This boot is a cute commuter boot; meaning it'll get you dry from point A to point B dry no problem but it is not designed to withstand long durations to extreme conditions.I like that it has a moccassin look. It is the "shell" of the boot world. No fur or insulation/liner on the inside of the boot so it is not designed to keep you warm. I would imagine it would be a nice boot to have to trek to and from work in extreme conditions but yet not overheat once your inside (I live in So Cal so I don't have to deal with that :). I have to wear this boot with my thick socks (hiking). There is slight padding on the inner sole so it is fairly comfortable. The sole is much stiffer than I expected, but not uncomfortably so. There is a significant amount of rubber on the heel and pad of the foot for traction, and I haven't had slippage problems yet. The laces are simply leather bands so it doesn't cinch up super tight, but the laces grip themselves well so I don't worry about them loosening.
I typically wear this shoe on rainy days here (commuting to and from work- it stands up well) stepping in puddles and what not, but it wouldn't lasts if I sat outside for several hours in the rain. I have a classic pair of Sorel Tivoli's I wear when I want waterproof without a doubt (if you're looking for dependability and cute- get a pair of printed Tivoli's)- but those have a liner with a fur lip so they're considerably warmer. I wore this boot to Mammoth on a spring snowboard trip recently it is did fine until I sat in the snow playing with my kids for a couple hours. The toes started to get saturated and I felt some moisture, but I'm not too surprised.
Also, in my Tivoli's I wear an eight and in this shoe although I also got an 8 I would definitely say it is a snugger fit. If you're in doubt; size up.
These are about $90 on Amazon- if I paid that price I wouldn't of been pleased for what I paid for. However I got them one sale straight from the Sorel manufacturer/website for $50 so I'm content with them.
Overall: Cute/trendier, good for short exposure to extreme conditions, fairly comfortable for a "shell" of a boot
