Customer Reviews SOREL Caribou™

I've been wearing a pair of leather Uggs for a few years and they are useless in the snow or wet. I live in Atlanta and don't normally have a need for anything more but I enjoy snowboarding and really needed a good pair of boots for my trips to CO and UT. I broke down this year and bought a pair and I'm SO GLAD IT DID! They are wonderful!!! My feet stay dry and warm. I LOVE THEM. Hopefully they will last a good long while.

I live in Upstate NY where we get lots of snow that sticks around for months. I enjoy getting out in it with my golden retrievers and also to feed my birds. The first time I put the boots on I was so surprised at the snug fit because just looking at them they seemed huge. Once outside and traipsing through the snow banks the boots felt like an extension of my feet; no movement inside the boot like with alot of other ones...they were so easy to walk in and great traction too. I've already recommended them to friends so thanks for making a boot that I know will work up here in the North Country for a very long time.

These boots are the only reason my feet stay warm when it's cold outside. I have Raynaud's (very poor circulation in my extremities). If this sounds like you- these boots will probably help you as well! Plus they are very comfortable.

Am extremely happy with these boots. My old boots fell apart this winter ( one of our harder ones) and I was a little stressed with more snow on the way. I ordered these and am happy with the purchase-they are warm, comfortable and easy on/off. A little clunky if you drive a standard but otherwise awesome.

I have heard so much about Sorel boots over the years, I had to find out for myself! I bought a pair of Caribous and I must say, I am impressed! I wore them to take my younger son skiing and my feet were warm the whole time I was out in the snow. They were very comfortable as well! I have spoken to folks who have had Caribous and they have had them for a great many years. I know that I will be saying the same! I love these boots! Keep on making a spectacular product like this and I will be a forever customer. Thanks!

After the big blizzard in Chicago I realized that I need some serious snow boots, I have wanted these for years and I am so happy that I finally have them. My only issue was that the inside lining was too tight so I had some issues taking the boots on and off (I have wider feet so this probably won't be an issue for most people) so I ended up cutting the lining down the middle of the black neoprene area, just enough for my foot to get in and out okay and now they fit perfect. They are so warm and durable, you feel like you can climb a mountain in them and still look cute. I plan on leaving these on until the weather gets above freezing, which in Chicago may be until April.

I bought a pair of gray Caribou women's boots. They are so stylish!! They run a little bit big. I normally wear size 6.5, and their size 6 fits me just right. They are very warm and very durable. If your area snows a lot in the winter, you will definitely need a pair of these!

I love my Caribou boots! I wear a size 11 and ordered a size 10, and they fit perfectly. I got them in black and they ARE waterproof! I absolutely love them. They broke in very well after a few days. They are super warm and I even wear them without socks sometimes! When these get beat up I will definitely get another pair. I will be a lifetime customer!

I got the dark tricolored ones and they feet really nice. My only complaint is sometimes the inner boot gets stuck to my foot, so I have to take them out of the boot and then stuff them back in. Other than that, they're perfect.

I have to say, I was hesitant to buy footwear online as I had never done so before. I like to try things on before I buy but due to the dismal selection of boots locally, I went online and found the Sorel Caribou boots. They were in my price range so I just clicked and that was it. They showed up a few days later and fit perfectly. They even look better than the photo. I am extremely satisfied with this pair of boots and would buy from this company again.

I had a pair of sorel boots for 20 years. They still had great tread but the rubber was starting to crack. Really...20 years? Yep. I had no problems replacing them with your product. These boots wear fantastically and are super comfortable. Big thumbs up!

I have fallen on the ice this Winter twice when wearing other boots. I must say that with my Caribous I tromp through snowbanks and across ice just fine! I did notice that they are a bit clunky and heavy at first but once you get used to them they are perfect. They are a bit hard to drive in but it's just like high heels, once you learn it's easy to do. I wear them to commute to work, I wear them to walk the dog, to shovel and to hike in! My feet are always dry and warm and comfortable. I would suggest ordering a half size bigger because my feet are always an 8 but they are snug. Enjoy!

