I was expecting a little more heel, but these are solid and comfortable. Took a couple days to not rub the sides of my toes.

So I ordered these online and received them fairly quickly! I was nervous because they looked bulky in the box. Tried them on and oh my goodness, they are so cute!!! They go with every pant I have! So Comfortable and easy to walk in too!

I have other Joan wedges in both 9.5 and a 10 and can wear thick socks with them. Got these in 9.5 to wear thinner socks and I couldn't even get my foot in the boot. Ordered a size up. Waiting for them to arrive.

This is my second pair! I have the grey and the brown. The brown is lighter than pictured, other than that I love them. Very comfortable and looks great!

The color is definitely lighter than the picture. When I received my boots they appeared distressed, but I was able to use a suede brush to even out leather.

Love the style and quality of this boot but these new Joanie boots run much narrower than previous versions. I own many pairs of different kinds of Joanie wedge boots - all in a 6.5 but these were extremely narrow. They took some serious breaking in and stretching of the leather before I could wear them comfortably. That being said - love the zipper detail and how cool they look overall.

This is an updated version of the short boot, but I'm on the fence. I think I still like the Chelsea style more.

Normally a 7 1/2 or 8, tried an 8, ended up with 8 1/2 as the best fit, Zappos free returns made everything super easy

I typically wear a 9 shoe size and after reading the reviews, I’m so glad that I ordered a full size larger. My 10’s fit perfectly with a little extra room to breathe! These shoes are super cute and comfortable, especially when I walk around work a lot. The color isn’t as dark as the picture portrays. It’s more of a lighter shade of brown. Still very cute though!

Fit nice. It’s a fairly high wedge. Comfortable and the cushion was good. This newer version with the zipper seems to run small. The non-zipper kind with the elastic runs TTs for me. I like that this boot doesn’t come up as high as the elastic kind. Returned because too small and also the left food felt very stretched out compared to the right foot..

Very comfortable with heel. More of a matte as opposed to shiny finish. Good functional and waterproof shoe which can be worn in less than perfect weather.

I ignored reviews that said to order half a size larger than usual and am glad I did -- the length is fine (I generally wear an 8 and got these in an 8). The toe box is much narrower than my other Sorels and there is no "give" to the material so I doubt they will stretch much, but I plan to keep them because they are so badass and practical. Love that they're waterproof but don't look like wellies. I hope that once they're broken in, the front will feel less tight. Otherwise, no complaints.

I love these booties. I have feet problems and wedges are the only heel show I can wear without my feet hurting at the end of the day. These are so comfortable. Fit true to size. I cannot say enough good things about them just a great bootie i want them in every color

I bought these as a birthday gift for my mom and she LOVED them. The only problem, they run small. I was told by an associate that the wedges with zippers all run small. Anyways, exchanging for a bigger size. Not a fan of Sorel's return/exchange process and was less than impressed with the associate on the phone. She kept calling me sweetie in a condescending way and I was not a fan. She kept interrupting me but at the end of the call got what I needed done.

My cousin introduced me to Sorel. I purchased this gorgeous wedge for my trip to NY. I'm happy with them. They fit true to size and went with all my outfits. They are well made. I wore them for the whole week I was visiting. They protected my feet from the rain. Needs some time to break in from the top of the boot to stop digging into the shin. Though I was a little sore at the balls of my feet after walking all day. The wedge height is perfect for my 5'2" stature.

These boots are great! Simple and classy, great for fall dresses. I did order a half size larger which seems to be a new trend with Sorel’s. Normally my boots are size 9 but lately I’ve needed a 9.5. I recommend going a half size larger than you think

Love these boots!! They are a little "high" meaning that my feet get a little sore, but they are not meant to be a flat boot. I would definitely recommend these boots.

This is the perfect go-to pair of boots for your everyday clothing. Sadly, I had to return mine bc they are a smaller fit. I would recommend going up a half size. You'll love these!!

These shoes are beautiful. I got suede in black/dark greenish blue in size 8.5. My size is 8 but it was a bit too small. Half a size larger at 8.5 were exra comfortable at home BUT when I wore them for four days on a visit out of town, being a bit too big and loose (wide), my feet slided back and forth and both small toes were bleeding. Horribly uncomfortable. For the first time ever I travelled with only one pair of shoes and did not have an opportunity to buy a pair while away. Since these are great looking and waterproof I took a chance. Did not pay off. In short, none of the sizes fit properly. Never wore them again after my trip.

The love the look of the boots, but the toe box was tight and the ankle section was to big. Sorry, but they are going back.

I love the style and I have the other black ones and they were not as narrow as these. But are very narrow and squeeze at the toes. If at all there is any possible way, I wish I could find a way to break them in without wearing them....
