Not comfortable for anyone with a slightly wider foot. The fit reminds me of a hunter boot.

These shoes are very hard to get on. Also it could be me but they hurt my left foot terribly. I cannot wear them. I've bought other Sorel shoes without any problem. I'm very disappointed in them.

These run even narrower than other Sorel styles. Based on reviews, I ordered a half size up from my normal size in Sorel boots and, aside from the uppers being so tight that my toes overlap, the sides of my feet hang over the edges of the foot beds. There's no way "breaking in" would resolve this. They're also weirdly long for how narrow they are. Nice looking shoe, though.

They look HUGE on my feet and I don't have big feet. Super stiff and uncomfortable. Cute though!

They are very stylish and that is why I ordered them, unfortunately, they were very uncomfortable. They rubbed the back of my heel and my ankle. They also felt like the material is not breathable. I returned them.

These were slightly narrow and the insides had seams and stiffness that made for a very uncomfortable feeling when walking around in them. There was chafing and the feeling of something digging into your feet legs and ankles. I love the style and look but could not endure the discomfort of these boots. I was surprised Sorel missed the mark on these. Usually all their boots are super soft and comfortable.

I loved the style of these boots, and the 2-tone platform was really interesting. I loved the arch support and sole feel, but I could barely fit my foot into them because of how narrow they are. Ugh! I was hoping there would be a mens version I could try out instead, but nope. Please add a wide version of this boot! I would love to rock these the black and gum sole combo is so unique!

These run super narrow. I fished around inside for the hidden cardboard some people have mentioned, but I didn't find any. They just run toe smashingly narrow and generally small. I also found them to be painfully stiff. I literally walked a few steps across my kitchen and said NOPE! They were painful and stiff in a way that I don't think would break in. They also look kind of cheap, like stiff rubber. They are a big no for me.

I love my Sorel Joan of Arctic boots but needed a good solid rubber soled boot for walking in snow and on ice and chose the Sorel Brex Lace boot. When I first tried them on they seemed to fit well and I was happy with the style and the rubber sole. I responded a thumb's up to the immediate, after delivery, Zappo message asking how they fit. However, I had only tried them on at that point. Actually wearing the boots is another matter. Deep heel blisters developed immediately and the heel cabinets inside the boots were built so high that it impacted the bottom of my ankle bones and gradually, painfully, shredded them to open skin. The boots cost so much that with bandaids on all sores and raw wounds, I persevered by wearing them for a week to try to "break them in" , but I give up. I cannot even walk without limping. These boots are not wearable, I am very unhappy with them and I want to return them.

Makes your feet appear abnormally huge and the boot part fits weird and not super comfortable. Not sure if I will ever wear these.

I got these boots in the color sandy tan and black and they are gorgeous BUT only to look at. I usually wear a size 6.5 and I order that, the shows are super narrow. I tried wearing thick socks to break them in even using a hair dryer to help mold them to my feet that did help a little but not so much. As far as functionality these boots aren't the best and for that reason I would have returned them if I hadn't already tried to break them in. I wore these boots out with all of the snow and you have to wear really thick socks, your feet WILL freeze. If you want to get them for the look go ahead but to me the looks is not worth the pain of trying to break them in and the lack of insulation.

ran sooo small. They weren't comfortable at all. I tried my normal size and and size up - rubbed at all the worst spots. Not worth it. Shame since the style is spot on.

Sooo stiff and uncomfortable. It's like they are made of steel. If you will be walking a lot - these are going to shred your feet

Much too narrow. I have 10 other pairs of Sorels w/o this issue. I tried 2 colors and 2 sizes. I do not have wide feet. Sadly I've had to return all pairs. Otherwise, a truly fantastic boot. Very disappointed to have to return.
