Customer Reviews SOREL Madson™ II Chukka Waterproof

Great fit and comfortable, love the color and overall design of the boot and highly functional. Wear them casually for the most part. The sole on these boots is incredible...it never seems to wear despite wearing them for walks all over the place.

Look great and feel great! They were a wonderful addition to my wardrobe!

Received these Christmas of 2022. The boot looks great but quality is questionable. The sole of one of the boots is separating from the rest of the show. For the price didnt expect it to happen so quick. Have other brands of boots where this has never happened.

These took a good solid day or two to break in. Not accustomed to that, but they're perfect fit for what I bought them for. I'm an architect who is on jobsites often, so I needed something that looked right with dress pants but more durable than dress shoes. Absolutely love them!

Laces are thin and I can tell won't last long. Love the shoes, very comfortable and look great though!

I purchased a pair over two years ago and I loved them so much I recently purchased two additional pairs. What I noticed is that the boots have become observably narrower in the intervening year-plus. It isn't a deal-breaker, since the leather will stretch and fit to the foot. However, the initial comfort level of the newer boots is substantially less than the older models. I will note that I don't have a wide foot (never worn wide fit in my life), but I do enjoy wider toe boxes and tend to wear boots with thicker socks. That is less of an option with the newer models.

Fit well, comfortable. the waterproof leather looks a little synthetic.

I've had these boots for over two years now and still love them. The more weathered they get the better they look and the comfort level is still there. I docked it a star because finding laces that fit and look the same is all but impossible and they are fraying badly at this point. Sorel inexplicably refuses to carry replacement laces and can't even direct you to the source for the laces they buy. You're left looking all over the internet trying to find a matching lace in the right length and diameter which is not easy. These laces are 3mm wide and almost all the boot laces out there are 4mm and thicker. And almost no one carries one that 46" long so you're looking for one's slightly longer or shorter to make do. This is extremely frustrating and easily fixable, if only Sorel cared enough about its customers to do so.

Very comfortable and light weight. True to size. Boot is much darker than picture.

Great shoes. Only issue for me is that you need to undo the laces quite a bit to put them on and there's nothing to grab onto when you are trying to get your foot in. The plus for me is that they are great waterproof shoes.

Color appeared more grey in the online photos. Would really like a gery/black color option on this boot.

Slightly narrow but true to size otherwise, good fit, and VERY comfortable. I wore to a convention and was on my feet all day yesterday.

Great Boots, absolutely love them and look very trendy even with dress pants, reviews recommend to buy half a number smaller as they run a bit larger size, but was not my case, I bought mine onmy number and they fit OK

I bought one for $120 2.5 years ago. They were so comfortable. i walk about 20 miles a week in them. I love that theyre waterproof for maybe the bottom 2+ inches. People are surprised i walk in big puddles but that's because I can. Only once has water gotten in but I did kick the puddle. They were so comfortable(I did change out the inserts but I do that on all my boots) and I do wear Darn Tou** socks which are the best socks in the world. Coupled with the best boot in the world, I can take on anything. I can literally go to work selling real estate, to hiking, to my daily walks in the same boot. Being so comfortable, I bought myself 2 other pairs. Almost 3 years later, I'm still on my first pair. Love it! Every 6-12 months or so, I do apply some leather conditioner just to restore the look since I do also work on real estate development projects and they get dirty, muddy and scuffed up. They do go on sale often so load up

Comfortable and warm. Light weight, not really bulky at all. Good purchase for the sale price. I definitely would of chose a darker color, the light tan i bought has that Timberland work boot look. However very light weight, comfortable wether standing or walking long hours. I wore them while sledding feet never got cold.

I bought a pair maybe five years ago. Theyve been my favorite. Ive worn them pretty hard. Theyre comfortable and stylish, but also hold up really well against water. Only snag was that there was a bit of sole separation at the toe early on but it hasnt gotten worse since. Still five stars.

Very nicely built and comfortable. I was looking for a nice weatherproof boot that was stylish and uninsulated. Like others have said, these run large and I would size down a half size if you dont plan on wearing thick socks with them. I am a size 14 with a regular width (Nike running shoes in a regular width fit me perfectly) and I wish I could get a 13.5. I tried both a 13 and 14 which the 13 was just a little too tight and the 14 is just a little too big and settled on the 14. Overall Im very pleased with these boots and are worth the money!

Awesome shoes! I bought three pairs out of a gear they might someday be discontinued

Although everything was fine, I feel very uncomfortable on my right feet, I don't feel comfortable. It seems that the right boot came wider than the left, and she is constantly annoying. Sadly I have already used them because otherwise I would return them but I feel that they sent me the defective right note.

Really comfortable. I was skeptical at first thinking they may be stiff, but after trying them a few days, they are remarkably supple and easy to walk in. Waterproof and sturdy, I would definitely recommend them.

Bought these for my husband so he has a second pair besides his Sorels from last season, which have pretty much been his go-to daily work shoes. He works in a business casual office environment, but we live in the northeast, so even the walk from the parking garage to the office entrance can be treacherous. He loves these boots and has already worn them multiple times. They have great traction and look good with chinos and sweaters, polos, and button-downs. Id get them in another color if they were still available in his size! Speaking of, he normally wears a 12 but I got 11.5 as recommended and they fit well.
