I bought these shoes because I was going on a girls weekend and they were calling for snow. I'm from the south, so we are not used to snow. I wanted something warm and waterproof but also stylish. I've never bought Sorel brand before and really hesitated spending the money for something I wasn't going to wear often, but I did. WOWthey are so comfortable. I have bad sciatica pain and have to get new tennis shoes for work every 3 months or my back will start hurting. We walked around in the snow off and on all day, up and down hills in these boots and my back never bothered me and my feet stayed warm and dry. Meanwhile, my friend was not wearing sorel boots and she kept complaining her feet were cold. I am now researching sorel sneakers to wear to work. I really hope that the sneakers are just as comfortable as these boots. I am normally a 9.5 in most shoes (except athletic tennis shoes, but I got a 10 in these boots so that I would be able to wear thicker socks. I probably could have gone down to a 9.5, but didn't want them to be too tight with thick socks. I am now a HUGE fan of this brand.

The fit is great for me. I have a slender foot and usually wear an 8 in all shoes but heels. I ordered a size 8 and it fit perfect! Color is as pictured.

I love these boots, they are super cute, nice and warm and very comfortable. I normally wear an 8 but I got an 8.5 so I could wear extra thick/warm socks but I don’t think extra socks are necessary.

These fit well. I get a size 9 in boots so that I can wear thick socks. I returned them because I was sent a black pair instead of gray. I still might reorder and get the gray color.

These boots are cozy, stylish and practical! They were perfect for our ski trip to Deer Valley and kept my feet so very warm. I'm typically an 8, but sized up to an 8 1/2 for an ideal fit.

I might be obsessed with these precious teddy bear boots. They are so comfortable and lightweight. It really feels like you're wearing a great pair of high tops, not winter boots. The first day I wore them I had questions and compliments from almost everyone I passed. I sized up half a size after reading others' comments, but I could have easily fit into my normal size.

I've been looking for a casual winter boot that's not a snow bootand I found them!
My new fave winter sna-boots or boot-neakers! They're super comfy and really feel like a sneaker but love the high-top of the boot. They're great for the Jersey winter weather when it's cold but not snowing. They look great with leggings and jeans!

These are the perfect casual winter boots for when it's not too wet and snowy outside! Even if it is a little wet, the soles are legit for nothing too crazy. Love the cozy neutral feel. I've gotten lots of compliments already.

These are super cute. Reminds me of a teddy bear. They do run a full size small so order up. Haven’t worn them yet but the other ones I have in this same style just not “cozy” are comfortable and wear well.

I ordered these in the size I normally buy Sorel boots in and they fit perfect. They are comfortable and warm without being too hot. I get stopped in them often because they are so cute. Highly recommend.

I ordered these in my usual Sorel boot size which is a 8.5 and they fit perfect with a medium weight sock. They are so cute! I got the fawn pair and the white/ black pair. Cozy and warm.

So cute and so cozy! I went up a half size from my normal size so I could wear thicker socks if need, They have good support. I think my feet will be fine if I needed to wear these for an extended time. I'm thinking of getting another color!

Based on mixed reviews re sizing I ordered two pairs. I am usually a 6, but the 6.5 was definitely the better fit. I own many pairs of Sorels, and most of them are a size 6, with a few exceptions and this was one of them. Great, fun boots. Love them!

These are very cozy and comfortable - great to wear with jeans and a cozy fleece sweater. I was torn between the fawn (light brown) and the black, and ended up with the fawn. I may go back and get the black as well. These are my new go-to shoes for walking the dog on a chilly day.

Ultra warm and comfortable! Runs very narrow and a little small overall. I went up a full size.

I bought these boots for my niece. She wears a 10 medium, but I ordered a 10.5 medium based on Zappos' recommendation. The style is nice and the width is perfect. However, my niece felt the boot was a little short so she exchanged for an 11 medium. She also said the inside is soft and comfortable. Thanks, Zappos for making the exchange easy.

Super cut and very warm but run a little small. Luckily a warmer sock is not needed or they would not fit.

I ordered a pair of Explorer Joan II in the Delta Fawn size 8 (I ordered a 1/2 size bigger based on comments) and one of the laces is missing the aglet. I did not want to put this out on public forum, but for what I paid for these boots, I was disappointed that the quality control wasn't a little better. If the lace ever comes out, there is not way to thread it back through the lacing eyelet as they are suede and 1/2" thick. What can you do for me? I love the boots for look, comfort and warmth.

I love these so much but they do lack for structure a little bit. Even though they're the right size it still feels like my foot slides around a bit too much, even with big fuzzy socks on! I was hoping to wear them walking about the city, but with my foot sliding around a bit too much I feel at risk of blisters.

Although the boots were very attractive, they felt small in the toe box. I don't know if a larger size would have helped, or not. It also seemed like it took alot of tugging to get them on. Again, I don't know if a larger size would have helped with that.
