SOREL Kids' Footwear

Frequently Asked Questions

• How do I pick the right size and fit for SOREL kids' snow boots?

  SOREL kids' boots come in Toddler, Little Kid, and Big Kid sizing with a medium (M) width standard; the Flurry line features a slip-on shaft ~7–7.5 in high and adjustable closures (ankle strap, bungee/toggle) for a secure fit. Check the specific size chart for foot length and circumference—remember the removable 6mm felt liner adds insulation thickness, so measure with the sock thickness your child will wear. If your child grows quickly, compare foot measurements to the chart rather than relying solely on age or usual shoe size.
• How much warmth and waterproofing do SOREL Kids Flurry boots provide for snow play?

  Flurry boots use a seam-sealed, PU-coated synthetic upper with a waterproof membrane and PFC-free finishes to keep slush and snow out, while the removable 6mm recycled felt liner supplies synthetic insulation in the ~100–300g warmth range. That combination offers reliable warmth and dryness for deep snow play, walks to school, and light winter hikes. They’re built for everyday winter conditions rather than technical alpine or prolonged subzero expeditions.
• How does the SOREL Kids Flurry compare to the SOREL Kids Flurry Print?

  The SOREL Kids Flurry and Flurry Print share the same core construction—waterproof seam-sealed upper, removable 6mm felt liner, and multi-directional lugged thermal rubber outsole (EVERTREAD™/Vibram-style traction). The primary difference is aesthetic: Flurry Print offers patterned/color options, while the standard Flurry is available in solid colorways; size and availability may vary by style. Choose the version that fits your child’s style and the sizes listed for each model.
• Are SOREL kids' snow boots good for icy sidewalks and playgrounds?

  Yes, SOREL kids’ boots have injection-molded thermal rubber outsoles with multi-directional lugs and EVERTREAD™/Vibram-style compounds to improve grip on packed snow and typical icy sidewalks. They’re designed to enhance stability for everyday winter use and light trail walking, but they aren’t substitutes for crampons or technical ice footwear on steep, glazed ice. For prolonged or unusually hazardous icy conditions, consider adding traction devices specifically made for kids.
• What’s the best way to care for the removable liners and waterproof shell?

  The removable 6mm felt inner boot is washable—remove it after use, rinse or machine wash per the manufacturer’s tag, and air-dry completely away from direct heat to preserve insulation and shape. Wipe the PU-coated waterproof shell with a damp cloth and mild soap for salt and dirt, avoid harsh solvents or high heat, and store the boots dry with liners removed to prevent odor and moisture buildup. Regular cleaning and drying will help maintain waterproofing, insulation performance, and longevity.
