Customer Reviews SOREL Caribou™

These are great boots for large amounts of snow. However, if you are looking for something to wear to the mall or store, I would look for something else. These boots are very heavy. After wearing for a few days in a row, my back begins to hurt from lugging around the extra weight. When I have worn them outside in deep amounts of snow, I have stayed dry and warm. The weight of the boot is just very bothersome. My only other complaint, a minor one, is I cannot get the liner to stay in one boot when I take it off. I can live with that, though.

Love these boots. Wore them for the first time this weekend in the blizzard that hit and felt like an arctic Goddess! So warm, so comfy and feeties dry. They are quite big and heavy, but I was expecting that and am very happy with these boots!

I love these boots - super cozy warm, and perfect to wear apres-ski. Order up not down though!

Serious boots! I just read the other reviews and noted the comments about big, funny, heavy. These are serious boots for serious people. All the ski instructors in the Tahoe basin wear them. The challenge is to get them looking a bit old. They like to stay new looking for a long time. I bought mine (from Zappos of course) seven years ago. They still look new. Moreover, heavy boots make skinny thighs.

The boots are very warm, but I can barely walk in them because they're so stiff. The soles don't bend!

I am a true size 6.5. I have had Sorels in the past, size 7, which were too big. I purchased these very cute boots in size 6, but they were too short. Width felt fine.

These boots are huge. They were so big it looked like I had cartoon feet. If you plan on being in a blizzard, buy them. If you plan on wearing them for everyday winter, beware - they are hilariously big. I laughed when I pulled them out of the package. It would take me ten minutes to get up or down one flight of stairs. That's all.

I wear a 7 1/2 and many of these reviews said that these boots are a size too big. So I went back and ordered a size 6 in addition to the 7. I walked around the house in both sizes for a couple weeks and ultimately decided on the 7. I do agree, these are a size too big and if they made half sizes, a 6 1/2 would be perfect. I tried them out in about 5 feet of snow this weekend in Tahoe and my feet stayed warm and dry. I got many compliments on them and if worn with with your jeans tucked into the boot, they really don't look too bulky or like 'clodhoppers'. I also bought an additional liner for these so if I wear my jeans over the boots, there will just be less bulk without the furry cuff on the top of the liner. My only complaint is the liner always comes out when you take the boot off. I've tried to hold the liner in but it still comes out enough that I have to push it back in and adjust it. Otherwise, they are perfect!

These do run big. I usually wear a 7 US but got these a full size smaller. Because they are so warm though I only need to wear a thin sock. These boots are great though. Warm, comfy, and give you great stability on snowy, icy surfaces. They are heavy but not as heavy as other snow boots. I highly recommend these boots!
