I purchased these boots for a trip to Iceland and absolutely love them! They do run small, but that is because they are very insulated. I usually wear a size 7, but read the reviews and decided to purchase a size 8. They fit perfectly and I still have some room for some thick wool socks.

I love everything about them, except that they are seriously sized wrong. I own a pair of 7s from a few years ago, they are literally the same length from toe to heel as the 8s I ordered. Which means I would likely have to go for a 9 as my toes hit the end of the shoe inside. Feet widen as we get older, they do not lengthen. If you can find a size that fits, do it. They are supposed to be well insulated, and they are. I got used to my previous pair being tight for a couple of weeks until the insides molded to my foot. They remained tight, so if you have wide feet these are not for you. I may try again next year. Cute and stylish don't really go with really good cold weather boots. It is really frustrating that you cannot get a real length and width on the NF website either. There is no way to save all that diesal fuel of truckers shipping boots back and forth because the manufacturer cannot get the boots sized correctly or put more information on a website. North Face may not believe in climate change for that reason. Not re-ordering this year. Not going through the hassle.

Wish I'd read other reviews. At least a size off due to the insulation. Yes, maybe it would compress with wear, not an option since can barely get on my foot despite same size in earlier version of same NorthFace boot. Beyond irritated that they can't remedy and I have to pay return shipping!!!!

How can you legally sell a product that doesn't even come close to actual sizing? How inconvenient for me to have to ship 3 pairs back because the sizing is beyond a half size and full size too small.

If you are planning on these boots, you should go at least a half perhaps even a full size up.

These boots are great for tromping through the snow. I wouldn't personally recommend them as a casual boot as they are a bit heavier but they kept my wimpy feet toasty all last winter.

I ordered these boots formy wife as a surprise. She loved the look from online photos and reviews; however,they did not work for her. They are big,bulky, and too heavy for my wife's needs. Additionally, she felt they were not comfortable either. Next time, she will have to choose boots in person for feel & fit.

I bought these boots to wear on a winter trip to Iceland. They were ideal for the occasion (warm and sturdy) but I can't deny that there were times that my feet felt suffocated. Best to buy a size or two up.

I was looking for a comfortable and very warm boot and this delivered! Per other reviews it runs VERY small. I am usually a size 5.5 or 6 but I purchased a size 7. They fit bUT I was somewhat tempted to try a 7.5...order accordingly. I highly recommend this boot.

This boot is actually very bulky-looking. Once laced up it cuts into my calf in a way that makes it very awkward to walk. They are very warm and DO run a whole size smaller.

I do not doubt that these boots would've been warm and done a good job in the waterproof department; however, they completely lack in the mobility and fit department. I normally wear an 8 1/2 on average. I had to go up to a 10 in these, just to have enough space for my toes in thin socks. My circulation was getting cut off otherwise. The box is incredibly tight, given the intense insulation. As a result of having to order so big, I felt like I was walking around in extremely stiff clown shoes. Needing to walk to and from the subway, these simply did not work out. I went for a less insulated, but far more mobile option in another brand.

:O)

The style and quality are excellent. The boots are nice and light and would be great for hiking or snowshoeing. The soles have a nice tread that look like they would be good on snow and ice. The insulation on the inside is very puffy which envelopes your foot. The problem that I had was that the toe box is very small due to the thickness of the insulation. I normally wear size 8.5 so ordered 9.5 based on other reviews. It is still too small. To be fair, I usually wear Dansko and Birkenstocks so I am used to a roomy toe box, so people who are used to regular dress shoes may not feel as constricted.

These boots are super cute looking and really well made. Unfortunately, they are very thickly padded on the inside, which made it very difficult to even get them on my foot. I am a size 8-8.5, and I ordered a 8.5 then a 9, sadly, I had to return them. I guess if your foot is very tiny, they may work, but the padding felt like my foot was suffocating.

Comfortable, well made, best design ever especially for snowshoeing. Really a great buy. It's not that I have money, I have great taste and choose wisely. Thank you. (boots run small, ordered 1 size larger than needed).

I usually run between a 9 and a 9.5 and when I received my 9.5, I returned it for a 10 and it still was uncomfortably snug. I'm not done trying to wear it around the house to see if it loosens up...but living in the "polar-vortex" of MN, I'm very sad about it because I really need warm boots!!!! I have to rate it at a 3 just to be in the middle since I can't testify to it's warmth since it doesn't fit well.

I just ordered these boots, and they came really fast! They look and feel great, but the inner insulation is a little thick. I ordered a size 8 (my usual size) and exchanged them for an 8 1/2. Customer service was wonderful, I even accidentally hung up on the rep. (Matt Heffernan) and he called me right back! And he gave me the special on free 2 day shipping. I can't wait to get these boots back, I know they will be perfect for my outdoor adventures :)
