Customer Reviews SOREL Caribou™

Warm ,dry ,and comfortable .What more do you need to say .Like walking in your living room no matter the conditions outside .Great buy

With an impending snowstorm coming, and having no waterproof cold weather boots, I ordered my Sorels and could not be happier! I originally tried on a pair in a store, however, true to my size. They were quite large, so I ordered a pair one size smaller and they fit great. They were a bit awkward to put on at first, but you get used to it. With these boots I my feet stay toasty and dry, even in below zero weather and two feet of snow. I would highly recommend them! I also am confident they will last a long long long time!

These boots are unreal. I have lived in Ohio for 5 years, and every winter I would put myself through unnecessary suffering due to having my feet get cold. I used to shovel snow in my Nike shoes for crying out loud. But not anymore! I asked my brother-in-law who is a professional rock climber and sales rep for different outdoor companies what the best winter boots under $150 were, and he said the Sorel Caribou. And he is right! These boots are amazing! My feet have not been cold ever since I got them, and so far we've had a snow storm where I saw 6-8 inches of snow, and now an ice storm! I am wearing these boots EVERY day. The only thing is I wish I had gotten a smaller size, but apart from that, they are unbelievably fantastic. You will not be disappointed. I promise you. Thanks Sorel!

I bought these to replace a pair of Sorel boots I bought about 14 yrs ago in a similar style. Don't get me wrong, I still wear them- you can't wear them out! I wanted to get a new pair as now I am working in brutally cold temperatures and needed a newer updated boot with all the latest fabrics and technologies infused into them to keep my feet their warmest in below 0 degree temperatures. My feet don't even know it's that cold outside when I'm out there, as they keep them incredibly warm. They are the most comfortable boot I have ever owned, and they are true to size, I'm extremely happy with my purchase. I highly recommend these boots. You won't be disappointed.

I live on Long Island (NY) and we have gotten 7 snow storms since Dec 26, most of them 8 inches and more. The last one was 16.5 inches. That's huge for this area. I am so glad I bought these boots. The fit great and keep my feet toastie warm and dry!

Just moved to the frozen winter wasteland that is Cleveland, Ohio from the milder climate of Washington, D.C. and my old hiking boots that have worked well for the past decade couldn't handle the winter up here. These boots are warm, waterproof, and keep the snow out. Great for walking dogs (and traversing the sidewalks that nobody cares to clean) and shoveling the snow that never seems to end. Despite being a bit heavy after a long walk, they do a great job and I would recommend to anyone who isn't acclimated to the cold.

I have had my Caribou boots for over 20 years now. I got them while I was living in Seattle, because back in the day snowboard binding took these types of boots. I have kept them over the years and after living in Chicago for over 15 years now they are still my go to boots for heavy snow over my North Face ones. These boots last FOREVER and I have noticed a HUGE comeback in the brand. It seems like I have been ahead of the trend for a very long time.

I bought these for my daughter, who needed something warm and waterproof for getting around campus. I ordered 1/2 size larger after reading some of the other revieiws. They arrived right on time, in 3 days and right before some -8 to -10 degree weather. She is thrilled, her feet are finally warm and dry, Funky look!

Bought these boots for my nephew just in time for the big LI storm! Said they kept his feet toasty warm as he shoveled away! And he looked good doing it! My driveway is ready for the next blizzard. Told him I got my Caribou's before he was born- and he's now a sophomore in high school! He did the math and realized he has many years of shoveling in them ahead!!! Great product.

Top quality, design and overall a great product. Keeps you warm and they are soooo nice!

The boots are great! I've ordered them for years. I always order replacement liners to get a better fit. The replacement liners are twice as thick, and have a pocket in the bottom for foot warmers if you want to use them. The boots seem to run about a 1/2 size larger without the replacement liners.

Two weeks ago, I wanted the buff color (above), but there was a huge storm over a lot of the northern part of the country and the colors and sizes were low. I ordered a 7 in slate, but it was too small and I just returned it a few days ago. I generally take a 7 or a 7 and 1/2 shoe. Meanwhile, the sizes and colors were restocked, and I ordered a size 8 Caribou in the buff (above) and it arrived today, in time for more shoveling. I took a walk to the store 1/2 mile each way and wore it the rest of the day, driving and shoveling. Very comfortable. The 8 fits very well and I will get a lot of use out of these. Whenever I mention the Sorel Caribou to someone, they know of it and said it is their all-time favorite boot, too.

I remember these boots from the 70's. I didn't have a pair but envied friends that did. I have RA and my feet are very sensitive to the cold. Well they haven't been cold since I got these. They are kind of wide and clunky but wonderfull.

