February 18, 2011

love these boots. but be careful, they run big! it was a bit of an inconvenience as I had to order a smaller size. I'm always always always a size 8, I'm a size 7 in these boots!

Great Snowboots
February 17, 2011

These are my first pair of Sorel's and I am so happy with them. They're very warm and perform well in blizzard like conditions. They are also very stylish. I have recieved a lot of compliments on them already.

Great purchase

These boots are super stylish, yet super functional and warm. I love them and searched very hard to find boots like these. They are great for after ski and for night time wear around the ski town.

Beautiful looks but watch out for the sizing
February 09, 2011

After reading the other reviews I was concerned about the fit of this boot and what size to order. It does run big however it does not run wide. I have a relatively normal width of foot and do not normally have problems with width in a shoe but I found this boot narrow across the ball of my foot but it had plenty of length and room elsewhere. The back above the heel is a bit stiff, I haven't worn them a massive amount yet so I'm hoping this will break in. It will be concerning if it doesn't. The boots do however look fantastic and very cute for a snow boot. They are big though in appearance. I ordered an 8 and they do look huge, but still cute. Maybe a concern if you have big feet normally.

Good warm shoe. Not very stylish but very warm. The shoe is heavy so you get a bit of a workout when wearing them but your feet wont be cold! Would recommend this shoe for warmth

Great Purchase!!

I love these boots! They are warm, stylish and keep my feet nice and dry. I usually wear a size 9.5 and after reading the other reviews, i decided to go down a size and ordered a size 9! They fit perfect and i am glad i didn't go up to a 10 for they would have been way too big. Glad i made these awesome boots my everyday winter boots for snowy Michigan winters!

Worthwhile purchase
February 01, 2011

After 2 blizzards last year, I wasn't messing around this winter. I was on a mission to buy comfortable, stylish and functional snow boots. These boots were the perfect choice! They are extremely functional - my feet are always warm and dry and walking through mounds of snow is no problem at all. They run a bit wide so wearing thicker socks hasn't been a problem. I was concerned about lacing them up because I have wide calves but that has not been an issue at all. The lace ups are easy to manage and adjustable to any size you are. And I always get compliments!!! I definitely would (and have) recommend these to a friend!

I am so pleased with this boot! They are much more attractive in person than the pictures on the site. Have had instant compliments each time I wear them. Very warm and comfortable. The size was true. Thank you for a quality product.

Love the boots

Love these boots. I like that they are waterproof at the bottom (great for walking in the sloppy snow), but leather and lace up at top. They are very comfortable and very cute! I get lots of great compliments on them!

Cute Cute Cute!
January 10, 2011

Love the boots! Fit great. Feel super warm! Read reviews before I bought them and they had the cold ratings I wanted. The are very stylish and I have already had a TON of compliments. The are just the right height as well just about 2 inches below the knee.

Found that boot runs slighly large-length not width. Great to find a boot this warm and durable that looks so nice!! Standing up well to MN winters!!

Can't wait for snow!
January 06, 2011

I just recently moved from Florida to an area that will be getting some snow and after looking around I decided to give these boots a try because they seemed like a great deal at a great price. I love them! They look expensive and like they will hold up for years. They are also super warm, warmer than my Uggs. The only down-side is that the sole of the shoe does not give very much when walking, so I kinda feel like I am "stomping" around. Either way, it seems like after I wear them a few times this won't happen anymore and despite this, they are still super comfortable. I usually wear a 7 in Uggs and an 8 fits perfectly in these!

Great Boots... wish they made half sizes.
January 03, 2011

Great boots...very warm. I wear a 6 1/2 and upon reading reviews ordered a 6. Mistake! Winter boots are meant to be worn with warm thick socks and I think the other reviews were based on thinner socks. So I returned the size 6 and ordered a 7. Much better!! Order a 1/2 size up and wear the boots with winter socks and you will be toasty warm and uber comfortable!

Great Boots, and Cute too
December 13, 2010

I have enjoyed these boots so far, from wearing them around town in the snow, to going to the forest to get a Christmas tree. My feet are warm and dry. Everyone that sees them says they look nice. I think they are sturdy, comfortable, and will last for a while. I wear size 8 shoes, and these fit perfect in an 8.

Great snow boot
December 11, 2010

These are cute, comfortable and worth every penny! Should own a pair in every color GREAT IN SNOW!

Do it.
December 10, 2010

Fit: Runs a wee bit large. I'm usually a 6 and the 6 was fine but I could've gone a half size down. Comfort: Pretty comfortable (and warm!) for the most part. After a long day of walking, the back started rubbing on my achilles but it wasn't unbearable. The material is durable so it's a little stiff to begin with. I just need to break it in a little more. Looks: Very cute and versatile. Looks good with jeans, sweats, play pants, etc. Buy these boots!

Stylish & Worth It
December 09, 2010

My sister in-law recommened these boots to me. They are the most stylish snow boots I've ever seen. I get a lot of compliments when I wear them.

