Customer Reviews SOREL Caribou

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

These boots are tremndous. I bought my last pair while living in the Adirondack Mtns in 1980. I kept that same pair until now, thirty years!!! This might be the last pair of boots I buy, not because of the quality,but just because I might not live long enough to buy another. They are great and wouls recommend them highle to anyone that needs to keep their feet warm

these are quite big and bulky, but they're also not for a fashion show - they're for facing the snow. i thought i was superwoman when i went out for the first time to tackle the weather. i slipped on ice right away - haha. but in the snow these are amazing. if you have had a rough winter like we have up in the north east then these are a must. i typically wear a 6.5 or 7 shoe and the 7 in these boots are perfect. run wide.

I live on a college campus in Vermont and I have to have good sturdy footwear to get to class, these are prefect. They fit well, are durable, and are really comfy and warm. < 3

I got these boots after hosting an outdoor winter party where my feet felt so frozen I didn't completely enjoy myself... now that I have these Caribou boots, I feel like my toasty toes could stand many days in the outdoors with no worries! I tested them this past weekend snowmobiling - they are just awesome and I look forward to years of warm feet!

I purchased these boots this winter after my husband bought a men's pair and thought they were fantastic. He was right! We are having a horrible winter on the East Coast. I found the boots I had were ridiculously inadequate. The Sorel Caribou boot is just what I need. Great fit, traction and insulation. I had to do alot of work outside to help get snow and ice off the roof. These boots were awesome!! They didn't fall off my feet when I was navigating my way through the waist deep snowdrifts. Highly recommend!!

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!
