Sorel Glacier -
The insole on these boots is extremely soft and cushioned, but the boot is very bulky and heavy on your feet. Good for snowmobiling or any activity that does not require a lot of walking. I am returning mine and opted for the Sorel Blizzard which is a lighter weight boot.

Sorel Glacier -
You definitely can order these in your normal shoe size. They seem to run about 1/2 size large. Nice, warm and very cushioned boot, but I wouldn't want to walk far in them as they are very heavy! I bought these for my boyfriend and although he has not tried them on yet, I think I will have to return them for a smaller size.

Good snow boots -
I like the boot, but the size was larger than I expected. I ended up selling these to my buddy and ordering a smaller pair. My feet never even thought of getting cold in these boots. They are very good in snow and are easy on easy off.

Sizing important -
Wonderful product. Your feet will be warm and dry. One caution: do'nt oversize. If you wear a 9 shoe, oder this boot in a 9.

Toasty Warm -
Very bulky and a bit heavy, BUT VERY WARM!! My feet are always cold and it makes enjoying outdoor winter activities very hard. I just went snowmobiling with a high temp of 6 degrees. I wore my sorel's with one pair of socks the whole time and my feet were completely warm and comfortable. They have so much cushioning it is like walking on air too.

Great Boots -
I haven't had to use these in really cold weather yet, but compared to my old boots, there is no comparison, these are the best snow boots I've owned.
Very good traction, very comfortable for such large boots, and most importantly WARM.
If you want to wear with large socks, probably best to get a 1/2 size larger.

The Bomb!
These boots are awesome! I got them last week, shoveled outside for hours and all the while it felt like I had my feet resting next to the fireplace. I ordered a pair for my husband as well and he is equally impressed. We both ordered one size larger than we normally wear and are glad we did. The only run about 1/2 small, but I'd rather have them 1/2 too big than a 1/2 size too small! They are a little awkward to get around in at first, but I rather wear them and be warm (even if it means looking like a goofball!) These boots were worth every penny.

Snow boat -
I work for the rail road over donner summit. Durring the winter I help keep the pass open by working snow service for the union pacific R.R. These boots are the best ones that I have used to this day. They keep my feet very warm, very confortable, and they have a very big foot print to keep you from sinking in to far in to rhe snow, I am very happy with them. THANK YOU!!!!

Polar bears would be jealous.
I bought these boots about six years ago (around 1998) and have used them in several snowstorms - both in Flagstaff, AZ and in Colorado. Weather at -20F doesn't even phase them. Start out with warm feet and they'll STAY warm. True, these are big boots, but compared to the alternative of getting caught in a blizzard and getting frostbite makes them all the more attractive. Especially considering how comfortable they are - makes walking around in deep snow easy - almost feels like they're "air cusioned". You'll always find a pair of these boots in my closet.

Awesome Winter Boot -
Best Winter Boot Ever!!! Rugged, excellent tread for all types of snow and ice. One of the best features is the height of this boot, nice and tall keeping your entire lower leg/calf warm, and enables you to walk through deep snow. The shiny rubber is flexible allowing for great comfort while walking. You can go anywhere in this boot. When I walk down the street people look at my big Sorel boots. I've gotten some comments on how huge this boot looks, but I like that about them. When I slip these boots on my foot and leg are encased in instant warmth, and they hold up to the extreme temperatures. Extremely comfortable, won't want to take them off my happy feet when spring comes. It really is like walking on air, and in the snow...its even better.

Extreme Snow Boots -
We've had two storms up here so far and these boots kept me nice and warm during snow removal. Size seems to me to be a little larger than actual. Two pairs of socks fixed that problem. I like them.

Had To Have Them -
I arrived here in Barrow AK about a month ago. I came prepared, I thought, with a pair of Sorel Caribou boots. They had served me well in Juneau last year and I felt confident they would continue to serve me well. The first time I spent an hour outside with the temp well below zero and the wind howling it became apparant that more boot was needed. I purchased the Glacier for $140.00 from a local store and have been completely satisfied with their performance and comfort. I found that taking the added intersole out of the liner and putting it underneath gives me more room for my foot inside he liner itself. Sorel is a great boot and the Glacier is the warmest of the lot. I normally wear a size twelve. Only thirteen was available. I'm glad I got the larger size, as they seem to fit perfectly. They're lighter than they would appear to be for their size.

Terrific Snow Boot, Terrific Customer Service -
After nearly getting frost bite from shoveling snow for two days in old boots, I ordered these Sorel's on a Sunday night. The shipping was upgraded by Zappos from 5 day to overnight at no charge to me and they arrived Tuesday morning. Great boot, greater shoe/boot store.

Best shoe or boot ever....
I saw these online, and said to myself, "now that looks like a serious snow boot". After freezing my toes off in my Docs last winter while working outside in the snow, I decieded to give these a wirl. The first time I put my foot in them, I felt like my feet were surrounded by a toaster oven made of foam. I know that sounds weird, but thats the best I can describe it. I never want to take these boots off. They are warm as anything and it feels like you are walking on air.

Bring on the snow!
I bought this item for a Christmas gift. He Hasn't had a chance to wear, no snow yet. But if we have a winter like last year, they will get a true test. I would like to comment on warmth then. But, I really don't have any doubts.

These shoes are huge! They looked orthopedic to me. I ordered a size 10 and they fit nicely. Warm, too. The are heavy though, much too heavy for me to wear them all day.

A warm boot -
A half size between would have been nice. Very warm boot. Not pretty, big and bulky, but effective.

The best boot I've ever owned!
WOW! I'm certainly impressed with the Glacier! I live in Maine and spend a lot of time snowmobiling and ice fishing during the winter and was looking for a boot that, would meet my needs and after wearing these boots this last winter, I've got say that, I'm really impressed at how warm and comfortable this boot is! With one pair of socks and temps well below zero, my feet were warm as toast! I bought a full size larger to accommodate for one pair socks, the boot is a bit bulky but, I walked around in them just fine! I wouldn't want to walk around the mall all day with them but, for snowmobiling and ice fishing there perfect!

The boot is comfortable and very warm. I use these in Northern Minnesota, where we see temperatures down to -40F. I've used them to ride a snowmobile down to -15F, and they worked great. I also bought a pair for my wife and she loves her pair too.

These are very warm boots. I had the chance to put them to the test recently. I was ice fishing at Lake Granby, CO a couple weeks ago. Temperature was 25 below and my feet stayed nice and warm. Not too hot, not too cold. In addition, the boots are very comfortable. Like walking on air. Zappos was very prompt with my order. Received the boots in several days.

I purchased a pair of Sorel glacier boots although they are a half size bigger than what my foot size is they fit great with a pair of thick wool socks. I cannot say enough about how quick they process your order and how quick you receive merchandise. I am 100% satisfied. First time shopping with Zappos but definitely not my last. Great products, great service.

The warmest boots I have ever had! They are a bit clunky, but I use them for snowmobiling so I'm not using them for a lot of walking.
