Sorel Bottes Joan OF Arctic WP, 1855131010

Really warm and well insulated boots that also look cute. Sizing is a little off though - I got a size 5 and it was very snug yet my foot was sliding forward and my toe was jamming against the front of the toe chamber. However I was able to fix this by buying some shearling inners. This kept my foot in the right place and also kept them warm!

Boots are great especially in thd snow keep my feet nice and dry!

I love these boots, they’re so comfortable and warm and I do like the look, but people should realise if they have even remotely developed calf muscles, the faux fur trim will not meet at the front of the boot the way it does in the model photos. You can see what I mean in one of the other reviewer’s photos—there’s a gap at the front because there is no faux fur on the tongue of the boot and the side bits do not extend enough to go around unless you have *very* *very* thin legs. I’ve decided to just accept it as I like the boots otherwise, but I would’ve preferred the faux fur go all the way around (my last boots were Timberland and they did this by having a section of the lining on the tongue, which was perfect.) Still a lovely pair of boots, just not quite perfect. Also, noticed some people say they’re tricky to take on and off—I haven’t had any trouble, you just need to make sure you undo the laces enough, especially before they’ve broken in.

These boots are quite tight, I bought a 5 in another pair of Sorel boots and they are massive. It’s hit and miss with sizing but I’ve started going for a 4 in some shoes which I know are big like Skechers and Dr Marten but the size 5 in these is a bit snug if I want to wear socks so def size up. They are so warm unless I’m skiing which I don’t they will be fine to wear without socks. They are so comfortable I can’t take them off.

Love these boots. I'm a school crossing warden so stand outside in all weathers. Keep my feet warm and dry, a little heavy but not uncomfortable.
