Is the Sorel Joan Now Zip Bootie actually waterproof?

Yes. Sorel lists it as waterproof, with a canvas and leather upper over a rubber lug sole. It handles rain and slush, but it is not a wading boot.

Is it warm enough for winter?

It has a fleece lining and 100g of insulation, which suits fall and mild winter. For hard freezes or long time outdoors, a taller boot with more insulation is a better fit.

How tall is the shaft?

The shaft is 5.3 inches, an ankle height. It covers the ankle but not the lower calf.

How does the sizing run?

It is listed in medium width. Sorel boots generally run true to size, but try them with the socks you plan to wear, since the fleece lining takes up some room.

One pair of boots. Socks and other accessories are not included.

How does it compare with the Sorel Joan of Arctic?

The Joan of Arctic is a taller, heavier snow boot with more insulation and a removable liner. The Joan Now Zip is lower and lighter, easier to walk in and quicker to pull on, but it covers less of the leg and holds less warmth in deep cold.

About the Sorel Joan Now Zip Bootie Women's Canoe

The Sorel Joan Now Zip Bootie is a women's ankle boot in canvas and leather with a side zip, a 5.3-inch shaft and a lugged rubber sole. It is waterproof, lined in fleece and carries 100g of insulation, so it is built for cold, wet city days rather than deep snow. It sits below Sorel's taller Joan of Arctic boots on warmth and coverage, trading them for a lighter, easier-on boot with a zip instead of laces.

Best forCold, wet commutes and slushy sidewalksEveryday casual wear with jeans or leggingsShoppers who want a zip boot instead of lacesMild winter wear, not deep snow

Waterproof canvas and leather upper keeps feet dry in rain and slush
