Customer Reviews SOREL Explorer Joan

I bought these for a trip to Chicago but alas, such a warm Christmas. There still hasn't been a chance to wear in very snow weather back home but have worn them here and there after snowfall of a couple inches. They are warm and comfortable. Not the greatest on ice. I had to be very careful to avoid any slick looking spots; no traction. I do like them and will continue to wear. Excited to see how they hold up when we finally get a good snow. I did size up a 1/2 size.

I had to send them back AT MY OWN EXPENSE, as this company does not provide a return shipping label. They are warm and cute.

Every Sorel I own is a size 8. This boot however fits small. I ordered an 8, only to exchange it for 8.5. I got the 8.5 and it was still a tad small. I am waiting for my size 9. My advice is definitely size up a whole size! Otherwise love the boot!

My husband got these for my birthday, and I love them! They're so cute, light weight, and comfy. Your feet won't sweat to death, but they keep you warm. I usually wear 8 (sometimes 8.5). They were too small originally as an 8. After a return and reorder of 8.5, I would say they are at least 1 size too small. I wish I would have went 1 size up instead of just half. I won't be able to wear thick socks with these but don't want to hassle with another exchange.

I have a couple different boots from sorel! These are one of my favorites! They are super comfortable and warm! I usually have very cold feet, but these kept my feet so warm! The only thing I would recommend would be going half a size up if you want to wear thick socks! Very happy with my purchase.

Super cute and stylish boots! They seem amazing and comfortable and very soft. Unfortunately, I didn't get a chance to wear them because they are too small! I ordered my normal size of 9.5 but have to exchange for a bigger size. I'm hoping the size 10 will work!

I ordered these as an option for everyday wear as they are advertised as a lighter option and a sneaker boot combo. These boots are super cute and lightweight.They are true to size, and actually I wish I had gotten a 7.5 because if I wear a thick sock they are a little too tight. I am hoping they will stretch out. The reason I gave them 4 and not 5 stars is because they tend to make my feet a little too warm, borderline hot at times. So if it's not 30 degrees or less outside, I don't pick them as my first choice to wear.

I purchased these for my sister for Christmas 2019. I went with the sizing that was recommended but they are definitely too snug. If you wore them with no socks, it'll fit ok but who would want to wear them without socks? I even tried them on myself and they were definitely snug. It'll be even more snug if I wore socks with them. Definitely get a half size larger than your normal size. That's what I would recommend.

I should have read the reviews before I ordered these because i would have known to size up instead of having to pay to ship them back for a size up. Other than running small i love these boots. So cozy and warm but not too warm to wear to work.

These are probably the most comfortable shoe I've ever warn. The inside is so soft and fuzzy it feels like you are walking around town in a bedroom slipper. I live in Colorado and the style of these shoes are right on for winter sheak.

Wear this to work daily in the days of winter that I need warmth and a little protection without needing like a huge snow boot to trudge through a storm or do cleanup in. It's really really warm... sometimes can feel hot if inside is warm and moving around a lot, but otherwise just super cozy inside and outside in cold weather. Traction isn't the best on these for icy conditions but they aren't terrible. It's not supposed to be a bulky shoe, so obviously it's going to be less efficient than a bigger sturdier snow boot. I would just give the recommendation to buyers to be cautious while walking outside mostly during the cold days when a storm has been cleaned up and cleared, but evidence still definitely litters the roads and sidewalks with ice patches or hardened slick snow. Really happy and really like these overall. Ive gotten many comments about the jealousy felt about mine... haha a lot of likes! Looking to maybe get another color... it's pretty tempting bc they are all so cute!
