Customer Reviews SOREL Explorer™ II Joan

Not slip resistant, poor stitching quality. Order up 1 full size.

I have a pretty normal width foot but these just seemed wide and and loose looking. I couldn't seem to get the laces cinched tight enough. Sent them back.

If you wear an 8 then order a whole size up especially if wearing thicker socks. I ordered a 8.5 and it is still very snug. I love the look, comfort, and style but definitely feel squished in toe-box

These run very small. Ordered a half size up and they were still too small. They were great boots otherwise. It was a bummer to have to send them back.

So cute but no width in the toe box. I have a slightly wider foot in the front. The way these boots fit my foot is very roomy in the heel but squeeze my fore foot and toes. Super bummed because I really like the boots otherwise. I normally wear an 8.5 or 9 in street shoes. I ordered a 9.5 in these and that length worked well with just a little extra room in the length with a thin sock on.

Super cute, but way too small. My husband got me a size 9 (I'm usually an 8 or 8.5) and they were still way small. I have wide-ish feet, but I would have had to get a 10 or higher for these to fit.

I loved this boot but it was too narrow. I have many sorels, all the same size. It was only after they didn't fit that I saw the suggestion that I order up a full size. I did reorder and it was too long. I kept the boots but am kinda bummed. half a size might have worked. But I didn't want to keep paying for shipping.

Run small, no wide enough, I recommend one size up

Boots look good, but I followed the recommendation and went 1/2 size up, even though it was recommended to go up a full shoe size. When I tried them on even the half size was too big. I had to return. I wish there was an option to exchange, because instead of getting the right size I just returned it and did not repurchase. This is the 2nd time that I had to return a pair of Sorel without the option to exchange and ended up not repurchasing.

Purchased because I wanted a warm boot as I drive a bus..very disappointing! They aren't really that warm. I have less expensive boots that are much warmer!

Love this boot. Sadly I had to return. I have a few pair of Sorels, this boot was far more narrow at the front of the shoe compared to my others. I wear a size 10, I sized up to a 10.5, per the reviews. I went to a store and tried on an 11, way to sloppy. I ended up buying the Tivoli IV. They are note as cute as the Explorer boot. But I have been wearing them 2 weeks and they are warm and comfortable.

This is not a rating of function, rather a comment on the color. Purchased the Sage color for my 16 y/o for Christmas, but the color is more gray than sage. Hoping my daughter will still like them.
