Nice but my feet hurt in them when worn all day. These are not as comfy as my original shoes from sorrel. The bottom of my feet hurt when I go for walks in them. On my sister, they hurt her ankles.

Love the color scheme and the look of these shoes but the top back heel portion curls in and cuts into my heel. I've worn them quite a few times and it's still like that

Comfortable under my feet, but elastic strap across instep is a little snug. Hopefully this will loosen over time. Otherwise it's a nice looking shoe.

Cute shoes. Not comfortable. Area where you put your foot in is tight and digs into my ankle area

I've been waiting to purchase these shoes for months. Finally decided and a little disappointed. Love the colors and look so the shoe however there is very little support on the top surface of the shoe. Maybe this is to be expected with a shoe without laces however I was surprised and disappointed.

Love the new look but they are not as comfortable as the Kinetic high tops. I'm on my feet 10 to 12 hour days and I've been wearing the high tops with no pain for the past 3 years. With this pair, the past 2 weeks have been a nightmare. They fit well but I've had to wear moleskin on my achilles because the shoe rubs against my skin and it's painful! I gave it 2 weeks to 'break in' but there's been no difference. It's weird since most reviews give the shoe a thumbs up. I wish I could return them. Not sure I can after wearing them several times.

These shoes were a little short on my right foot. Not Sorels problem…mine!

Very cute but made for people with a skinnier foot. My wide foot feels squished on the pinky toe side.

I have very narrow feet and the heel was too loose. Otherwise I thought they were great - really sorry I had to send them back.

I love Sorel shoes but these were not as comfortable as my other sorel sneakers. They dig into my heel pretty bad so I can't wear them for very long.

Makes an already unstable ankle vulnerable. I could tell when I put them on the stability was questionable but they were very comfortable on my knees and back so I tried them around the house. Only after a few hours of wear I turned my ankle. Not worth the comfort in other parts of my body to have my ankles sprained.

I wanted to love these shoes so much but I don't. They are oddly low around the ankle and rubbed the back of my right foot. They also made noises when I walk. They are just too expensive to not be perfect. They are being sent back.

I like them, they are comfy but they squeak every time i take a step. Kind of annoying.

I've worn these sneakers maybe 10-12times and the sock-like upper has holes and tears. Super disappointing, considering I paid full price. I purchased the gold with the black band. Gorgeous but not durable. Buy a half to full size smaller. I normally wear an 8.5 or 9 and the size 8 worked for me.

I wanted to love these slip on sneakers but I couldn't get them to fit right. My usual size of 9.5 allowed my heel to keep slipping as I walked. I tried a size 9 but then is was too snug in the toes. The gold color with black band would be great for fall.

They look great, but I can actually feel the large gap in the middle with every step. I also feel like I'm constantly trying not to roll my foot. The top is not strong enough to keep my foot from slipping off to the side. Keeping because they are cute but will probably not wear as much as I'd hoped.

I was really hoping to love these and live in them. I think they’re cool and love the funky sole but the space between the toe and heel makes them look like shoes you wear to Zumba class. Still in search for the perfect pair of slip on sneakers

Tried both 8 and 7.5;
8 ran a tad bit big— felt great everywhere —EXCEPT heel area was too big and slipped when walking.
7.5 too small in general.
IF you have narrower/smaller heel area (or prone to shoes feeling loose at the heel) then these shoes are most likely not for you. Otherwise, seems like they’d be super comfortable!!

They are super cute, however, they run big and upon exchange, they didn't have my size nor a date they would be back in stock.

I have other Sorels that I love.. These are really good looking shoes but the seem narrow. They really squeeze the outsides of my feet inward making my foot fall asleep in the middle of my walk.

Just got these in, fast shipping. Very cute shoe but you definitely cannot work out in these sneakers. Theyre purely for esthetics.
I ordered my normal sneaker size, even though every review said size up. I have a long thin size 8 foot, these 8's are ok, but my foot slides out with out socks. I wouldnt size up. The lift is nice for lengthening the appearance of shorter legs. But the lift creates a little unbalance in the shoe. I tried a light jog on mildly uneven terrain, and thought Id twist an ankle! I bought these to wear to the gym, but unfortunately theyll just be my "running errands trying not to look bummy" sneakers.
The interior is super soft, and I do love the material, easy to clean.

Oddly I like my shoes a lot, but I bought same pair for mom, she didn't like the fit. ? Also she said The finger straps to pull em on are too small. I use a shoe horn and enjoy the padding under my foot. Worth a try ..
