Customer Reviews SOREL Explorer Next™ Joan Waterproof

I have narrow feet but wanted to try these shoes as finding something that is not stiff and light weight and narrow is almost impossible. I put a thick inter sole in and wear heavy wool socks and they fit my feet pretty well. Keeps my feet nice and warm even in the cold wind. (my feet are ALWAYS cold as I have raynaud's in my hands and feet). Good quality and good traction.

These are super cute! I am a bit short however, so the height sat just a tad too tall for me, compared to the other style I bought (also Sorel) and love. I love the touch of sparkle in the front of the boot, they feel like magic winter boots!

I found it was a little higher than I was comfortable with.

I love these and they are comfortable but they are just too big/wide in the ankles. The 7 was a little snug on me and the 7.5 fit great in the length but was just way too big/roomy/wide through the ankle. I do have super skinny legs but other boots just fit better which is a bummer because they are a great price and such great color options. I love the olive with grey.

I have other Sorel boots but these were too narrow. I wanted to love them because they are great looking but they fit like a size Narrow would fit.

I sized up but they are too narrow. I always wear a medium width. These are narrow.

First off, they're definitely stylish. However, they run a bit small—I had to go half a size up because they were tight lengthwise. But even then, they're pretty narrow. Design-wise, they're cute and seem to go with a lot of different outfits, which I love. But, and it's a big but, they're not the best when it comes to fit around the ankle. They feel loose and sloppy, which means they're not the most stable or comfortable if you're planning on doing a lot of walking. And I found they don't offer much support, which was a letdown for me since I need that in a boot.

As others have commented, these are on the narrow size, especially in the toe box, even when I went a half size up. Yet it also had to pull the laces very tight to get them to fit properly around my ankle. I wanted to like them, but they didn't work for my foot. Very little arch support but they have removable insoles so you can add your own.

The shaft is higher than I want. Otherwise it is a nice looking boot.

these boots are cute, but the sizing runs VERY small in both length and width. Even sizing up didn't help with the width issue.

super cute style but felt too wide (i do have slightly narrow feet but never had a problem with shoes feeling too wide.

Sizing is larger than previous versions so if you have ordered in the past size down. I ordered a 8.5 like my other two pairs and it was way too big. Held them sole to sole and it was definitely longer and wider. Going to try an 8 and see if that is better.

I was excited to get these for Chicago’s cold cold cold days They are certainly cute. But so so wide. And people commented that they were narrow. I was sadly surprised After wearing them for a while my feet sloshed around in them and actually didn’t provide the warmth I expected. I would have returned the but needed them on a bitter cold night
