The Caribou is very hard to get in and out of...I usually have someone pull them off for me.
They are fairly warm but I wouldn't say good for -40 as rated
The treads are great!
I didn't feel as though they were really bulky or hard to walk in.
I really do like the boots except for the fact they are so difficult to get on and off. I almost wish I had gotten the mens for that reason, I think they would have been easier to remove.

I actually ordered these boots in a size 8 and when I got them they were really big. I returned them for the size 7 and they fit great. Still room for thick comfy socks and are very comfortable. They are a little heavy but I figure it gives me a bit more support out on the snow and ice. They go with everything from leggings to jeans and even my sweater dresses. I am very pleased with this purchase and Sorel has made a lifetime customer out of me.

At first I thought they were was to manly. And then I walked my dog in 2 ft of snow, and now I love these boots. Super warm, super comfy, and quite cute!
They do run large. I wear a 7.5 so I got the 7, but I wish I purchased the 6.

I first saw these boots in a fashion magazine and the owner talked about how fashionable they were. Sorel was a brand with which I was not familiar - so I went online to Zappos and found them on sale. The boot is awesome. Not sure I would call it fashionable - but I'm middle aged and have probably different fashion standards. I love the boot though and will have it for easily another 30 years. It is very well made, totally waterproof and the best thing about it is the inner "bootie" that comes out. There is no zipper but the boots are very easy to put on and take off. They are warm - I highly recommend them. They were a tiny bit bigger than I thought, but I have heavy socks and they will fit inside easily. Sorel rocks the house - as does Zappos!

Love these boots! Great for Michigan winters! Use for walking our dog, shoveling etc. I'm a size 5 or 6...5 was too small. The 6 fits wonderfully with just the right amount of room for thick or thinner socks. Love the black and stone color!

these boots definately live up to their hype. I had bought some sorels for my boyfriend for christmas and after hearing him talk about how much he loved them i decided I'd buy myself some. Now I'm hooked!

I am very pleased with these boots. They were completely comfortable and kept my feet very warm. They did not slip on my feet when I walked like to many other snow boots do.

My husband has a pair of Sorel's, that I always "borrowed" when I had to go help shovel; they were more comfortable than my snow boots (another brand). I finally decided to purchase a pair of Sorel's for myself, and after a nice little snow storm, and lots of shoveling, I am very pleased with my purchase. They are comfortable to walk in, provide good traction, and kept my feet warm and dry.

Super comfortable and warm. Wish they were a bit cuter, but are super practical. They are a bit bulky when you walk, but the warmth makes up for it!

I love my Sorel's. I have three pair from zappos! the Caribou is perfect height to jump into with anything from skinny jeans to ski pants with wider leg openings as the height fits under or over pant leg the boots are water resistant, super warm and 'throw back' cool.

Very warm and comfortable! I usually wear a size 9 or 9 1/2 so I ordered a 9 and while it is a bit big, once I put on heavy socks it fits fine. They do make my feet look big, but they keep me warm and are well constructed, I foresee wearing these for a long time!

I bought these to replace a pair I bought years ago for some time I spent in Montana. My old ones fit sloppy, but that's because I let the stupid salesperson in a sporting goods store talk me into the size a little large. My old boots were destroyed and I realized after the first snow storm of the year I needed to replace them. I bought these Sorels and LOVE the way they fit, feel and look. So happy with my new pair...normally I wear a half size but I know these do run large and I'm cozy in my new boots. I just wish it would snow.

I think the Sorel Caribou is the best cold weather snow boot out there. These boots will really keep your feet warm (ask the guys working at ski resorts who are loading you onto the chairlift). Great grippy soles. Lace 'em up right and no snow gets in. Perfect for shoveling snow, if you have to do it! Not great for walking, however, don't try to take a hike in them.

I wear a size 6 1/2 and was disapointed that when I ordered a sigze 7 I could not get my foot in the liner. So that pair is going back and I ordered a size 8, wish they came in half sizes. I stole my first pair from my husband 30 years ago and loved them. I will never be without a pair of Sorel boots.

Just got these and wore them apres ski... Very warm, durable and the tread is good to prevent slipping. I'm sure I'll have them for a long time! I usually wear a 6.5. I got a 6 and they fit well. They are quite heavy, though.

Well I spent the whole day at work with a cold wet foot as the right boot leaked water in. I work outdoors and it was raining so It was not comfy at all. Then I had to pack them up and drive to a UPS Store to return them. Was actually disappointed I have bought several sorels over the years and was suprised it was a bad pair. Just waiting when you recieve them back(on their way last week).Since their winter outdoor work boots its important to have a good pair not sure who I will purchase from next. I love your product but am alittle leary of another uncomfortable day.

After ordering so many other styles of Sorel's and other brands I kept these. They were true to size and the lace-up option were great for my bigger calves. They also look so cute on. The other Sorel's style (I think the Torefino) was not as cool looking in person.

These boots are heavy duty snow boots - great for doing outside work! They keep my feet nice and warm when I am out in the Virginia mountain snow. They are nice to wear when shoveling snow because they have good grip on the bottom. I fantastic outdoor, cold weather boot! They were a little heavier than I thought, but that is what makes them both waterproof and warm. I normally wear a 7.5 but had a more comfortable fit with an 8.

This is a great boot. It's very comfortable. It's very clunky. I'm usually between a size 8 and 9. I purchased a size 9 - they are big with the lining in. I feel as though if I had purchased the 8 - they would have been too small to wear with thick socks and the lining. Without the lining, the size 8 would have been perfect. In conclusion - these need to be made in half sizes.

This is the first winter I've experienced in NY since moving here last May and needed to find a pair of snow boots. I was pretty excited to see these boots and decided to order a pair. Once they arrived and I tried them on, I was so disappointed. They made my feet look enormous. I'm 5'1" tall and wear a size 7 shoe so being short made them look even larger on my feet. They fit well on the inside but on the outside, I looked like I was wearing my father's boots. Unfortunately, I had to return them and get a pair of boots that are made for urban cold weather, not the arctic tundra. I'm sure these boots would work great if I lived in Alaska.

Super warm and comfy. Definitely a must for cold snowy conditions. They're a little bulky, but they're still cute. I ordered an 8 but I ended up sending them back for a 7 because the 8 was huge on me. They can be a little tricky to get into but they're definitely worth it!
