Customer Reviews SOREL Ankeny™ II Hiker WP

I mostly love these boots. They have a wide toe box and are very comfortable to walk around in. I bought these boots specifically for a trip to Ireland. While walking around the city and muddy, boggy areas these shoes were great. The problem comes when you step on any smooth rock surface. They are as slick as skates. I'm a 40 year old wrestling coach. I hike alot and I slipped and fell flat on two different occasions. So fair warning be very careful of the surface that you step on while wearing these boots. If your trail has smooth rocks in the path or a beautiful rock Irish coast, you're going to slip at somepoint.

I like these boots. They are minimal and I can feel my feet on the ground. I don't like big bulky over cushiony boots. I also workout in Chucks. Same feel for hiking and hunting.

I have always enjoyed this style of Sorel. I find them to be durable, comfortable, and flexible. However, this specific pair has given me some sort of bruising under my ankle.

The sizing is slight small but you probably dont need a size up. They are comfortable and good for working all day in an office.

You will need to insert some form of additional sole cushioning. Urban hikers or snow pack use at best.

Return Fee Not Happen and will not order from this company again

I like how these look, but they are not fully lined for comfort and warmth - just at the top - and they are very very slippery on indoor floors. Very disappointed with this purchase.

Not a Hiking Boot. As the other reviews have shown, the sole is flimsy and thin. Makes for a lightweight boot but not good support or ankle/foot protection. Sole is flimsier than my wife's crocs. I do not think they will hold up to normal work use around my yard but time will tell.

Very little heel cushion and cushioning overall, sole is super flimsy and you can feel rocks and uneven surfaces through it. I would say this is much more a walk around the city not the woods boot.

Sorel has trouble getting their sizes correct. I have a black pair of size 12 and they fit great but the 2nd pair size 12 I ordered was to small, not the same as the pair I already have. After 2 failed attempts I am done.
