Customer Reviews SOREL Caribou™

I am a size 10, these looked like a size 14. They were giant! I understand that there needs to be a lot there in order for them to be rated for -40, but I wore them with no sock when it was 25 degrees and for 20 minutes and my toes were frozen. I really can't get over how big they were either, they were bigger than my snowboard boots.

These boots are really too heavy to trek in the snow for any distance. I wish Zappos carried Cougar boots which are just as warm but much lighter and more comfortable because of their reduced weight.

After three winters of wear I am disappointed with the quality of the boot. The first two years I loved the boot because they were warm with a decent grip while walking (although a bit heavy for street walking an extended length of time). I am into my third year of wearing these boots and the rubber has begun to split at the seam. Furthermore, the rubber at the toes is beginning to crack and the soles of the shoes have lost their grip. In regards to fit, the overall fit is large and loose. I like a spacious boot. However, others may not prefer an overall large boot. Also, in deep fluffy snow the top of the boot may allow snow to slip in as the top is a bit wide. I am about to purchase a pair of Baffin Musher boots, I have a feeling I may like these better. The Baffin's have a nylon top with a drawstring to keep out snow and the boots fasten with buckles rather than laces which are easier to adjust with gloves one.

While these boots are true to size in length, they are very wide in the toe. I actually thought I got mens boots by mistake, but they are marked womens, and the size is correct. They are a huge, bulky pair of boots, and are clumsy and heavy to walk in.

This boot looks cute but it is a man's boot, what feels like and looks like they took a man's boot and are selling it as a woman's boot. I wear a 10, the boot was huge and wide, and felt like I had lead feet. If you take out the fur lining than it just rubber inside, it looks cute in the picture but trust me when I say this not a woman's boot. I returned immediately. My husband did like for himself.

I normally wear a size 8.5 and bought the Caribou's in size 8. They are huge! They look like a men's boot (because of the size). I am going to try ordering them in a 7 if I can find them! This is the third pair of Sorel's that I have ordered and sent back now. The Cate The Greats and Joan Of Arctic both run really big as well. You can't beat Zappos 1 day shipping and free returns!

These were so stiff, heavy, and clunky that I think I would have tripped over my own feet if I tried to wear them. Also make your feet look huge. Sent them back.

These shoes are massive. I wear a size 6.5 and they make my foot look huge. They are also super heavy.

The good thing: they kept my feet warm. The bad things: they were extremely heavy; made for a much bigger/thicker foot (man's?) - avoid it if you have a slim build. I had no flexibility in my ankle to be able to drive with them on, or walk comfortably/safely. They seem like boots made for a moonwalk. I returned them.
