. They are warm. The only negative I see is that they are pretty narrow. I have a narrow foot so they fit me fine but I don't think I will be able to wear super thick socks with them. If you need to wear very thick socks or you have wide feet, I would go up in the width or choose another pair.

Reviews said to order a full size larger, so i did. that said, these boots are AWESOME! I first ordered from Sorel. Took a week to arrive were the wrong color. I was headed out of the country- needed them quickly. Returned to Sorel. Ordered from Zappos. They arrived the next day AND they were $10 less expensive. I walked over 5 miles a day in the cold and rain in Munich in these boots. My feet were dry, warm and comfortable. I wear orthotics in all of my shoes, and I do think with the larger size I could have fit them, but these boots were so comfortable I never needed them. Absolutely LOVE these boots!

I ordered a size larger than normal and they fit perfectly. Keep your feet warm and are comfortable for walking long distances even with thick wool socks.

The lining in these boots is so plush and thick!! It definitely affects the width - but not in a bad way, because nothing rubs. I hate socks. HATE them. And these boots are amazing to wear without socks!! I do have to powder the toes though, as my feet can easily get too warm! But in Michigan winters, the warmth is always welcome. I get compliments on these cute boots every time I wear them too!

Runs a tad small. Had to return true size and reorder 1/2 size up, which fit perfectly.

The boots are styling and very warm. The fit is a bit narrow, but I think they will break in.