Wisconsinites need these!
December 03, 2010

I have always worn Sorels because they are quality boots, and this style is top-notch! Love the look, enjoy the warmth-thanks Altrec!

Great boot, a bit wide
November 21, 2010

I purchased these boots to get through winters in Minnesota. They're incredibly warm and appear to be very water resistant. Sorel definitely makes high quality boots for the money. On warmer rainy days, I prefer wearing a pair of Hunter tall boots. I purchased both pairs in a size 10, and the Sorels are a bit shorter than the Hunters and much wider in the foot, so I feel a bit more kludgy walking in them.

These boots are GREAT!
November 19, 2010

Love these boots! Cute cute cute! Warm and dry! Goodbye Uggs! They do run a bit wide, they are a chunky boot but still comfortable.

Girlie Sorels!
November 11, 2010

I love my older Sorels wear them almost daily in the winter as they have a good sole are waterproof and warm and really indestructible. These are all of that but much cuter with a girlie edge. They do tend to run a little small as I am almost always a nine in most shoes and these are almost to small but to size up to ten I think would make them a little sloppy. Great boot choice if you spend a lot of time outside in cold, snowy, icy and wet weather.

Best Boots I've Ever Owned!
October 16, 2010

I LOVE these boots! So very warm and cozy- and absolutely adoreable! They do run at least a half size big(I usually wear an 8.5 in most brands & the 8 fit comfortably with room for thick socks). The overall size(a chunkier boot) may take a little getting used to for some people, but I think it's what makes them so cute & stylish. Perfect for New England winters!

Great Boots!

These boots are super cute! They are warm when walking through the snow. I have received many compliments on them!

No Quarrels with my new Sorels!
September 16, 2010

I live in the Northeastern US, and I need warm, waterproof boots that keep me comfortable and dry while still looking attractive. I absolutely love my new Sorel "Joan of Arctic" boots--they are practical and cute (not to mention the perfect height), and I will wear them everywhere from Steeler football games to hikes around my favorite local lake with my two labs! My biggest challenge will be wrestling the boots away from my Ugg-wearing, teenage daughter who already commented that the Joan of Artics are "totally adorable with those funky, fur liners!"

These boots are awesome winter boots. Cute, water & weatherproof, so very fun to wear!!

Love the Boots!
June 01, 2010

These boots are awesome! I have been wanting these boots for awhile but so I went to various websites to read as many reviews as possible. They are better than I would have ever imagined. I did heed almost everyones warning about going down half a size. I normally wear an 8.5 and I went down to an 8 and they fit perfectly. I'm so happy with my purchase! Not including how great Altrec is! I got these boots 2 days after I ordered them and they said it may take a week. This isnt the first time I have ordered from them and it definitely won't be my last.

Love the boots

I bought these boots for my daughter for when she goes to college near Pittsburgh, PA. She loves them and so do I. they are so warm and well made. Will order again, if we need other warm clothes.

I luv these boots! they are cute but outdoorsy. they make me wish is was still winter (& i really hate the cold). Sorel really knows snow boots!

functionality and style in one

great boots! They look great, and are the warmest boots I own. i get lots of compliments.

Beautiful boots

I bought my wife these boots and she loves them. Tough to chose between the brown and black because they're both really nice looking. It's my first time ordering from Altrec.com and will definitely use them again in the future!

Beautiful Boots

Just got my boots and they are really beautiful. I trust Sorel Brand to keep my feet nice and warm:) Altrec seems like a good company and I will definitely order from them again.

Great boots but they DO run big
March 23, 2010

I should have read the reviews first. These boots are totally fabulous but they do run big. I'm typically a size 7.5 or 8 and I ordered an 8. With big socks in and the liner inside they fit with a little bit of room. Without the liner though they are way to big. I will be returning the 8 and buying a 7. Save yourself the trouble of return shipping costs and go a size down.

This is a very solid boot.
March 22, 2010

I had always heard about Sorel boot but never owned a pair. They are as comfortable as they are stylish. be sure to order your true size!

great boot
March 22, 2010

had my neon sorels for 20 years and these were the only ones that felt might be a good replacement.

I Love These Boots!
March 15, 2010

When I first tried on these boots, I thought they seemed a bit heavy/bulky. But, I think it was just because I don't usually wear boots. Once I walked around with them and got used to them, I fell in love! They are perfect and everything I hoped them to be! They are a little roomy which is perfect for a thicker sock and layered pants for extra cold days. (Now, I am small in stature, so roominess may vary). The boots aren't just practical for cold/rainy/snowy days, but fashionable too! I get complements everywhere I go.

Love my new boots
March 15, 2010

I've always wanted a cool pair of Sorels to tuck my jeans into and to keep me warm and dry. These are great, and stylish too.

Love 'em!
January 16, 2010

I really love my new boots. The sizing runs big. I wish that would have been mentioned on the website, since they don't come in half sizes. My recommendation would be to order a half size smaller. Even with 2 pairs of socks!

Great boots!
January 13, 2010

Love them!! Very warm, waterproof and they are great for just stepping outside or spending the day out. They also look great while keeping you warm.
