Customer Reviews SOREL Caribou™

I bought these for my 17 year old daughter and have borrowed them when I had to spend hours standing outside in 10 degree weather. My feet never got cold. They are somewhat clunky but serve the purpose of warmth and kept my feet dry. I am a 5.5 and my daughter a size 6. I purchased them in a 5.5 and they fit my daughter perfectly. Quality seems sturdy. We haven't owned them long enough to fairly comment on how they will hold up.

We are really pleased with these boots. The whole experience with Sorel was just great, from working with their online site thru the ordering and delivery process. I needed to get some advice on sizing and fit so I called Sorel, and the customer service person was just great. I'd certainly buy from them again without hesitation.

Bought as a gift for my wife. She says they are comfortable and warm. Just the thing for negitive temps and deep snow. Great product.

Awesome for cold and wet weather!

Warm...check! Dry feet...check! Warm and Dry after several hours...check! Reasonable price...check! Comfortable, but a bit clunky. The clunky is a small trade-off for warm and dry which are high on the priority list. These are my second pair and I only had to buy them because my feet outgrew the last 15 year old pair. Excellent boots!

warm,dry, high stability, but heavy. an acceptable compromise

Bought these boots for a trip to Michigan where i knew the temperatures would be very cold, and my feet, which have become used to flip-flops these past 6 years, would need some help to keep warm. The Caribou boots did not disappoint me. Having owned Sorels back when i lived in Michigan, i was familiar with their quality and ruggedness. These features remain to this day. i spent a day walking over 5 miles in the woods and snowmobiling, and my feet were NEVER cold. Money well-spent, if anyone is hesitating due to the price. Love these boots and can't wait to go back up to play in the snow again.

Given as an early Christmas gift to my daughter this year because the forecast merited it, these Caribous have proven themselves, over the past 2 frigid snow and ice weeks, to make winter treks home both safe and pleasurable. The tread works on an uphill mile to her house; the insulation works in below zero temps. She expects to love wearing them for 20 years. Thanks Sorel!

I received a pair of these as a gift for my 13th birthday in 1986. I recently turned 40, and these remain the only winter boots I've had during that time. I've replaced the liners once, about 12 years ago, but other than that there are literally no quality issues, not even so much as a single frayed thread. I have some tread wear on the heels and a little bit of wear on the leather because my ankles rub together. I've lived in Colorado my entire life and I wear these boots every time it snows. Maybe the rubber doesn't shine like it used to, and the leather has some wrinkles to it, but they're as warm and as waterproof as the day I got them. I wish more outdoor gear had this kind of durability.

I have had sorel boots for the past 40 years and your standards are just as good now as they were way back when. In the next few days the temp is going down to -14 I will only go outside to if I have on sorels. These boots are the best ever.

Just used these for the first time during the big snow storm that started on New Years day 2014, the one that had -0 temps and lower across the Midwestern and Northeastern United States. Really glad I had them, made shoveling the driveway a lot more comfortable then it would have been without them for sure. I like that they fit a little big with plenty of extra space, I have Sasquatch feet and with these boots I have plenty of room for a pair of thick wool socks with enough room that I could easily wear a second pair, and I also really like the new updated look of the black on black with beige trim. These are the second pair of Sorel boots I've owned, the first pair I bought about 20 years ago when I was in my early 20's now I'm in my early 40's and these new boots fit exactly like the first pair did, if these last as long as the first ones did, I'll be in my 60's when they need to be replaced!

The boots are awesome and shipping was quick and efficient.

I purchased the boots for my son for his birthday. He works outside every day no matter what the temperature is. His feet are alway's very warm and dry. Would recommend this product.

These boots rock. They will keep your feet warm, dry and comfy. They are real-deal snow boots and are built to last.

I recently purchased a pair of Sorel Caribou Boots. This is my third pair of similar Sorel boots in 34 years. I have lived in CO, WNY, and NE Ohio these many years. I wear my Sorels all winter and drive any of my three manual cars with these, no problem. I am a treestand crossbow hunter and depend on the these for comfort. The Caribou soles are superior to any of my older models as they have the best traction in snow and on floor surfaces. We average 14 to 20 feet of snow here in NE Ohio and even bought my wife a pair; great products, the ONLY winter boot!

Overall I love the boots! I live in Boston area and I have dogs so I'm out walking every day. The boots have great traction and keep my feet very warm. They are larger sized, I normally wear a size 10 and order a 9.5, probably could have used the 9 but kept the 9.5 for thicker socks.

Comfortable, looks great and are exactly as they were described! Can't wait for the snow.....

Actually, this review is based on the first pair of boots I bought 23 years ago, and they are still perfect and going strong. This order was for a pair of boots for my daughter. They arrived on time, and fit well. They look just as dependable and warm as my originals.

I bought these for my wife for Christmas. Contrary to many of the reviews I read before buying them, you should buy your correct size.

After purchasing a pair of Sorel snow boots for myself when we moved to Colorado, it was time for my boyfriend to get a reliable, warm and non-slip snow boots too. I got a pair of these bad boys for him for Christmas, and based on other reviews, I ordered his exact size. I am really glad that the Sorel website has half sizes available, because the rounded up or down sizes would not have fit. So do yourself or your loved one a favor and get a pair of these boots. They look stylish as all heck and ensure warm feet on cold days outdoors.

thanks for having big sizes quick shipping good boots

My wife is very satisfied with the construction and warmth of these boots, she no longer has to return to our truck or sit by a fire to warm up her feet. GREAT PRODUCT!

I've had several pairs of these boots over the years. living in Alaska they were the "go to" boot for my hobbies and work.

I bought these for my boyfriend because he is constantly outside in a place where snow never seems to stop coming down. He says that they are absolutely warm and will continue to be a future customer. We are very happy with the purchase.

I bought the charcoal gray color and love them!
