Customer Reviews SOREL Caribou™

The boot shaft is very stiff and doesn't flex when I walk. Therefore, The top of the shaft cuts into my shin. The sizing runs big by about 1/2 a size.

I bought these boots for a trip to Norway where I would be wearing them in a lot of snow and ice. As mentioned in another review, they are slippery on ice. I slid backwards down an icy sidewalk & luckily was stopped by the person behind me. I stood outside from 6-10 hours, (looking for northern lights), & they were warm enough wearing 3 pairs of socks & they are definitely waterproof, but the size & lack of grip made them hard to walk in. Overall I wasn't satisfied & would not recommend.

A friend recommended I get Sorel boots so that I can enjoy football season outside during winter. I was excited to try out these Sorel Caribou boots, even though they are the ugliest boots I have ever seen. Well, I couldn't even get my foot inside the boot--even with the laces opened all the way. So I'm sending them back.

I have a pair of tall, quilted Keens that I’ve owned for years. They have gotten me through playing in the snow with my son and also look nice enough to wear to work with leggings and a sweater. Lately I had noticed that they were getting damp after wearing them outside. My feet were getting cold and as is pretty typical with Keens, the footbed starts to hurt after a while. So I was on a mission to find something new that was comfortable, more weather proof but still trendy. Not easy with snow boots. I’d been eyeing this style for a while. After reading endless reviews and seeing them go on sale, I decided to take the plunge. What a bummer. Although the boots ‘look good’ right out of the box, they were SO big and clunky. I felt like I had cinder blocks on my feet! I literally had a hard time walking. The foot bed was hard and they were very stiff overall. Sadly they are going back.

Nice looking warm winter boot, but I really think they are marked wrong. I normally wear a 10 and I originally purchased these for my daughter who is an 8.5. She couldn't wear them as they were so big. I wear them now instead and like I said, I am a size 10 and they feel a little big on me too. I would have exchanged them, but of course my daughter never told me until a year later that they were so big.

These boots were very heavy and bulky because of the rubber front. The tread was also very heavy duty. Sadly, I'm returning them.

I bought these boots mainly because of how they looked and the potential to be a great shoe for the snow. However, they did get returned for two reasons. Although the size in length was true, the boot is wider then anticipated. I did put on a thick sock, but still felt there was no width support when walking. The other problem was the weight of the boot. There is a lot of rubber and leather which made them heavy and again less controllable. So between the width and weight I felt this boot was too clunky. Looked good on your foot though!

I really wanted to love these; however, I’m looking for what sorel used to have. These are just incredibly bulky and heavy duty (great if you’re using them for work) I just really wanted something that was cute comfortable and functional. These are NOT cute lol.

Ended up returning these. They were huge on my feet and not comfortable.

Heavy and bulky, hard to walk in, and oversized.

These are heavy and clunky. The bulk made them hard to walk around. If you want them as a snow boot, they’re probably ok. But if you need more functionality for running errands, then not good.

The boots are great looking but very heavy and stiff. Hard to walk around in.
