This is a great winter boot for the frosty northeast. It fits true to size but be aware it is a heavy boot.

Heavy Snow Boots

Prosserious snow boo
So I have wanted these to replace my uggs... these are way more durable and water proof and don't involve having to hear about disturbing youtube videos. These are a lot heavier but I guess it makes sense that they will last longer. I compared them to the other styles by Sorel (which are more dainty), but these are also featured on all the J.Crew photos, which vouches for their timeless-ness. They have some of the most impressive treads.
I am keeping them and will probably gain some serious leg strength this winter. They are pretty true to size, I wear and 8.5 and wanted to get a small size so they seemed less bulky but my toes fit perfectly.
I wore these boots for the first time last night taking my dog for a walk in the snow and slush. I only had one pair of socks on and my feet were very warm and cozy! The fit is very true to size. If you want to put super thick socks on, you may need to size up, but they are very true to size. I expect the insole will compact a bit with wear as well. They are not a boot created for long walks, as they are a bit stiff but if you realize this, you won't be disappointed in their performance.
I read other reviews that said to order down a size so I did. I couldn't get my foot in! Ordered the next size up and they fit great. A little extra room but keep my feet warm in the freezing cold Chicago weather...and they look cute too!
