Boots fit larger than they say so I ordered a size smaller than I normally wear (a 7 instead of an 8) and they fit perfectly. They were shipped very quickly and were exactly what I ordered. Loved this website, will order from Zappos again and again.

Sturdy. Warm. Great to wear to the ski slopes. Or on these cold, snowy, and slushy days.

Feet stay dry in these boots. The sole design makes for a very secure footing in the snow. They are high enough on the leg to prevent snow from slipping in, although this does affect their flexibility--not very. These are serious snow boots, not casual cold weather boots when you'd want more flexibility--very warm.

These definitely do run large, as other reviews have indicated, but I was okay with a pair of thick socks.

These boots are great! I purchased to take on a trip to Alaska in February. My feet were never cold, not once, not even a tiny bit. One adventure had me trudging in snow in sub zero temps. They are a bit clunky so watch how you get in/out of cars and tighter spaces as you cannot guide your feet to sneak by obstacles. For those with wide calves, I did well with these. They were easy to walk in immediately -- no break in.

I love these boots. They are tall enough to keep my feet warm and dry through all the snow we have had this winter. A necessity for living in New England.

I love these boots! It has been a killer winter in Chicago with non-stop snow. These boots have kept my feet dry and warm. They are a bit heavy, but that is a small price to pay. They do fit a bit large, but I tend to wear thick socks, so the size is perfect. Cute with skinny jeans!

It took me a little time to get used to these boots. They are very heavy. But this has been a really sucky winter. And every time I am schlepping to or from the train on my daily commute to work, I think these boots were my best purchase of 2010. If you live somewhere cold, where it snows and you have to risk life and limb on ice, buy yourself a pair of Sorel Caribous.

I really couldn't be happier with these boots. I ordered them as a holiday gift for myself in early December, and now, in late January, they've been on my feet practically every day! They are very heavy; going for a walk in them is a little like wearing ankle weights. These are not the boots to order if you only have to cope with a bit of light slush every now and then. But for heavy snow, nothing works better to keep your toes warm and your ankles and lower calves protected. I find them surprisingly stylish, too; the black/stone color combo is quite handsome and goes nicely with jeans as well as black pants. I look cute as I clomp! I normally wear a normal width 8.5, so I ordered a 9 and am very pleased. There's plenty of room for an extra pair of heavy socks, and I'm also comfortable just slipping them on barefoot for quick trips outside in the middle of the night. (I'm housebreaking a puppy, not a fun thing to do at this time of year! But these boots make those surprise midnight trips out a breeze.) The lining is very soft and comfortable on bare feet. I know from my family's experience that Sorrel boots can last for decades; my Dad has a pair that are nearly 20 years old. I'm looking forward to spending a lot of winter seasons with mine.

A classic boot that keeps my feet warm and dry when I am out in the (occasional) snow we get in NC and when I am in real snow which I encounter when I visit family in Colorado. Highly Recommended.

I love these boots. I've been stomping around in the snow and my feet are warm and dry! They are definitely big. I even thought I ordered the wrong size when I opened the box but they were right on. I wear a 9.5 and ordered the 10. They are slightly big but nothing uncomfortable and will wear big socks. They are cute with jeans or even skirts.

These are serious boots. They are solid, warm and very waterproof. They definitely do run big. I usually wear a 10.5 or 11 and ordered these in a 10 (and they are still pretty roomy). The only downside is that they are quite heavy and a little tricky to drive in, other than that- they are a great classic snow boot.

I am in love with these boots. Yes, they are heavier and a bit less flexible than some options. I think your enjoyment of them will depend upon what kind of boot you like. I don't mind that they are big. Living in Upstate New York, I need boots that I can throw on to shovel snow, wade through drifts on the way to work, and that will keep my feet warm and dry. These Sorel's do the job marvelously. The fleece dries very quickly if it gets wet. I wear a 9.5 (I have a narrow foot) and I ordered these in a size 9, which was the right choice for me. I wear medium-weight socks and have enough room to comfortably move my toes.

The boots are much larger and bulkier than I expected. I'm sure they are very warm, but they are too bulky for walking the dog any distance. I received my order so quickly and easily. Zappos is great.

Super warm. I usually wear an 8; the 8's are a bit big, and I feel that I should have returned them for a smaller size; but I wear them with thick socks and can manage. My heel slips slightly when walking.

I needed a good winter boot so I ordered these. They are the best winter boot I have ever worn. They are comfortable and warm. These are great in the snow. I wear a 6 1/2 and ordered them in a size 6. They fit good.

Great boots -- warm, sturdy, well-made. The only con is that they are fairly heavy. Otherwise, they're awesome in the snow.

I have been wanting these boots as long as I can remember and they are even better than I imagined. If you are looking for a classic snow boot, then this is it. Beware - they're heavy. They're roomy enough for thick wool socks. I've worn them in two feet of snow and on icy sidewalks and they have great grip and are nice and warm. I am thrilled with this purchase.

These boots are wonderful! They keep my feet so warm all day and they are also comfortable. They are "big" boots so if you are going for a more girly look, I would go with a different boot. In my opinion these are smart boots for the winter!

Love these classic winter boots! Comfy, warm, waterproof, good tread and a nice shaft height for trekking around in the snow. The only down side is that they're fairly heavy. Overall, these are great boots that will last for years.

I bought these for my daughter at her behest. College girl in Maine. She loves them. Appreciates the boot liner. Says she doesn't have to wear bulky-knit socks anymore. I can relate to liking that notion.

These boots are a do not miss! So very warm, and super comfy. Sledding with the kids, not a drop of snow got in them. Stomping through slush,stayed dry. Almost as comfy as my UGG shoes. They are very roomy. I normally wear an 8 1/2 and have a very narrow foot. I ordered the 8 and they are just right, with a thicker sock.

These boots worked great during an NYC blizzard. Usually have cold feet during the winter, but not his time.Wore without socks and my feet were the warmest part of my body. A little stiff when first put on but after fits like a glove.
