Product Description When skiers and snowboarders lovingly refer to their "Sorels" it's almost a sure thing that they are talking about their Sorel Caribou snow boots. That's because this popular and proven snow boot remains a winter cornerstone throughout decades of tough use--and the originals still keep a steady footing around day lodges and chalets. Beneath the waterproof nubuck upper and soft acrylic/wool snow cuff on the Sorel Caribou is a removable 9-mm. ThermoPlus felt inner boot that's rated to -40F, the sort of warmth you need from the first flake to the last melting slop. Sorel recently refined the outsole with an Aerotrac natural rubber sole (it will mark light floors) but all the durability remains the same.
Amazon.com Product Description Sporty, cozy, and made to stand up to even the coldest temperatures, the Caribou is a durable and fashionable boot that keeps your feet warm and dry no matter what the weather. Featuring a seam-sealed waterproof leather upper, handcrafted waterproof vulcanized rubber shell, and removable and washable nine-millimeter ThermoPlus felt inner boot liner with snow cuff, this rugged shoe is great for winter sports or long walks in the woods. Able to withstand temperatures as cold as negative 40 degrees, the Caribou also boasts an AeroTrac non-loading rubber outsole for an extra steady step.

No Deal!! October 2, 2008 Don't be fooled!! I live in Alaska where everything's more expensive and I got the same exact boot for $65 REGULAR PRICE!!! what a joke!@!
No Customer Service on Defective Product September 21, 2008 My wifes Sorel boots literally fell apart the first time she wore them.The soles fell off! I wrote and called Sorel but they refused to reapair or replace the boots due to some aqusition that has nothing to do with me! Amazingly poor customer service and product.
Love these boots! March 4, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I live in a wet climate, not a ton of snow, but these boots are great. Super warm and waterproof. Great for heading out to the mountains or for just going to the dog park. I think they do run a bit big....I wear a 9 and there is room for my foot to move a bit, however, not an issue when I wear thicker socks. I ordered the Buff, but received the black...however, I liked the black so much I decided to keep them.
Great boots! January 14, 2008 These boots are great! They kept my feet warm and dry in the Minnesota snow. They're really comfortable, have really good traction, and are also pretty cute.
Probably your best choice for a warm basic snow boot October 10, 2007 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
These 10" high winter boots set the standard for basic cold weather boots in snowy conditions. They're probably the boot most commonly worn by locals in snowy Western mountain towns.
But be advised they do not have a lot of lateral stability in the sole of the boot. That is to say, the rubber bottoms tend to twist sideways making them, in my opinion, unsuitable for anything other around town use and possibly some work situations. The twisting motion makes traveling off beaten paths, especially climbing hills or side hilling, more difficult and tiring. My seven year old (Canadian made) Sorel Caribou models have somewhat thicker and probably more water resistant leather uppers, but the current (Chinese made) Sorels seem to have more advanced combination synthetic and wool felt liners and apparently much-needed additional underfoot insulation.
These boots have a cool look with the faux shearling collars but their relatively modest height means you will need to wear gaiters to keep out snow if you leave beaten paths. Felt lined pacs are typically the warmest boots for the bucks and the liners can be taken out to dry. I've washed my Sorel liners on gentle cycle using wool-friendly soap with excellent results and spraying some Armorall (used to perk up rubber and plastic in cars) on the rubber bottoms keeps them looking great as well.
Recommended to anyone who wants a warm, foolproof, traditional looking boot to wear in around-town or to cold weather outdoor events, keep in the car for emergencies and possibly wear to work or riding snow machines in really cold weather.
