The booties are good combo of sturdy for winter weather and looking cute! The wedge is a few inches tall, but not noticeable. The toe is rounded and seems like it will hold up well. I'm impressed that they are waterproof, and think they will provide a great alternative to rainboots during wintery weather.

Love the shoe love the design love that they are waterproof but what i am not really digging it the narrowness of them. They give me a little boost of height which im ok with and they literally look good with everything.

I am literally IN LOVE with these boots! I've been eyeing a pair of Sorels for a long time and finally pulled this trigger on this pair. The wedge is insanely comfortable. I can wear them for a full workday and more with comfort. (I mean I am glad to take them off at the end of the day because it's still a heel, but a really comfortable one!) The color is awesome and matches a lot. They are a little hard to put on, but I don't mind because that means they stay on my feet.
All of that said, they scuff incredibly easily. I've worn them a few times a week for the last month and it looks like I've owned these boots for years. It's highly disappointing considering how expensive they are.

The only problem is that they are tight around the ankles and scrape my skin off. Ill have to wear tall thick socks and see how that goes.

Disappointed in the leather. It scratches and creased immediately.

Beautiful boots, but even the "wide" width was not very wide. It looks/feels more like a regular width shoe.

The size and fit were great. I had a hard time taking them off, though.

Love the shoes but the ankle opening is so narrow. The first time I wore them they chewed up the outer part of my ankles so badly that I haven't been able to wear them again (that was 2 weeks ago). They're only narrow from side to side, not back to front. They're only 1 1/2" across from side to side. I'm hoping I can reshape them otherwise they'll have to go back.

The wide did not seem wide at all. I can generally wear a regular width but ordered these in the wide so I could wear a heavier sock, but they were still tight.

I loved these shoes online and they are even cuter in person. Sadly, I am a wide foot girl and I could get them on but I doubt they would be comfortable long term. This is a solid brand that makes super cute shoes, so I will be on the lookout for their wider sizes.

To be honest I was always a huge and loyal fan of Sorel, despite that I had a wide feet and had size between 11 0r 12. As a result, I was really happy when I found out a new style in wide size. I was trying be patient and wait to the special deal, but I was in rush and purchased the "WOMEN'S JOAN OF ARCTIC WEDGE III CHELSEA WIDE BOOTIE in Hazelnut, Blackened Brown 11 W".
Yesterday, I unpack them and they was really cute, but... my hopes went down because I received them with huge scratches. Otherwise, they was like described:
Color: Hazelnut, Blackened Brown
Size: 11 W, and it felt like 11w when I wear them.
And I would say that they was totally cute, but those scratch
I hope you understand my feelings, because I was a loyal customer plus I paid a full price for them. I will keep them this time because I am going to travel. Also, I hope that the next one that I planning to order in this size will be without scratches.

I have other Sorel boots in 9.5 but these were way too tight. Also, the insoles are very thin and cover just the hard plastic sole. I was hoping for arch support or at least some cushion.

The width is slightly narrower than similar Sorels I have purchased.

It is so hard to gage Sorel shoes from the site videos! The models look like they have pebbles on the shoes or the shoes don't fit, they move incredibly awkwardly as if crashing eggs on their path was the goal. I have tried to disregard this, but I hate returning shoes for something I could have learnt easily on the site. Please fix this!

Very comfortable and stylish however I am not sure what material these boots are made of. I have worn them 3 times to work in an office setting and the top on one of the boots has a rip in it. When that piece comes off (and it will) I won't be able to wear the boots anymore because it will be a very noticeable defect. I ordered a half size up from my regular size. My regular size would have been too tight.

Too narrow for wide feet. Please use width in the size chart for future purchasers.

I was expecting these to look and feel exactly the same as the white pair I got last year. Unfortunately they don't look the same and also there's some issue with how it's built, brings the balance of your feet inward. It doesn't has a side zipper either.

These are gorgeous - the style, the color blocking. The soles are comfortable as well. BUT.... I've tried several sizes in this Joan of Arctic style, and the front of the boot rubs on my ankles - it's painful and creates an indentation; this is after wearing only to try on around a carpeted room. My ankles are not large, so that doesn't seem to be the problem.

I was hoping these would look more like a dark brown. They look more black. They are shiny and cheap looking unlike the other colors I have.

First of all, I LOVE this boot. I have been buying them for YEARS!!!! This latest version has some new modifications. Unfortunately, they no longer work for me. The toe box is narrower than the previous years I have purchased. I have a regular to slightly wider foot which in this years model has made a difference. Also, Sorel has changed the seam location on the front of the boot. Now a seam runs directly ABOVE the bone that can turn into a bunion. If you are prone to developing one...the boot rubs at this location. So painful after about an hour wear. I don't believe having the shoe stretched would have made a difference. Very disappointing....

Very uncomfortable, they hurt my feet. Cannot wear for longer than 8 hours as they pinch the sides of my feet. Very narrow.
