Customer Reviews SOREL Caribou™

I use these all the time. I built a racecourse at Beaver Creek this season and these are the only thing I wear outside of work. I've tried lots of boots from sorel and these ones are a no brainer. I use much heavier boots for work but these guys are warm and comfy when the day is done.

I took a chance on ordering these. After reading the reviews I was planning on ordering a size down (I am normally a 6, I would have ordered a 5). However, there were no 5s available, so I went with the 6. Sad to say they were FAR too large. Please believe the reviews. You will have to return them if you order your normal size. Wasted about $30 in shipping, killer. Other than that, great boot. Pretty heavy-- but aren't winter boots supposed to be?

This is my first Chicago winter and these boots are the best decision I have made. My feet can range from an 8-9; I went for the 8 boot and they are perfect. A little heavy when walking, but most boots are anyway. They keep my feet pretty warm and very dry.

Excellent boot. Unfortunately it was rubbing my ankle. I am a 7.5 , but got a 8 and it was fine accept it didn't fit right.

I think the quality is excellent and I will definitely be wearing these in the snow, as they are completely waterproof. However, I will not be wearing them for fashion if it's just cold outside, which is unfortunate because they are cute and I thought I'd be able to. The reason being, they are just really clunky and huge on my feet. They seem to fit ,y foot ok, it's just the outer parts and soles are just huge and I feel like a caveman wearing them. I ordered women's size 10 but the actual boot said some other size so maybe it's European or men's sizing?

My daughter's size 12+ feet leave little options for choice when it comes to shoes. We were happy to find these. Plus side: Cute boots for women! And: Sorel had a size 12 boot option, in stock, that didn't look like they were made for transvestites (as you find, if you dare to google women's boots/shoes, size 12 & up). Cannot thank Sorel enough for that option! On the negative: Mfgrs seem to think long equals wide as well..so, while the length works, they are too wide for her normal-width foot, thus they bend on the top of the boot as if there's lots of extra room there, each time she walks. Also, it's hard for her to tighten the boot by pulling the laces because they slip back through before she can tie them well. As a side note re quality: they arrived with a blemish- not cool, considering they were not cheap.

my new sorels are built extremely well, look like they'll last forever, are tremendously warm (i haven't tried them at 40 below yet, as it's only been 20 above recently), work well in both city and in field, and look incredibly cool. they felt right the very first moment that i put them on, but actually walking in them takes a bit of getting used to (on my first day i walked 4 miles though, and had no problem whatsoever). they're even good on ice, which is the main reason that i bought them. i'm extremely happy with my purchase of this trusted brand of boots.

Love the boots - super warm. I'm not a fan of a pull out insert - I just find it annoying especially when I'm in a rush to get them off. They're also a bit chunky/wide in front and I prefer something a little smaller.

Best winter boots EVER! Bought my first pair 26 years ago and have NEVER worn another winter boot since...plus great service with Sorel!!! Very Happy!!!

I have had the opportunity to use these boots in -20 temps and -40 below with windchill and my feet have been warm and dry. I would recommend these to a friend! Plus, I know Sorel's last a long time in these conditions. I have no doubt I will be ordering more styles to get through these MN winters :)

I ordered these boots in a size 8, which is my normal shoe size. Counting up the total of the other reviews, true to size vs too large, the true to size won. Unfortunately, I had to return them because they do run large. When standing in them with a snowboard sock on with my heel to the back of the boot I still had a thumb and half inch distance to the end of the boot. I laced them up as tight as I could and walked around my house and already I could tell they would rub wrong on my feet because my foot was moving around (up and down and back and forth) with every step. I tried it with two snowboard socks and they fit a little better with less movement, but it would be rare that I would wear them with two pairs of socks. I called and talked to customer service and the guy recommended that I return them and get a half size smaller. As for the quality, I have not tried them in any situation yet that I could rate the true test of the boot, but from what I saw they looked really well made and felt very warm.

I love these Sorel boots! They are more stylish in black and white than they used to be. The tread on the bottom is very good in the snow and ice. They are warm and comfortable to boot! I highly recommend them.

The Sorel's are beyond the expectations of keeping the feet dry, warm and comfortable and are everything advertised to be. It is important to purchase the true size required for the comfort of walking and stability in weather conditions.

Your boots are excellent quality, warm in the winter and durable. I replaced a pair that I only wear in the snow and they lasted (27) years! (Do you think that I got my money's worth?)

I bought these boots for my son and he said they are very warm and waterproof. His only complaint is that they feel a bit "heavy" and he certainly makes a lot of noise when he clomps around in them! Overall a very practical boot and good-looking, too.

I wear a size 8 shoe and ordered the boot in size 8.5. I tried them on and could barely get my foot into the liner or boot. The size on the tongue said 8.5 but on the bottom of the inside boot said 6.5. So not sure if it was just tagged wrong or the boots run extremely small. Otherwise they looked great and would of worked well for me.

The quality of this boot is excellent, clearly meant to be worn in the worst snow conditions, and I definitely recommend them for that purpose. However, as a woman, I felt that the toe region was TOO wide! They look like men's shoes which I was not expecting. I am keeping them because of the quality, however, I wish that the toe was just a bit narrower to look more feminine. I am only commenting this because I wished I had read it somewhere before buying the shoe so that I was not shocked when I received it.

Classic, warm and comfortable. Will be getting another pair!

Use these for walking on campus in winter. Even with sub zero weather we have been having feet are warm and comfortable
