Oh, these boots are just what I wanted. They are warm and adorable, but the fit is way off. I ordered a half size up after reading other reviews. Not long enough. My toes reached the tip with no room. They were also very narrow and I do not take a wide in any shoes. Loved the grey color and the style, but had to return because they did not fit. Thank you to Zappos for your quick service.

I love every single Sorel shoe and bought I have ever bought. This one feels great, is easy to wear and looks....nice but nothing special. Makes my feet look big but I am keeping them more for function than form!

Great boots. Well made. Looked classy. All that said, I was disappointed to have to return them. They were way too narrow for my foot.

These shoes are very warm and should be perfect for walking my dog early in the morning when it is cold and damp. Order up a 1/2 size.

I loved these boots except for the color. They look ivory/cream color but they are actually a little peachy in color.

I wanted to size up 1/2 a size but it wasn't available so I tried 1 whole size up which ended up being too big. Otherwise they felt like they would be a great boot. Soft lined inside.

These are very cozy and comfortable! I am not giving them 5 stars because they are a little slouchy in appearance, not sharp-looking. But in all fairness they are not intended for that. They are very nicely made, and did I mention that they're super comfortable? Great for rainy walks.

I ordered a 1/2 size up and my toe was still touching the end. The heel width felt appropriate, so I am a little concerned that the next 1/2 size up still won't be right.

I typically wear a size 11 in Sorel winter boots (aize 10.5 in Sorel casual boots). These fit very small, both length and wide.

These looked like marshmallows on my feet, which is not the look i was going for so I sent them back. They were quite comfortable and cozy, though.

Cute, comfortable and warm. Problem for me is the boots rub the backs of my ankle/calf. I purchased them to wear for long walks while traveling. I tried them with thick socks to see if the problem of rubbing against the backs of my “cankles” would stop, but with the socks the shoes were too small.

When I purchased they said they run small so I ordered half a size bigger. They are too wide and when I tie them they are scrunched up. Now sure how I feel about them. Should have went with my regular size. Can I still return them?

These are super cute! Fit great and look great for the snow! The only problem is that they aren't tan. I would describe them as having a pale pink overtone. Just not the color I expected. But darling - if you want pale pink.

These were too big on my left foot. Also the arch was a bit too high for me. It unfortunate because I think they're so cute!

A little too big, but the largest problem was that it isn't fitted enough around the ankle enough to help keep the boot in place. My socks kept going down into the boot. Very uncomfortable. Cute boot for looks and the sole seems winter weather appropriate, but poor fit for me.

I’m a solid size 10 women’s, and I wanted to love them but they were too small. I returned for a 10.5, which fit exactly like the 10 and was too small. Returned both and gave up. I liked the style and they felt like they would be warm, but oh well.

I have several other Sorel boots (Glacier II and older style of Tívoli II) but these boots aren’t what I typically expect from Sorel. They still run pretty narrow and I sized up. The issue is there’s so thin on the bottom. I realize I was buying a boot like a tennis shoe, which would be thinner and less clunky for when I needed to run errands, but this boot has even less structure or padding on the bottom than a well made tennis shoe. I recently wore them somewhere where I had to stand on my feet for an hour and they were horrible shoes to wear for that purpose. My feet also get super cold in these that I’d be better off wearing my hiking boots. Unfortunately I’ve worn them so I’m stuck with them and they’ll just sit on a shelf for the most part and the search for a good running around but continues.

My back hurt so bad at the end of the day. I would love to return them and try a different style because I have heard great things about your brand. Is this possible?

Wanted to love these but the first pair i ordered, the suede was damaged and the second pair was a return and was worn. Very disappointed.
