I fell in love with these boots (in Black) when I first saw them and I finally found them on Amazon. When I tried them on at home for the first time, they were terribly uncomfortable. I saw the same style in a local dept store (but in a different colorway) while out shopping and tried them on and found that pair to be very comfortable. So, unfortunately, I had to send them back due to manufacturer’s defect. I was sad to not have them, especially in this weather! (I’m in MD in the middle of our blizzard!). If they had fit the same way the one’s in the dept store did, I would surely have kept them. I think Sorel needs to do better quality control.

I bought this boot here on Amazon in December 09. This is my first winter in New England and being from California I was not looking forward to the cold that I knew was coming. This boot worked great for me when I was out shoveling the snow. My feet were warm and I love the faux fur on the top, it makes it less like a work boot. It was pretty close to my size. I’ve read in other reviews on how it was big, but my toe was close to the edge. I was worried that I would actually have to go even larger than a size 11, but after a couple of minutes it was fine. I think it’s because it turns up in the front that it did that.
At first wore only one pair of socks, but I read in other reviews that with the Sorel brand of boot, you should wear two pairs (one cotton with wool over). Even with both socks, it was still very comfortable. I really became a fan when after having about 6 inches of snow fall, it started to rain…making the most awful slush that I have ever seen. These boots rose to the occasion. My feet were dry and warm…it handled the job great. Fair warning though, the boots are a bit stiff and at times does make for a bit awkward to walk and drive. Other than that…they are totally awesome!

I am so surprised to see all these good reviews for this product. It is a bit stiff and fits like a ski boot. However, there is a plastic casing inside which have cut into the back of my ankles badly. These boots hurt!!

I just returned from a ski trip and these boots were great. They were brand new but very comfy and kept my feet warm in absolute blizzard conditions. The big decision seems to be sizing. I am always an 8 and never vary from that, but I took the advise of reviews and ordered down to a 7. The 7 fit but my toes were touching the end of the shoe and I was afraid it would rub if I wore them for any time. The 7 also rubbed the back of my heel. I had to go elsewhere to find an 8 (sold out)and that one fit great. I didn’t find it run big at all. I was able to wear one thin pair of socks and one very thick wool pair with comfort. The larger size also didn’t rub my heel either. I think the thick socks helped and I did use some band-aids to play it safe but I wore them very long and no problems what so ever. For me, I found they fit true to size with enough extra room to fit thick socks. I also was able to get my pants and underlayer tucked into them with comfort. For those pondering size, the only advice I can give on sizing is to just order both and keep the one that fits best since you will probably have these for many years.

I like the boots they look great..a little uncomfortable at the ankle..they don’t bend really well there. I thought them true to size and very warm!
