I just bought my second pair so I have no idea how this pair will do. The last pair were great and lasted 7 years. Unfortunately, the evaluation is requested even before it has adequately snowed here. Whoever is sending out the requests for reviews needs to take a look at the weather and send out the request for reviews after adequate weather has taken place to confirm the quality. It's stupid to write a review of an untested product, and that's what the review program is asking of me.

Still breaking them in, but the height of the boot hits the calf in an uncomfortable spot. I'm hoping that tying them loose and more wear and tear will soften them up so they won't be so tight. Love the durability of this brand, and the look is great too. They are so warm, I've been wearing them around the house as house shoes too. Overall, really Love them :)

I bought these 3 yes ago & I love them. I won't buy any other brand than Sorel. I bought my first pair in 1970. I wore them until 2005. Someone else wore them & they were stained with some black stuff & the bottom tread was very smooth making them slippery for walking in snow. They were tall & white. Kind of a nylon/canvas type material. I even remember where I bought them. My feet were always warm even without socks on. I walked 15 miles in -54 windchill & my feet were toasty warm.

My first pair of Sorels lasted 20 years so of course I purchased another pair when it finally came time. The second pair lasted only 2 winter seasons! The rubber cracked on both boots (and not on the bridge of the foot or an obvious wear spot). Sorel would not warranty-stand behind their product.

Wore these for 10 days in northern Norway and Sweden last January, and my feet never felt cold or wet. They are a bit bulky so it takes a minute to get used to them. I see a few comments about them feeling too big and filling the extra room with thick socks, but the trick is to have some extra room in the shoe. Your body heat will warm the air inside the shoe and keep your foot warmer. As for the style, I guess some may not consider them stylish, but I really like how they look. Came back to buy another pair in a different color because I love them so much!

Fit great. On the heavy side, but exactly what I wanted to keep my feet warm and dry this winter.

I've had these boots for 4 years, very light use each year. They were never my main boot, only used in special circumstances during winter. Just a couple of times each year. In that time, the rubber has cracked where the toe bends. Sorel's solution to the problem is to just buy a new pair of boots..... I don't trust them anymore, way too many reviews of this same exact problem happening.

My first pair of caribou's I bought in Alaska lasted me over 34 years, even though I've tried to destroy them on occasion. They took a direct hit from an axe that bounced off a frozen log I was chopping for the fire. Cut through the rubber bottom at the toes, but the liner stopped the axe, good thing for me as I was on a remote island in Prince William Sound, with transport off for a week. I've gone through so many liners that at last I could not get Sorel liners anymore in Alaska, so the boot became part time where and I switched to my Sorel Glacier's. But this last spring as I was driving through Canada, I stopped at a well know retailer and low and behold I found my new "bou's"! Hopefully they will last as long as my first pair!

These boots are perfect for tramping. They are rather large and heavy, so be prepared, but are absolutely watertight and keep my normally-freezing feet very warm, even when only in thin ankle socks. Will wear these for as many years as Sorel continues to make them.

The moment I received these boots, I wore them immediately. They are so warm and comfortable. I love this brand and that is why I have three other pair of boots from them. It's quality and made well. I will be wearing these boots again when winter comes around this year.

PLEASE NOTE: I ordered size 8 and never wear anything bigger than a 7.5 I had ordered the 7.5 from a different company (not Zappos) and regret not checking with Zappos first since- after 2 weeks- I still don't have a refund from the other company. These boots are extremely attractive, and I ordered some after my the zippers in my old ones of a different brand broke on a recent ski trip. With everything shut down for COVID19 and spring arriving in my city, I probably won't be wearing these until the end of 2020. They seem comfortable, seem warm, and a friend of mine who owns a well-worn pair of this style loves hers.

Ordered for the first time and my order arrived incorrect. the size I ordered was not what I received and the boots had a odor, almost like used boots. customer service responded timely. i won't be refunded my credit for shipping until my credit card is refunded as per your customer service email. which i might add is not making me happy. i have to do the work and then email them to be refunded. not my mistake this all happened. Winning would make me give your product another try, thank you

I bought these for my trip to Iceland in March. I went in March of 2019 rather unprepared and definitely experienced uncomfortably cold feet. I didn't want to make the same mistake so made the investment. My feet were never cold, but boots are "heavy" I'm assuming related to quality. With normal socks (not wool/thick) boots still fit well enough, but I would not be able to wear with thick socks.

I ordered these boots for my husband after purchasing a pair for myself this past winter. We use them for ice fishing and even in -15 conditions on the ice, they keep our feet nice and warm the entire time. Even with the water flooding our feet from the auger, the boots protect our feet! I can't say enough about these boots!

I typically wear a size 12, but the12s ran a little big. So the 11.5 was perfect. Not only are these boots super comfortable, but I always receive compliments on them, and most importantly they keep me warm. I've had a pair for over 5 years and they're good as new. Great boot, great design, and even better quality.

I bought these for my 9 year old son because I wanted a good warm and waterproof pair of boots. These work perfectly for the Cold Minnesota weather. And it's a bonus that they look great! Love sorel boots!

This seems to be great for really snowy winters. They're very insulated with a thick sole that will protect feet from the ground but be prepared to lug around a very heavy boot. It's incredibly heavy but I guess that's necessary to be effective. I didn't keep them as I don't think that's necessary for NY but if you live someplace north these would be great