I've been trying to convince my wife that she needed a pair of these boots for years. She is an event planner and is always outside and she is always cold. I finally went ahead and got her a pair. She is in the midst of a two weekend Ice Festival and she loves the boots. She says that she can now stay outside all day without her feet going numb. I am a photographer and I wore mine while I was in Grand Teton National Park while it was -28F. Feet were toasty warm and they have good grip in deep, crunchy snow.

I purchased these right before we got hit with a blizzard here in Chicago. I received them after the storm. Perfect timing because we got 21 inches of snow! I'm a size 7 but ordered a 6 because I tried on a Sorel boot at a department store and knew they run big. When I first tried them on I was nervous because the liner was really tight. It felt too small but I wore them around the house to break them in. The liner loosened up and the fit was perfect. They feel a little heavy at first but you get use to it and they become more flexible after a few uses. I'm a little bummed that the snow has melted! I wanted to wear my boots a little longer. I received alot of compliments and they look really cute with skinny jeans.

I bought my first pair in 1983. After 28 years of hunting, ice fishing, hiking and otherwise enjoying tough Wisconsin winters, I can honestly say that my feet have never -- and I mean never -- been cold in these boots. Nearly broke my heart to replace them, but I finally just wore them out. Bought my last pair recently -- I won't live long enough to wear them out. These are the finest boots made. Period.

I just received my boots last week and have worn them several times already and have only good things to say about them! First of all, the boots definitely run large. I am usually an 8 and ordered a 7 as I knew that they tended to run a bit large, this was a very good decision. I did find that the boots were a bit stiff when first trying them on however this was cured with in the first wear of the boots. I have been out several times snowshoeing, walking, and in the snow and my feet have not been close to chilly, the boots are very very warm! I look forward to spending the rest of the winter in these awesome boots!

I am a normal 7 7.5 shoe size..Figured I would go with the 8. I ordered the 8 and they were tremendous. I then order the 6 because there was no way the 7 would fit..I knew it..The 6 came and they fit perfect. I LOVE THEM...If you are an 8 but a 7. If you're a 7, buy a 6. Love them and wouldn't trade them for the world.

It has been too long since I have had a pair of Sorel Caribou's to wear as I work and enjoy the season of snow. Now I am back, and oh so happy.

thanks for the boots . 2 pairs for me and my husband. I just guessed at the size, knowing I would wear thick socks with them. They are perfect. easy lace, easy to pull on and off. sturdy construction. really warm, high enuf lugs to step into deep puddles on the melting street curb. good traction. what else, Oh, yeah, I like the colors we got. brun and tan.

These boots definitely run big (I'm a size 10 and my feet are wide but based on other reviews I ordered a 9 and it's perfect). They are cute, comfortable and warm. Highly recommend.

These boots are super comfy and warm! They are a little big, I wish they came in 1/2 sizes.

Three brutal winters later, I finally caved and invested in winter boots! These boots are amazing, best hundred dollars I've ever spent-- no lie! So warm, perfect fit that is true to size, the all around perfect all purpose winter boot. Would absolutely recommend these boots to anyone!

Got these as a Christmas present and my brother got me my regular size 6 in them. I must say that they run a little big, and I like my boots snug so I ordered a 5 and I think they fit great! So warm that sometimes I wish we would get 12 inches just so I had an excuse to wear them everyday! A little stiff at first but easy to get used to! I love them!

These are good boots. They are good looking, well made, water proof and warm. I use them during winter outings with the scout troop, clearing snow, ice fishing and snow shoeing. I wear a medium weight wool sock leaving room for my foot to move just a little. I recommend putting Caribou's on just before heading into the cold. If you need to travel before going out wear travel shoes. When you arrive, change socks and then put on your Sorel's. You will start with dry socks and your feet will stay warm and dry! I recommend these boots to others and bought a pair for my son as well.

i love these boots--they are just right for walking the dog in a chicago winter with lots of snow--warm waterproof and easy to get on and off
