Customer Reviews SOREL Caribou Wool

Boot is high quality as usual but seems to run very small. I have several pairs of Sorel boots in 7.5 but in these I have already bought and returned both a 7.5 and an 8 because they were both too small

I was impressed with the warm lining and burly sole of these boots, but the stiffness of the boot irritated my ankles when I tried them on, so I returned them. I typically wear a size 7 shoe and got these in a 6.5 after trying them on in-store. The 6.5 was a little big... in just the right way for a boot like this that I'd wear with thick socks.

These boots were very snug and warm and so comfortable, but even though I ordered down a half size to a 7 1/2, they made my feet look enormous! I felt like I was wearing giant man boots! I decided to return for the more feminine looking Joan of Arctics.

The boot are quality. However, they are very heavy! They are difficult to remove, even when places are loosened. The toe area is wide and clunky, pressing both the gas and brake pedal in my car at the same time! I now have to hold my right boot at certain angles to engage only the gas or brake pedals. I wish the boots were generally more comfortable and they cannot be returned.

They are warm and comfortable. However, they are not very slimming; very chunky.

Purchased 9 which I wear, purchased online and never wore sorel before. Very heavy, wide and run big should have went with 8 1/2.

These boots are too heavy and bulky for what I was looking for. They are very warm! I'll be returning

I recently bought a new pair of Caribou boots (my old ones lasted for almost 20 years!!). I bought the same size and so far they are much narrower than my old pair. I hope they break-in with more use.

These boots are very slippery slipped so many times while getting of the train they are warm and kept my feet dry in the snow and rain i just wish it had better grips had to buy a different brand of boots

These boots look very cute and keep my feet warm. I live where there is snow for most of the winter, so I usually just throw on my boots to run to the store, etc. They are really not that comfortable to walk around in. They rub against my calf and it just feels awkward and clunky.

I really want to love these shoes. I feel like I am the only person that has sizing issues? I ordered 2 pairs: my size and a half size down and I'm swimming in them. Hoping the 3rd pair fit correctly.

I bought these for trips to snowy areas, Massachuchets and Colorado. They did the job, but I would not recommend this style for others. I found the boot to be very heavy and hard to tie tightly. Additionally, it fit great everywhere except the toe are. It narrows greatly at the toes in the inside liner. Had the liner been a touch larger in the toe area, the boot would fit great. It was however great at keeping my feet dry!

I just bought my second pair so I have no idea how this pair will do. The last pair were great and lasted 7 years. Unfortunately, the evaluation is requested even before it has adequately snowed here. Whoever is sending out the requests for reviews needs to take a look at the weather and send out the request for reviews after adequate weather has taken place to confirm the quality. It's stupid to write a review of an untested product, and that's what the review program is asking of me.

I purchased these to have a boot to wear in the cold weather in Minnesota and for the Iowa snows. These boots fit large and made my size 8.5 feet look like a mens 11. They were very warm, but felt heavy and too large to walk properly in. I ended up exchanging them for a 1964 PAC 2 which are the warmth I was looking for along with the size.

I got these boots for chirstmas. I am usually a size 7 but when I bought them in store the clerk recommended I went up to 7.5. Unfortunately this was a terrible idea. The were too big and my foot slipped. I tried to put an insole in them before I returned them because I really liked them a lot. I found that when I walked in them, the back of the boot bent and hit me right on my Achilles tendon and caused a huge blister. Has anyone else ran into this issue? I am wondering if I order a 7 if this will help or if it is a design flaw in the boot? HELP

These boots are adorable for walking around town, waterproof, good for 30 degree weather. Make sure to wear proper mix calf socks thick enough to prevent ankle blisters. There is a thick edged solid glue seam located near ankle inside of the boot shell that will easily tear up your ankles.

I was so excited to wear my new boots for our snowy weekend! I bought them because I know Sorel is good quality, and I love the way they look! I wore them with mid-leg socks and tight jeans but they hurt my heels and Achilles badly! I know the size is correct. They fit my feet okay, they just rub that area. I'm going sock shopping. Maybe some thicker socks will help? I hope so. Because they were pricey and I love the way they look.

These boots are nice and warm - my complaint is that my laces are already destroyed due to the metal hooks. I've only had them for a few months. Disappointed in that. I will need to buy new ones already.

I have had this version boot for 5 years and love it. I am disappointed because while I love the color and look of this boot, the foot and ankle part of it is way too wide. It looks like a woman's boot on top and a man's wide boot on the botttom. This leaves too much room for the foot. I am so sorry to have to return these.

The boots were comfortable however mine were too large and therefore had to be returned. Other than the fit too large, which I now know I have to go to a retail store to try on, they would have been perfect. The style of the caribou was super cute, stylish and very warm. Once I try on at a store I'm sure these boots will last a VERY long time.

I live in New York, and I needed something that was really good for the snow, but I have to say while these are such great boots and I'm sure would be amazing in areas where you get tons of snow all the time, they are just way too heavy and bulky. I would recommend for those who are looking to wear something that will keep them warm and still be able to function (I commute daily on the train, the bus, and walk a lot), stay away from these. I just ordered the Winter Fancy boots so hopefully those will be great for day to day and snow as well :) In terms of fit, I'm usually an 8.5-9, I sized down to an 8 and it fit perfectly.

These boots will keep your feet warm and dry. However, I need the secret to putting these boots on and taking them off. I have high insteps and practically take off the skin on the top of my feet! I even cut the elastic strap inside thinking it would help. Nope! Takes forever to get the boots on and off.
