I was looking for a stylish winter boot that was also comfortable and warm. These boots checked all the boxes!

I purchased these while my friend purchased them in the nylon version in the same size. These were much wider and less flattering. Very warm but very wide, could easily be a men's boot.

I love the quality, warmth and functionality of this boot. I appreciate the room in the toe box for when you wear thicker socks.

Absolutely love them! So comfortable, and i wish i could get away with wearing them during summer but I will wear my Sorel sandals instead. Top brand for me.lost count of how many pairs I have-so great for PNW life!

Such a warm boot! I’ve got a horse farm and I spend hours outside in all weather. Well, fast forward to the polar vortex ?. If you don’t know what chilblains is, count your lucky stars.
The Sorel Caribou boots are a lifesaver! So much warmer than my Dry Shod Arctic boots.

I am a huge fan of Sorel and love all of my different Sorel boots but was very disappointed in my first pair of the Caribou Boot. I couldn't get my foot inside the boot without bunching up the liner inside (I ordered my true size, a size 10). Once I finally got my foot in, I pulled it out and the liner came out too! I checked the other boot and the liner was also not attached or sewn into the boot in any way. Very disappointed in the quality of this particular boot. I am also annoyed that I had to pay $12 for shipping for a $200 pair of boots. Most merchants offer free shipping for that price point. And now I have to pay another $6 to send them back? Ridiculous.

I have no doubt that these Sorel boots would keep my feet warm in the snow; however, they are SO chunky and heavy that I just could not see myself wearing them except maybe once or twice in a winter. I tried them on several times and could barely walk in them--maybe because I am a bit short and they just are too much boot for me. Very nice looking and they were hard to give up, but just too heavy for me. I think I can still keep warm and protected in a lighter Sorel boot.

Boots look nice, but do not keep the feet warm. Pretty disappointed overall. Had them for 2 years and can't be outside for more than 10 minutes with them. Temp sits single digits to 30F

I wear a 7w (platypus feet). tried these in a 7.5 and an 8 with heavy socks. They squeezed my toes and were even painful just to try on. Obviously if they hurt when I try them on, they’re not going to get better.
Too bad. I hear these are the best. But I won’t get to try them in the snow.

My dad had a pair of these when we lived in Iowa, Northwest, Schaller, Iowa. We live 3 miles outside of town. Dad had a couple snowmobile's. And this was what he wore on his feet when he was outside on a snowmobile. And so did I because I had same size feet even though I was 9-10.

Just wanted to share my dad's story- he's 92 and we just ordered new liners for his Caribous. I asked how many liners he's been through because I remember these boots from when I lived at home. He got to thinking and figured out he got his boots in 1978! He said cold feet made a hunting trip miserable so he stretched his budget to get Caribous and "fell deeply in love" with them (his words). He lived in Illinois and Wisconsin for years with them and still wears them in Nebraska. The uppers and rubber are in great condition and he's still deeply in love. I thought if any product deserves a rave review this is it!

I used your fit guide and rather than sizing down I ordered exact size as I like to wear heavy socks. My foot measurement was 11 so based on your guide I should have ordered 10.5. I ordered 11 and really wished I had ordered a 11.5. The 11 works with athletic socks but now way would they fit with heavy socks. I have yet to wear them as our winter is really mild.

ok. I have always loved the caribou boots but the last two pairs I have had lasted only one year before the rubber cracked. I live in montana where the winters tend to be cold and long so I wear the boots a lot but I am thinking they should last longer than one year. I see this comment a lot so it is obvious there is a problem. I want to like them but the cracking rubber just won't let me.

These Caribou boots are super comfortable and true to size.
However I chose the Winter Carnival style as they were lighter and less bulky

I bought these to replace my husbands 45 year old pair. They fit, but are a little taller than his old pair
