My 3rd pair. Durable, comfortable, practical and cute! I wish Sorel had a similar shoe for spring/summer.

This is my second pair of Sorel. Most run true to size but I purchased 1/2 size up in this style listening to the sale girl.

I ordered a half-size up based on other reviews, and they fit great. Wore them walking all over NYC 3 days in a row. Amazingly comfortable, warm, and water proof.

These boots are amazing. To have a boot that's stylish and functional for winter is terrific. The toe box is somewhat tight, but not to the point of being uncomfortable. My feet are somewhat wide so that would explain the fit. If you have wide feet, order wide width. The gripper sole is functional and fun at the same time. The first time I wore them I walked a great deal, and still they were comfortable. I suspect the more I wear them the more comfortable they will become. So glad I splurged on this purchase at the advice of my daughter who owns the same pair.

These are the most comfortable booties I’ve ever worn. I don’t typically wear a heel and I have a wider foot. I wear a 6.5 or 7 and almost always a 7 in boots. The 7 in these fit perfectly! I’ve worn them everyday since I’ve gotten them.

Love the style! Had to order a half size larger than normal but those fit good once I did that.

These books looked great on, but as other reviewers mentioned, it was narrow in the toe box. To give you an idea, I can normally wear in Nike sneakers a size 7 for a just-right/slightly snug fit, and 7.5 for a little room that's still comfortable for thicker socks. I bought a size 7.5 in these boots, and they fit great in length and the arch support, but they were snug and pressing into the top of my foot and by the little toe of both feet.
I used to wear higher heels years ago, but since I now mainly work from home or can go more casual at the office, I wear very low (1.5" heels or flats) shoes. However, these felt great height-wise where I felt well-supported with the platform wedges, and feel like I will be fine this Chicago winter in snow and on ice - as well as one of my 1.5" or less heeled shoes would feel in terms of ankle-wobbliness, meaning, there was no ankle wobbliness for me. I'm going to try try to buy a half size larger so that these fit because then I think they'll fit perfectly! I'll update my review with my replacements to let you know how they feel.
Overall review:
Length: just right
Width: snug by toe area (both on top and on the outside area by the little toes)
Arch support: just right
Height: just right
Ankle wobbliness while standing/walking: well-supported, no wobble

Love these boots! I have a pair in camel and recently purchased another pair in black. I went up a half size to accommodate thicker socks for lots of walking in cold, rainy weather. Super comfortable and easy to wear. The only issue I experienced was I did have to exchange as the first pair I received had a stuck zipper. The exchange process was quick and easy.

Love these! Super cute and soooo comfortable! Great arch support. If I had to complain about anything, it would be that they are just a bit Narrow and my pinky toes rub.

I have a wider foot. These fit perfectly and are the perfect boot. Out of the box they were more comfortable than just about any shoe I own. Love them

These fit true to size. I bought them in Quarry and could not be happier with the dark gray color since I wear a lot of black and white and denim. I wore them out of the box to a football game and they were so comfortable. They don't feel like you're wearing heels at all. The next day, I walked for several hours through NYC streets and my feet did not bother me one bit. I highly recommend!

I am obsessed with Sorel boots! And these do not disappoint. I’m an 8.5 or 9 in Sorel’s. I got these in an 8.5, and they fit perfectly. Some reviews said the toe box was too tight, but I don’t think so. The heels do slip a little, but I have narrow feet and ankles so that is to be expected. The slip reminds me a little of how my Dansko do. I’ve been wearing medium thickness socks mostly, but I did wear them with my thicker wool socks on a day that was colder and they still fit comfortably.

I have heard great reviews about the Sorel brand but I wasn’t thrilled about the style options. This is the only style, in my opinion, that appeals to me. It is incredibly comfy, versatile and I’m confident it will stand up to any weather conditions. The ash brown is a beautiful grayish brown hue, the picture doesn’t do it justice. Just buy it!

These are cute, but fit a bit larger than other Sorel boots I have tried on/ bought - I normally wear an 8 in Sorel boots (both wedge & winter) and was a 7.5 in these. They're cute and seem pretty comfortable, but I can't comment much on them as I decided to return them for the Joan of Arctic Wedge II Buckle (which I needed an 8 in).

I have these in black and they are beautiful. I initially ordered in Ash Brown and they were beautiful but not quite the brown I was looking for. I exchanged for Velvet Tan and I was super disappointed. They didn’t have a darker toe like they’re pictured in the website and the different color sole makes them look a lot cheaper than they are. I love the fit and the fact that they can work with my wider width so I’m going to exchange for the Ash Brown again.

The shoes ran a smidge small, but very close to TTs. I’m usually a 6 to 6.5, and the 6.5 slipped with regular socks, though they likely would have fit well with thicker socks. For someone with short, athletic legs, the booties came up a bit too high to wear with a skirt, but they were cute with jeans or other pants. Will be trying in the next size down (as I don’t wear thick socks often).

I have this style in another color and absolutely love these boots! I loved them so much, I thought I should order black.
I was not happy with the black- they look like a shiny rain boot. I like the more rugged/worn look. I am returning the black for the quarry-
I really like the quarry - they are a dark gray / almost black.

Super confused as I wear an 8.5 and ordered up as I do with all Sorrell's. Too big. I like the look.

My feet are a little wide, but these were so tight & uncomfy to walk in. Too bad Bc I like the sole for winter. Returned

The hidden wedge turned out to be much higher than believed. It was very deceptive.