I Love my Sorels!!! I live in North New Jersey and for the last couple of weeks we had 2 snow storms. Needless to say that I shoveled, played in the snow and my toes stayed warm and toasty. I'm a size 6 1/2 to 7 I ordered them in size 6 and they feel very comfortable. They are my favorite boots so far. I know they will last a long time! I can't wait to go to my inlaws (they live in Maine) to show them off!

Got my boots after getting a pair for my wife for Christmas since she raved about hers. Love the felt liners...can't beat them for comfort and warmth. Only complaint is that I wish they came in half sizes...I'm an 11 1/2 and had to go with a 12, so they're a little big on me.

I got these boots a few weeks ago and have worn them out and about in the recent midwestern snowstorms as well as in the mountains of Colorado. They've kept my feet warm and dry, and I've been very pleased with them. Driving with them takes some getting used to, but it's not too bad. And they do run a bit big. I usually wear a 7.5, so I ordered a size 7. They fit great with heavy socks, but with normal socks, they're a tiny bit big. Overall, they're exactly what I was looking for in a boot, and I would strongly recommend them!

My first pair of caribou boots were purchased 20 years ago. I replaced the liners twice throughout that time. I am just now getting my second pair even though my first pair still has life left in it. I have never been disappointed in any type of weather when using these boots. Living in Michigan, they are perfect!

The Caribou boots are warm and wonderful, as we might expect from Sorel--Sorels are awseome. Be sure to order your regular size! I ordered a size smaller after reading numerous reviews. I sometimes take a 5 1/2 in a shoe so ordered a 5 instead of a 6. Big mistake. I take a six in these as I always do in a boot (and in some shoes). True-to-size!!!

I have recently purchased the black Caribou for myself and have more than enjoyed trolling around inside and out with them. They are slightly large due to ms really being a 6.5 and these only run in whole sizes. I originally found these boots because my mother in law had purchased her son a pair of the original color Caribou and he loved them as well. I would most definately incourage someone to purchase these boots!

I probably look a little funny walking around the streets of Manhattan in boots that are meant for Colorado-like snow, but after all the snow we've been getting here, I couldn't be happier that I have these Sorel's! I literally stomp through slushy puddles without a second of hesitation. They're completely waterproof, and the tred is awesome for the snow and ice. They're super warm. I've only been wearing them with thin trouser socks so far, and have no need for anything thicker. I walk over a mile to work in them, and have found them to be extremely comfortable. The one thing I will definitely say is that they run big. I ordered a 6, and I'm normally a 7. The woman I spoke with in customer service assured me that I should order a size smaller, and she was definitely right. The 6 is perfect for me. Overall, the boots are great. They were exactly what I was looking for!

Great winter/snow boot!! They do run big, I'm normally an 8, purchased a 7, fit is perfect. They are incredibly warm, perfect for playing in the snow with toddlers. They do feel a bit "klunky" at first, but you adjust to them quick!!! I purchsed the boot in black - love 'em. Great boot, can't say enough really... Thanks, Sorel!!!

These boots are SEXY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are a great gift, all my women are SOREL women!!!!!!!!! The boots are fantastic for Boston winter weather. If your wearing a skirt or wearing jeans they look great on. Fighting cold deep snow or walking through city slush these boots do the trick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The quality is there for years, you can not find a better boot. They are mountain booots, city boots and all the time boots. When the weather hits hard. All I can say is the work..........I am in law enforcement and wish they made an all black men's caribou to include the liner..........Stay Happy, Stay Warm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

beautiful boot well made perfect for the cold weather !!!!

Replaced my last pair, only lasted 25 years, with these beauties. Nice urban theme color scheme, Noir on Noir. Always practical, just kick em off at the door, slip on in on the way out. Massive traction, completely dry and warm. Look stylish plowing through the slush and mush. Why not go with the proven leader Sorel? Your toes will be toasty and your mind free to enjoy the journey. In survival school they teach you to always have an extra pair of dry socks. Cause once your feet are wet and cold your mind goes next. Zero chance of this ever occurring sporting Sorel Caribou.

I really like these boots and highly recommend them. I have worn them in deep snow, slush, and puddles and my feet always stay dry and warm. They take a little while to break in and I was walking kind of funny at first, but it didnt take long for them to loosen up. I am usually an 8-8.5 so I ordered an 8. Once my foot is inside, even with the lining in, I feel that they are kind of big. But, I have no trouble walking in them now and my feet stay very comfortable so I can't complain. My boyfriend and sister are jealous of my snow boots and are going ot get a pair of these for themselves!
