Fits snugly, but like you slipped your foot into a pillow! The shoe surrounds the foot in warmth and softness! If they didn’t get so toasty, I’d probably wear them always!

Love these. Cute, comfortable and stylish. Warm, too. I wear a 10.5 and sized up to an 11.

These feel like you are wearing tennis shoes! Very comfortable all day wear - very warm! I ordered half size up and they fit perfect; however, could use a little more room for thick socks.

Absolutely love these boots! Always wear a size 8 but after reading reviews decided to go up just half a sz. Glad I did. Most definitely runs half a size small. They fit perfect! I purchased the quarry & it is a nice grey color.

One of the most comfortable boots I’ve had. It’s like walking on marshmallows. The boot runs narrow and I had to buy 1/2 size up to be able to wear thicker socks

Love these boots! Was looking for more comfort than my basic sorel winter boot and this fit the bill.

I own several Sorel boots and this by far is the comfiest! I usually go up a size but decided not to with these ones and fits like a glove. The color is rich, super soft inside and out.

I have to travel to the Midwest soon so I bought these boots for my trip. Thank goodness I read the other reviews first. I wear a size 9, but ordered a full size bigger. The size 10 fit perfectly. They are so comfy and fashionable. I love them!

I ordered these boots a half size bigger than my normal size and they are still a bit too small. I have to exchange them. I suggest ordering a FULL size bigger!! Aside from that, super cute, comfortable, amazing boots. I still give them 5 stars even with the size discrepancy.

I am so pleasantly with these boots! I was hoping they would be warm boots for casual outing but so far they have been my go to boots for every day! Perfect for the commute to work and exploring around town. They are much more water resistant than expected, they have kept my feet completely warm and dry even through snow and slush.

Great for running around town, or walking the dog in snow and slush. They are great quality and absolutely adorable, but definately run a size small. I am always an 8 in shoes. I was really skeptical about ordering a full size up, but I'm so glad I listened to other reviews and went with the 9.

I got these in camel brown and love them. My teenage daughter saw them and wanted them too, so now we both have them! They're very comfortable, and I've gotten lots of compliments each time I've worn them. I usually wear an 8.5 to 9, have a 9 in my other Sorels, and was fine with the 9 in these too. They might be just a tad snug with thick socks.

Glad I read the reviews and ordered a whole size larger than normal. I love the style of this boot. The lining is throughout the boot making them feel very warm. Have not tried out the weatherproof rating yet.

Love these boots! I'm normally a 7 in Ugg's and 8 in sneakers. I read it runs small so ordered an 8. It was too tight, then ordered an 8.5 and still too tight. I ended up ordering a 9 and they fit but a little loose. They are very comfy and warm.

I love these shoes! I bought them for a winter trip to Germany and they were the perfect purchase. They kept my feet warm and dry while being super comfortable and cute for all day walking. They run a tad small so I bought a half size up.

I’m normally a size 9 in shoes in boots but because I knew these were snow boots, I ordered a size 10 and they fit perfectly. I’ll have to wear them around the house for a few minutes before really determining how comfy they are but so far I’m happy with the purchase!

First off you must know that many women have to size up at least a half size in Sorels, but I had to size up one whole shoe size to be able to wear thicker socks with these boots. Other than that, these boots are AMAZING! The comfort level is a 10/10 and they really are waterproof. They do not make my feet overly hot and I have worn these almost every day since purchasing. I highly suggest these!

I was looking for some cute but functional boots for an upcoming Chicago Bears game. I heard Sorel had great boots so started researching options. While the other models are trendy as do all over Pinterest, they just seem like overkill and not too practicalunless out in some serious snow. Found these and thought they fit the bill. I usually wear a 9.5 or 10, and read that these run a little small. Ordered a 10.5 and put medium weight LL Bean wool rag socks onfits great. A ten would have been too tight. They feel a little more narrow, so if you have a wide foot that might be an issue. All in all, feels like wearing a sneaker. There also is no rubbing on the ankle which is a huge plus. Finally, I'm in VA so these are just the right amount of protection for a place that has fairly mild winters with the occasional snowstorm.

I bought these in the camel brown/ancient fossil and the color is not nearly as dark as what is picture all over the internet...it's the same shade as the camel brown boots with the grey felt. I also went to a local retailer to figure out what size I needed after reading all the reviews about these running small, I ended up getting a full size bigger than I normally wear and they fit perfectly-I LOVE them!! These will be my every day running around town snow boots as they are comfortably and more light weight than my Tivoli tall boots.
I'd also recommend:

Finally found the best warm boots! I have crazy thin feet and boots usually flop on me and I have to buy inserts for them. I think — because these lace and I can actually tighten them up and because of the lining — these will not need an insert. I love the light color sole and the suede upper is divine. They feel warm and comfy. I am really thrilled about the way they look, feel, and fit!
