This was my first Sorel purchase, and I am so glad I finally decided to do it. These boots fit perfectly, they are waterproof and super easy to clean! They are super comfortable and sturdy - I can wear them outside on the farm all day and not have to worry about getting cold feet or any aches from standing all day.
They are snow boots, so they are pretty bulky but I knew this when I was buying them.

My first pair of Sorel boots and I will never buy another brand again! Perfect for the weather here in Illinois when it goes from deep snow to water puddles. My feet stay dry and comfy all day long without being too hot. One thing I love about them is how clean they look even after being out in the snow and salt. They fit a little on the big side which works well when I want to wear thick socks. I bought my normal size.

My tennis shoe size is 8.5-9, I ordered a size 10 and it fits great when I am wearing my thick wool socks. They are not sloppy when walking. Warmth: warmer than other winter boots I've had. I plan to use these for when the temperatures get below 0 F.

I haven't had much experience with these in the snow yet but they seem like they will really hold up. I could see them getting a little heavy if you walk in them for awhile. My shoe size is a 6.5 but usually purchase 7 in boots. The sizing chart on the Sorel website indicated I should get a 6. This made me nervous so I still went with a 6.5 and they seem to fit fine.

The Caribou boot is a great product! Nice and warm for our Minnesota cold winters. I found that the boot does fit slightly large as I had to go down 1 shoe size.

Loved the style, but not the weight. Too heavy to walk around in regularly. So sad I had to return them.

These are attractive pack boots but they are for COLD temps and SNOW. Not for looking "cute". Order one size smaller than your normal shoe size. All my other Sorel boots I have sized up a half. You need a full size for these. Arrived two weeks before we had 11 inches of snow. Rode ATV and went sledding all day with one pair of wool socks on. NEVER got cold toes!! Large toe box allows for toe warmers if you like. My husband saw mine and remembered his pair at his parent's house from high school. He wore his all weekend too!

I love the way this boot looked- but I actually ended up returning it. They are very comfortable, but they are also pretty heavy- like walking around in snow boarding boots. I would still totally recommend these boots if you are going to be in a heavily snowing area, but for me, I was looking for something a little lighter

The boots were comfortable however mine were too large and therefore had to be returned. Other than the fit too large, which I now know I have to go to a retail store to try on, they would have been perfect. The style of the caribou was super cute, stylish and very warm. Once I try on at a store I'm sure these boots will last a VERY long time.

I looked at all the reviews which said these boots run way large. I normally wear a 7 or 7.5 but would buy my boots in an 8. I decided to go with the 7. I’m so glad I didn’t go any smaller! They fit, but I can feel my toes bumping up at the end. No need to size up in these boots, but certainly don’t buy smaller than your regular size.

I can usually wear a size 8 or 8.5, depending on the shoe and the brand. I ordered an 8.5 thinking I’d want a little extra room for a big sock. The 8.5s were way too big. I exchanged for an 8 and there’s plenty of room for a sock and not at all uncomfortable. These boots are perfect for winter weather. They’re heavy, so not likely going to be a good shoe for lots of walking/hiking, but they will keep your feet warm and dry if you need to go through the snow for a bit.

Living in sunny Key West, Florida, the need for snow boots are not usually needed. So a few years ago, my husband borrowed a pair of Caribou Wool Boots for a winter vacation and fell in love with them. So I bought him a pair recently and they are true to size and keep his feet warm. They should last a long time since he will only use them occasionally.

I live in New York, and I needed something that was really good for the snow, but I have to say while these are such great boots and I'm sure would be amazing in areas where you get tons of snow all the time, they are just way too heavy and bulky. I would recommend for those who are looking to wear something that will keep them warm and still be able to function (I commute daily on the train, the bus, and walk a lot), stay away from these. I just ordered the Winter Fancy boots so hopefully those will be great for day to day and snow as well :)
In terms of fit, I'm usually an 8.5-9, I sized down to an 8 and it fit perfectly.

After the first season of these boots they started loosening up and now have come about 1/2 size to big. Not so much that I can’t wear them, just enough to make me wish they were smaller. If I ever (which I don’t think I’ll need to) I’ll buy them a whole size smaller.

Ordered these boots as they were highly rated. Was disappointed in the size and weight of these boots. The 8 was way too large for my foot. They were really heavy. They are made well, just didn't fit and were too heavy for me.

These boots offer amazing warmth, deep treads on the soles and great styling; PLUS THEYRE COMFORABLE!!
I wear work boots all day and I was skeptical when my wife ordered these. The last thing I need, is to put on "boots" at the end of my days. However, I went on a hike with these straight out of the box. The footbed is very comfortable and they're lightweight. We walked in packed snow for hours, with no foot fatigue. The soles have deep enough tread, so I was stable the entire way.
I read reviews that they ran large so I went down by a half size.
