Customer Reviews SOREL Whitney™ II Short Lace Waterproof

Like a puffer coat for the feet. I have walked miles in these without any discomfort. These are not rigid or clunky like a boot. They feel more like an insulated sneaker. Warmer and more comfortable than other Sorel boots I've had in the past, including the Joan of Arctic. Also, I found the boots TTS. My normal 9.5 was roomy enough for winter socks.

I bought these in November of 2022 for a trip to the Alps in December of 2022. I was very worried about not liking them, and that they wouldn't be warm. These boots are great. I'm from the south, and have never seen so much snow before, so warm and dry feet were a huge concern of mine. After muuuchhh research, I finally settled on these. When I was in the snow, I wore a pair of regular semi-thick socks & was in about 2 feet of powdery snow for a couple hours. These boots kept my feet VERY warm & VERY dry!!! The only thing I will say about them, was that there was very little traction so I would suggest spikes for very thick snow (my case) and especially for ice (obviously). I also wore these hiking in about 4 - 6 inches of snow and did not have any issues (even with traction). I would for sure recommend these to someone who is going to be in thick snow, or anyone who needs a good winter boot. However, I did not use these in "slushy" snow, but they did really well for my trip. & I wore these boots a ton!

Love these! So comfy and warm! They're perfect for prolonged outside wear. As a postal worker these keep my feet dry and warm at all times.

Easy on/off and lightweight but definitely NOT waterproof

I ordered these in both a size 5 and 6 based upon the recommendations to size up. I have slim narrow feet, and whilst the 5 fit perfectly fine they are quite snug in the toe area. I've decided to go for the size 6, so I can comfortably wear very thick socks underneath or double up on slightly thinner ones in really cold temperatures. I'm delighted, they're just so warm and, so far, seems very comfortable! One very happy customer. Thanks Sorel

Love this boot. Easy to put on, tad snug. I love it even with this socks it's cozy.

I bought these boots for my morning walks to keep my feet warm on cold days. It does the job well! They are comfy, waterproof, and good in both rain and snow. I bought a half size up to accommodate thick socks. Happy with this purchase.

It has become my go-to pair of winter boots. It's lightweight and waterproof for the snow here in the Midwest. It's is snug at first. I went half size up and I thought about returning it for a bigger size but after a few wears it fit just right.

The shoes were comfortable and the person who wrote the review to buy one size larger than I normally wear was absolutely correct for me.

Runs a little small so I would size up. They are so light and warm!

I just bought these for a transition from fall to winter style boot since they are waterproof and insulated. They are comfier than I expected them to be! The foam bottom makes for all day wear and walking! I also love the olive green color- compliments my black coat.. I got an 8.5 and that is what I usually get, so I would say these are true to size. Even with a thicker sock. they fit

I bought these in a 10, a size up from my usual size, in hopes that they would be wide enough. Unfortunately they were still too narrow. My foot is about 3.8" at the widest part and the size 10 appeared to be about 3.5" at the widest part (measured from inside the boot.)

I've had these for just over a year, and the interior lining completely ripped on the left boot. So disappointed that these didn't hold up, and not the quality I expected from Sorel. I loved them for daily winter dog walks in Minnesota up until that point! They are narrow through the toes, but a warm and comfortable boot.

Unfortunately for me these are narrow in the toe box and will not work for my feet. They're good looking boots, soft and warm inside. I wish there were wide sizes but will have to send these back.

I really hate returning the boots as they are just so stylish, warm and of top quality. However the dealbreaker is the wide toe area, which is not detrimental to hurt my toes but would be uncomfortable if I go for highly intensive exercise. I would suggest Sorel to consider making wide like their affiliate Columbia. I have no issues fitting into Columbia winter boots and have owned 4!
