They were good do you think they will have them in black that's my favorite color. Black all over and bottom.

I love Sorels. These are so comfortable! I'm not crazy about the style, however. The toe box is too narrow and the length looks a little funny with any socks besides no-shows/peds, which never stay on my feet. Sadly, they're going back - but I'll look for a different style.

These shoes are THE CUTEST. I wanted to love them so much - I love everything about them except the fit. The back of the heel is too high for me and had already started to rub my achilles within a couple of minutes of wearing them around the house so alas I had to return. I hope Sorel makes an adjustment and relaunches these with a lower heel. They are darling and I loved the pattern and material. Sorel brand is consistently my favorite and most well worn shoes.

The shoes are very bright and vibrant. After putting them on there was immediate comfort. The shoes provided the right amount of support for my feet and had enough room inside. They are very durable and left my feet in no pain at all.

I got these shoes because I am an avid runner and was looking for a new brand to use that would not wear out super quick. These shoes have definitely lasted longer than the normal shoes I get. They are super comfortable and the fabric is breathable. The only complaint I have is the heel design it looks like there is a bubble on it. but thats just personal preference.

I picked these up for my wife almost exclusively because of the soft green color as it's her absolute favorite. We hadn't heard of the brand before but after wearing them a bit, my wife says they are extremely comfortable and some of her favorite new shoes!

I'm waiting to get them broken in. When I first put them on they're very comfortable. But then I get sore spots. Very unlike my Sorel boots.

These shoes are very cute and comfortable. They fit true to size. I was nervous about that s as many shoes don't fit shoes to size. I have wide feet and these shoes still work for me. I recommend them

They fit very tight around the ankle even with no show socks. I tried without socks and they felt a little better. I recommend going up a full size from where you normally are to get the best fit. I love the color and design!

These shoes are really cute. They are initially a comfortable fit but after about thirty minutes they are very tight and hot feeling. Hard to wear with socks and hard to wear without. I do have wide feet though so someone with narrow or average feet may find them easier to wear. I had bought them with plans for a lot of walking on a trip but did not end up bringing them because of these issues :( I will only be able to wear out for short errands.

Really love the style but are not as comfortable as others I've bought from Sorel. Needs just a bit more cushion on the plantar area. But don't get me wrong, I LOVE them!!

Cool Aesthetically, typical comfort from Sorel on insole BUT awkward width and squeezed across instep hurting my bones in me feet. I really wanted to love these shoes as much as my 8 other pair of Sorels. I can usually tell people I can walk for miles in this brand This pair however, I could barely walk around my house.

I really like the style of these shoes, I think they are very cute. However, they were too narrow on the top of the foot for me. I even had my sister try them on and they were too narrow for her as well. Otherwise they are perfectly comfortable and stylish, I really enjoy them.

I was very surprised by how wide the shoes were on the back and sides. It looked like I stepped in concrete and it all stuck to the shoe. Having said that, they were very comfortable and very good looking except for the concrete. I would have kept them but the height of the back of the shoe rubbed against my ankle when I walked. Sadly, they are being returned.

This shoe is not exactly to par, the comfort level is for sure there however the design is rather unappealing. The shoes we got were a size 7 however the actual show itself is like a 9 with the extra bulky heal and sole. Kinda weird but if that's the style these days them so be it.

I was really excited to get these sneakers. I love the color and the style. They are very comfortable and easy to get on and off. My only issue is the bottom outer part, the white base that surrounds the shoe, is very wide and very thick. It makes my foot look twice as large. I'm assuming the purpose is so it provides more comfort and support. But on me it just looks almost clown-like. I have very narrow feet so maybe these would look more normal on a wider foot. But it just didn't look right on me. If these had maybe an inch or two less of material around the outside, they would be perfect. Because without all of the excess material, they are so cute and comfortable. The photos don't really capture the thickness well but just to give an idea.

I am just not digging the puffy clown shoe look. It makes the feet look strangely large, far more than it appears in the pic.

Wide awkward looking bottoms when received, they are more bulky then pictured. The fabric and sole cushion is amazing, but returned cause look was too wierd. And beware- you loose out on $ when shipped back cause you have to pay to return.

To be 100% honest, these are not my favorite sneakerswhen putting them on, they kind of pancake out around the bottom of your foot so it really makes your foot look bigger, and I have pretty small feet. Not a big deal though. My problem was that after working out on the treadmill with these at a moderate pace, the outsides of my feet were hurting pretty bad afterwards. This has never happened with any sneaker I own so not sure what the problem is. The color of them are really pretty though and they do seem to be made very good, they just aren't fit for my feet. I wish it could have worked out better
