I spent a LOT of time combing through reviews for these boots to make sure I'd get the right size. I'm a size 7 in pretty much every pair of shoes I try on, but all these reviews are saying they're too small/too big/etc.
I ended up finding them in a store and tried on a 7 - perfect fit! I thought I might be able to go down a half size, but with thick wool socks, a 7 is just right.
These boots aren't as heavy as I thought they'd be. They're very durable and keep my feet SO warm. If you're debating on size, I'd say go with the size you wear in most shoes.

So the rumors are true. Sorel's Caribou boot is amazing.
True craftmanship. Almost even art.
It's the combination of design, comfort and (most important) warmth.
Great job Sorel. Great job.

Overall very pleased with the boots. They run slightly small. Normal shoe size is 8 1/2 but ordered 9 so that 2 pair of socks can be worn in cold weather. Not sure 2 pair of socks will fit. Liner clings to socks so getting the boots off takes more effort. Overall, very comfortable and quality seems comparable to last pair that were ordered several years ago.

Ordered a womens 9.5 and the boot says 9.5 but it's way too big - looks like a man's boot. Not sure what the problem was.

I wear size 15 boots and my feet are as wide as a Buick. I ordered the Caribou boots and couldn't be happier. The boots fit great, lace up well and are comfortable on long very snow bound Ohio hikes.
I wish I had not waited this long to order a pair.

I love the quality of my Caribou Boots. These were a gift to my fiance who loved my boots. I have had my boots for about 15 years and it is good to see a company that maintains the high quality in their product that many years later.
She absolutely loves them. They fit true to size.

I bought my caibous in 1987 when I lived in Alaska. 24 years later I have gone through three sets of liners but the boot shell is still like new. No water leaks and keeps my toes warm when clearing the driveway after a 24 inch snow fall. I don't use the daily any more but the first5 years in Alaska they were used heavily during backcountry ex erosions in the Chugach mountains. Way to make a quality ling lasting product

They are comfortable, keep your feet toasty, and are fabulous for shoveling and snowy walks.

Bought my Caribous almost 3 years ago and wore them despite the lack of bad weather where I live in the Southeast. Then my college roommate moved to the Colorado Rockies and I started visiting her there. These boots have been hiking, strolling, snowmobiling and are my go-to favorites. They are warm and sturdy and look as good in the snow as they do fire-side apres-ski. Two enthusiastic thumbs-up!

I hate cold feet, so this year I picked up these bad boys and they have been wonderfully toasty. The first few times I wore them, they were really stiff and they rubbed on my heel to the point where I was afraid they wouldn't work, but that went away completely. It makes sense that a boot made to last for a really long time would take a little breaking in at first! The style is totally iconic, and I am very happy with how cute they look with skinny jeans and leggings! I'm happy that I won't have to buy new winter boots for a long time.

I just received my Sorel Caribou's and I could not be happier. I was concerned about which size to order after I read many of the reviews so I called Sorel's Customer Care number and asked them what their recommendation was. They said to order 1 size smaller so I did and they fit perfectly!!
My first adventure thru the deep snow was great. Looking forward to many more.

Love these! I have very narrow feet and have a hard time finding boots. I'm able to lace them tight and by adding some heel padding, they work great. Very warm and water proof. Perfect for the cold snap hitting the Midwest!

Over the years I have owned several pairs of winter boots, but have never treated myself to an actual pair of Sorels. I shouldn't have waited. I have only worn them once so far, which was shoveling snow in 3 degree weather. My feet were perfectly warm. The quality is superior. The size is a bit large, but not uncomfortably so. I bought them on-line directly from Sorel as no local stores carry half sizes. The order process was simple. This will be the last pair of winter boots that I ever have to buy!

Growing up in Upper Michigan, specifically the Keweenaw Peninsula, where the annual snowfall totals 30 plus feet, I always had a pair of Sorels. Back then they were hand-me-downs but as much playing as we did in the snow, they always kept my feet warm. Years later and living in the Dakotas now, it is little bit colder here but not nearly as much snow but when it is time to snow-blow the driveway, there is nothing better. Warm, waterproof and comfortable and without a doubt the best pair of winter boots on the market. Not to many places sell them out here but my online shopping and shipping worked great. This is one company that has my business and loyalty for life.

Like so many others. I bought these boots back in 1988 and they still look great today. I used to keep them in my truck whenever I was going off-road in mud or snow. They are super easy to just hose off when muddy. The price seemed ridiculous back in the day but considering I still have them I think they are probably the cheapest boots I've ever owned.

My feet get cold easily so I bought a pair of Pacs years ago and they're finally wearing out. I tried a cheaper boot but my feet were still cold. I put on a pair of heavy sox and these are just perfect! y feet haven't gotten cold at all. And I found that by not lacing them tight, I could slip my foot in and out and wear them without having to tie them up every time. Much easier for running in and out! If I need to lace them up for deeper snow, it's quick and easy. Perfect for my Alaskan lifestyle!

These boots were purchased as a gift for my husband and he is thrilled with his present! The boots were exactly as described on-line and the fit was true to size. This is his second pair of these exact boots. He still has the first pair (over 20 years old) and uses them for work. A great boot to keep feet warm and dry!

Love this boot for its practicality. Wider than Sorel's prettier boots, which means it will aid stability and its tread perfect for packed or fresh snow. My feet are always cold until I wear these. So if you are outside walking in snow with your beast, towing a couple kids across a parking lot, carrying all your ski gear from the car to the lodge, or you do your own shoveling, this is your boot. Did everything winter in these: Explored outdoors, attended lots of hockey games, snowmobiled, walked dogs, sledding, and they were awesome. Always warm, super comfy and stable in winter conditions. They look a little beefier than Sorel's sister boots but hey, when you are actively and comfortably enjoying your life, people are looking at the smile on your face instead of the best active winter boot you can buy.
