Customer Reviews SOREL Kinetic™ Impact Puffy Zip Waterproof

I bought these boots for the 2023 winter season. LOVED them so much I wore them several times per week, and even made them my go-to for snow-related play. They are stylish, warm and easy to put on and take off. They are as practical for running to the bus stop as they are for pulling a sled up a hill between trips. Then I put them away for the summer. I stored them carefully in a box on a shelf in my closet. Imagine my horror when I pulled them out for use this year only to discover that the boot material is now off-color; the soles are whiter than the upholstery. These now look as wrong as yellow snow. Since I paid full price, which I justified due to the superior construction of this brand, I had hoped to wear them for at least two seasons.

I wore these boots every day on my cruise in Norway and in England! They were perfect!!! No foot pain, great for hiking, and waterproof! Highly recommend!!

I absolutely love love love these boots. Wear them all the time, get lot of compliments. Unfortunately they do have a fatal flaw. I've had them for about 3 months and the fabric on the puffy top just ripped open after I had accidently scraped it on the bottom of a door. I can't see any way to fix, so currently am using duct tape. Definitely detracts from their awesomeness. I'm not sure I can completely recommend, as I had assumed the overall fabric and make would be tougher than that. Just be aware.

Rugged, can't wait to try them out on my next adventure. Did need to size up 1 size, based on other recommendations.

LOVE them! These boots are adorable, very comfortable & lightweight. I get so many compliments.

Stylish, warm and cozy. I love that these boots are waterproof. Due to the thick sole they also make me feel taller and like I can conquer New England winter.

Great show, stability, easy to put on. Would be good to have a Velcro strap to wrap around ankle for more stability.

Just received these today. I absolutely love the color, (bright green) the warmth, the puffer material as it goes perfectly with my puffer vest. My only concern is to me they are a bit wide. I even put an insert in and they are still slipping on the heal. I definitely can't wear any smaller. I will probably keep anyway but still a little on the fence as far as the wide heal.

I love love these boots, but they are way too big. I am a size 8.5, and I bought size 8.5, way too big, sent back and bought size 8, still waayyyy too big! I've worn them a few times in the 3 weeks I've bought them and I really need to return and get a (still!) smaller size, but Sorel's policy won't allow it. Not a happy customer.

This shoe fits snuggly but not uncomfortably and I have a bit of a wide foot. The neck seems like it could rub but I'm not sure since they just arrived. I have two other pairs of SOREL. A fashion bootie sized 7, rain sneaker size 7 1/2 and after reading reviews I bought these in an 8. Probably should've bought 8 1/2 just to ensure no toe rubbing. Hard to describe but the reinforced toe brings the top of the toe box down tightly and another 1/2 size up would alleviate the need to use the very end of the toe box

I love Sorel products but after purchasing these shoes twice and having to return them because they are extra narrow! Sorel in the winter wed also like room for heavy socks! Even without socks these shoes are incredibly narrow!

So comfty. Great you can rinse them off. The color combo is great so you can wear a black or tan coat.

Comfortable perfect fit Nothing but praise Great looking shoe well made and soft I love Sorel s Puff shoes and boots The colors are perfect too

I have numerous Sorel boots and shoes. Some are 8.5s and some are 9s. Bought these in a 9 and they just fit in length. They are a bit snug across the top of the foot and around the ankle with a light to mid-weight ankle sock. If I hadnt gotten them on sale I would return them because I so want a winter shoe and not a winter boot. They do feel a bit clunky. Im hoping by unzipping them a tad bit that the zipper will stay put and it will be a bit more comfortable around my bony but not large ankles. The green color is like a darker army green which I like. Too early to tell how warm they will be.

I just bought these and am obsessed. I cant wait for cooler weather so I can wear them. I had to go up half a size. Theyre warm, super trendy & perfect for Minnesota winters! I went with the black, I really wanted the white but its more of a cream, almost looks dirty.
