These were cute enough but super narrow. As soon as I put my foot in them I knew I couldn't wear them for even an hour. They have to go back.

If you have wide feet, this is not for you. I have small feet but it still feel tight.

Sadly these were too narrow for me to keep even going up a 1/2 & whole size. Would love to buy these next year assuming Sorel fixes the width.

Super cute but unfortunately too narrow. Even with sizing up like previous reviews suggest they were far too narrow.

Shoe runs on the smaller size so definitely consider sizing up at least half a size. It is very narrow, not fitted for the wide foot.

I ordered a 9 and 9.5. The 9 was way too small across the toe box. The 9.5 fit across the toe box but the heel slipped and there was no way to tighten in the ankle area like regular hiking boots. These are comfortable and would have been ideal for me otherwise.

I bought a full size up from my usual. The length was OK but the toe box and heel were both too narrow. No wide size is available and sizing up any further for more width would make the shoe too long for me, so I returned it. I wanted this shoe for warmth, not style. It's not a beauty, but all winter sneakers are ugly IMO.

So disappointed. Loved the look but they are incredibly narrow! Even a half size bigger and thin socks didn't work. Warning they make you pay for return shipping. I should have read more reviews as sizing was a common concern.

These boots are so cute. I really wanted to keep them but I had to return them as they were super narrow in the toe box area. I don't have a wide foot either. I hope you adjust your sizing so most people can wear your boots.

I was so excited about these shoes. Due to popularity, I waited for a month until my size was available. Upon getting my shoes they were a bit scratched up. Also, they run fairly small, and they did not fit. *So I suggest sizing up* Now they are unavailable. I was told I have to wait until the fall to exchange them for the correct size.

Cute style!! The laces on the tan color way seem like a bit of a mismatch... they have a bit of a pink hue that doesn't match any other color on the boot - oops. Had to buy replacement laces in a closer match color.

I usually wear a size 10, but ordered a 10.5 based on the reviews. They are too big. The shoe is narrow in the toe box, but it does start to stretch out after wearing them, so the extra sizing is awkward/long/doesn't help with the narrowness. They are also gappy and loose around my ankle. Nicely made and high quality. They look cool. But the inside of the shoe is just weirdly shaped and doesn't fit the foot well.

I ordered these boots and very disappointed with how small and narrow they run. I wear a 6 and have wide feet. After reading the reviews I ordered a 6.5 and they are WAY too small. They fit like a 5. I would have to order 2 sizes up to get these to fit in width and then would be way too long. A little puzzling as at the same time I ordered a Sorel Out N About in a 6.5 and they are actually a bit big even with a thick sock and Sorel Harlow Cozy in a 6.5 and it fits great. Not sure why they are making this boot so narrow and disappointing as out of the 3 boots this is the one I really wanted to keep. Returning.

I normally wear a 9. I ordered a 9.5 which was fine for the length but they are too narrow. Hated to return them but they just wont work.

I ordered three sizes in this shoe, needing to love it for walking on snowy hills/roads. The toe box was really tight, even going up in size. Returned them unfortunately.

Way to small. I normally take a 10, so I ordered a 10.5 thinking I'd wear a thick sock in the winter. 10.5 was stuck like glue to my foot, so I returned and ordered an 11. Still ridiculously narrow. Will try see if it comes in wide. Such a cute shoe, but way off on sizing.

I have these from last year in Quarry/size 8 and love them. I bought them again this year in black/8 and they are way too small and super narrow. I don’t even believe the 8.5 would work because they are that narrow. It’s crazy and disappointing to me that they could run so differently. I have been stalking these for months. So bummed!!

The olive color is a lot darker in person and the gray wool is a lot lighter.

I read the reviews about the boots being too narrow so I sized up one full size and they were still too narrow. I was surprised by the fact that except for being too narrow they fit well otherwise so I would say they run small.

I want to love these shoes but I just can't. I tried them on and walked around the house 4 times and just can't get over the feel on a small pebble right on the outside edge of the pad of the foot on each side. Perhaps they are just too narrow for me. It's not painful but noticeable to me. I didn't fill it as much going 1/2 size up but then they were much to long. SO cute but they have to go back. Grateful Zappos gave me the chance to try.

Great shoe, significantly too small though. Had to return and now they are completely sold out. Can't find the next size anywhere
