Almost perfect lacking traction. I love the look and warmth of these shoes but they can only be worn on dry concrete. Twice after a snow I've worn these out and slipped on the smallest bit of slush. Very disappointing because I bought these to wear instead of clunky boots in cold weather.

So I have well over a dozen sorels; boots, booties, gym shoes, walk around shoes, sandals. I know to buy my size in gym shoe and size up a half size in all boots, booties and sandals. I read the reviews but assumed to size up to my boot size. I was wrong! Size up by a full size of what you normally buy. Love these boots/shoes but had to exchange them. Still annoyed that I am paying the return fee when I have been buying Sorels and know how they fit for 9 years. This policy should change.

All the reviews said to size up one size. I always wear an 8.5 in Sorel so I got a 9.5. They were huge. Then I reordered and got an 8.5. They were too small. I decided not to try the 9 because the boots were just too bulky for me.

I recently received this shoe. It is beautiful. I can see myself wearing this for such a long period of time and particularly bought it for my comfort at work. Big part of my decision making is always reading reviews from those who bought and tried the item already. In the website it is also advised to size up. Please do not size up, buy your regular size. I sized up because of the website advised and the reviews here but the shoes ended up to be so huge on me, and its a pain to return the item then repurchased for I need this shoes ASAP. (Not mentioning the shipping fee deductions.It's Not Free Returns so keep it in mind.I should have just ordered my size 7. My foot is really wide but the style is round toe and the material is very soft that it can stretch.

I read reviews, measured my foot and went up a half size. My foot is AT the end of the shoe. Should've gone up a whole size. Then end is reall narrow, which is interesting because the back is so wide. I wouldn't recommend these for wide feet. It's REALLY a bummer that I have to pay for return shipping as well.

Honestly, I love them! They do run a little small. For example I wear a size 10 and I wish I went with a 10.5. But either way they are very cute! I love how durable they are as well!

I probably have a 16 pair of sorels, all different styles and I am always, ALWAYS 7.5. One of the reasons I love Sorel so much is sizing consistency, I know they'll fit.. as least I thought I did. These shoes are tiny. Felt closer to a 6 than a 7.5. Bummer. Hopefully a fluke and not a new pattern emerging.

Absolutely must size up despite the recommendation to order true to size. I have ordered 6 pairs in past month and none have fit. There is no consistency or quality control.

I bought my usual 9. I wear 8.5 in most shoes and a 9 in running sneeks. The 9 in these were tiny and uncomfortable. bummer since they were just what I was looking for. I liked the cream/gray color combo.

Really wanted to like this shoe. It was narrower than I thought it would be. I don't have particularly narrow feet, was wearing thin socks and ordered a 1/2 size up. The toe box was tighter than I like and they were stiff. Just felt narrow and tight overall. Back they go! So bummed.

The fit and size were perfect with this shoe; however, the overall length was ridiculous!!! Totally looked like a clown shoes. Back to Zappos.

I bought these because I thought they would be stylish and warm. In my opinion I did not find them to be either one. They are very comfortable though and I reflected that in my rating.

They run very small. Not sure if I love them but they serve the purpose I purchased them which is for winter walking.

The shoe's are great for colder weather (which is why I purchased them) so in that aspect 5 stars. However, for ppl who have wide feet I guess size up? I'm a true to size 7.5 in women's shoe. But - I do have wide feet, and these were a bit tight. Another thing is that these heels.. there is definitely excess that hangs off.... i mean I joke to my friends and call them my "moon boots, or basketball shoes" lol. Otherwise they are great.

Nice color, seemed comfortable trying them on. I just cannot get past the extended outsole toward the back of the shoes. I wear an average size (size 8), but in these shoes my feet looked at least two sizes bigger. Not sure if there is a purpose to the extended outsole....just not my style, I guess.

I love SOREL. Unfortunately, some SOREL styles are too narrow for my feet. I tried two sizes of the Kinetic™ RNEGD Caribou and both ended up being too narrow/snug on the sides. This style is cute but I have to return.

This is a well insulated, supportive shoe. The toe box was a tiny bit snug but would have been fine with just a little wear. However, the heel didn't fit well at all and there was no way to tighten sufficiently. Too bad for me because it would have been ideal for winter walking.

This is a beautifully made shoe: high quality, very comfortable and edgy In style, however, as some other reviewers commented it is designed with an elongated heel finish which makes the shoe appear two sizes too long. I ordered a 1/2 size bigger than my regular wear, and the length inside is perfect, but the outside of the shoe looks extremely long. Even though I love the style, I couldn’t get over how large my feet appear in them. I ordered size 8 and I am returning them for this reason.

This is a beautiful shoe and was plenty wide for my D width foot. However, it does have a wedge built into the foot strike area that appears to be for over-pronators. I am very sadly returning it for this reason.

Boot is great for fall walks. keep feet nice and warm. Not crazy about the heel, have trouble with open back stairs, heel of boot catches on step. Dirt also goes on back of heel.

Cute but run about a size small. They already make your feet look kinda big so I won't be keeping them

I felt this shoe was clunky. I ordered half size larger since last time I ordered Sorel it was too tight across my instep but this shoe was huge. The shoe was chunky/clunky that I would have been tripping all over myself when walking.
