I bought these boots for winter walking and snowshoeing, in replacement of Salomon boots that were too stiff. Very comfortable, worn with heavier wool socks. Extremely happy with this purchase.

I said these were somewhat large, but I ordered a half size up and that's what I wanted - I buy all winter shoes 1/2 size larger so that fat socks will fit inside them.  These are not completely unsightly, and very comfortable.  Probably won't wear them outside, except for jaunts to the bird feeder.  Perfect for my purposes.

I normally wear an 8 in all shoes, and when these arrived I could tell they were just a bit big. I can still easily wear them with thick socks so it's not an issue. Overall they're very comfortable!

I really like these socks.  All my previous hiking socks had been heavier in weight, and that made them almost too hot to wear in the warmer months.  These are super comfortable and have been great the few times I've worn them hiking.

UPDATE - Of all my wool hiking socks, these are still my favorites.  They strike a great balance between cushion/comfort and being too hot.  Took a couple pairs on a 5 day hike of the Appalachian Trail and on numerous other hikes and must say they worked great.  I did pair them with liner socks, but neither my son (who had 2 pairs as well), nor I got a single blister wearing these socks.

Nice fit, look just like they do in the picture. They are comfortable and although looser in the foot area, they allow for thicker socks to be worn with them!

I was a big fan of the Injinji wool original weight trail crew socks, which they've stopped making. These are the replacements for those, made from synthetic materials. I believe Injinji did this because there were a lot of complaints about the merino wool wearing too quickly. These are comfortable, but I haven't given them a test backpacking yet; only on regular hikes. Meanwhile, the fit is true and the socks keep their shape nicely.

These are comfortable, light weight boots. I have worn them in rain and snow and in temperatures down to 10 F.
Below 30 F thick wool socks are required for comfort if you are going to be out for hours at a time.
The grip on the soles is awesome, have tested on ice, snow and mud.

I have narrow feet (4A) and skinny ankles.  With heavy wool socks and lacing tightly all fits snugly.
I ordered +1/2 to accommodate wool socks.  On a particularly cold day I tried to put on two pairs of wool socks with these boots, my toes then hit the end of the boots.

I haven't had these long enough to know if they will live up to the legendary Sorel quality.
Since they were not made in Canada, I doubt that they will.

These are the quality issues I have noticed so far.
 The wrap around material on the heel has an oblong bubble where it has become detached from the canvas material.
Inside one of the boots was loose strips of insole, where the insole was cut to fit the boot, and the remnants were left in the boot.
On one of the boots the white line was wavy not straight.
While these are mainly cosmetic issues, cosmetic flaws are often indicators for hidden structural issues.

Would I purchase these boots again? Only at a price point of $60-$80.  These are China made boots with a Sorel name tag sewn on them.

I initially purchased this item in a size six but found it did not leave enough room for thick socks. I ordered again in a six and a half and it was a comfortable fit with thick wool socks.
I traveled to France, England, and Scotland in February with these boots and they held up great in the rain and mud. They are not particularly warm boots but coupling them with warm socks kept me comfortable in temperatures ranging from the high thirties to mid-forties. Would recommend.

Nice boots but not as warm as other reviewers have commented. But comfortable and just wore thick woolen socks.

Overall I am quite satisfied with the quality, fit and materials though - as at least one reviewer noted - the socks tend to "fuzz." I'm hoping this will diminish after a few washings. Wool dress socks are increasingly difficult to find in stores, even ones that carry the Gold Toe brand, so I was pleased to find them available on Amazon.

My wife bought these for me as a present and I really like them. They run a little big - I should have exchanged for a half size smaller, but they work great with a pair of thick, warm, wool socks.

Very comfortable, you can easily wear with socks.  This is my second pair.  The first pair lasted for several years.

only slightly smaller, because I like to wear wool socks when pulling out these boots.

Very comfortable; not tight or affecting circulation at all. Since I am well aware of the merits of wool I plan to make additional future purchases in other colors. (Never place wool socks in a dryer!!! It substantially reduces their life.)

Super comfortable socks that seem that they're going to wear for a long time.  They protect my feet in my shoes/boots and moderate temperatures.  A bit pricier than I'm used to paying for socks, but happy with the purchase.
