I bought this pair online, looking for the Sorel model that is most like the pair of Sorels that I've had for 30 years, and which are the best pair of winter footware I've ever ownes - and I'm 69 years old and live in frozen Vermont. The old pair finally started to wear out and leak after 28 years - wth two more years of life thanks to treatment with Shoe Goo sealer. The new pair are every bit as warm, comfortable and well made as the original pair. I like the fact that they can be worn loose-laced or laced up tightly. Are they as durable as my original pair? - I'll let you know in about three decades! JN, Colchester, Vermont. Oh, the size - I wear size 13 sneakers and shoes, and my old Sorels are size 13. The new Sorels I ordered are size 13 and fit perfectly, not at all loose.
I would recommend this product.

I finally had to replace my 30 year old Sorel boots. The metal rings rusted away from years of winter snow plowing and spreading salt. The new pair fits great, true size 9 and the quality is close to what it was many years ago. I hope the new pair can last as long! The price was 30% lower buying direct from Sorel than the big box sporting goods retailer.
I would recommend this product.

I would not recommend any soreal boot similar to this one.Although very warm and comfortable the rubber will crack and dry rott.This boot was purchased less than two years ago and with limited use of two MILD ohio winters they are gonna half to be thrown out.Apparantly this is real COMMON with these boots.So heres your review after being properly worn not a review from someone who just bought them and are still new with little wear.I have been asked below this comment what my FOOTWEAR ATTITUDE IS and my answer is one that will keep my feet dry and warm and will justify the price.
I do not recommend this product.

So far so good. Haven't used them in the mountain yet. I'm normally a size 12 and that's what i ordered - it fit perfectly. I have wide feet so going down to 11 wasn't an option.
I would recommend this product.

I've had a pair of Sorrels before, and it lasted a long time. It finally wore out, and I had other brands since. They didn't last. I now have a new pair similar to my previous Sorrel. It's great. Same quality as 30 years ago. Shoe size is very close so half sizes be careful about going down. If you are a true half size, go up. I really like that I got my new pair of Sorrels.
I would recommend this product.

I usually wear a 9.5 or 10, ordered a 9, fits great. These boots look fantastic. They're huge like other Sorels, but they don't scream "snow boots" from blocks away. I use mine while cycling in Toronto in the winter. They're big, but they fit fine on my platform pedals. Clips/straps probably wouldn't work very well, but if that's your thing you can probably get it to go.
I would recommend this product.

I purchased these boots for a photography trip to Northern Finland, in search of the Northern Lights.
I wore them during sled trips, walking around the village, and mostly when out on shoots. Such shoots involved 3+ hours standing relatively still, feet in snow and with an air temperature of -22c. With 3 pairs of socks, my feet were comfortable and dry, whilst we watched our cameras and tripods slowly freeze! Amazing boots...truly.

Before my brother and I look to buy Sorels we did not know what it was... We had our first Elk hunting trip to the mountains of Colorado a week ago. Sorels was in our list of required gear and our friend a 69 yrs old hunter told us we must purchase a pair. Thats how we got started. Through research we were recomended the Caraboo model and we found it at a store. When we tried them I looked like goofy, I am a 12 and the boots were like 15 on me. I called Sorel and they recomended me 1964 Premium T boot, because the smaller profile and still had the qualities of the Caraboo for cold weather. I ordered a size smaller. I ordered them online, got a discount on the shipping for the 2 pairs and they fit great. Still did not know if I was going to use them. The first day of our hunt was clear and no snow. at about 10 am the snow started falling and it went from 60 degrees to 20 degrees by 2pm. the next morning was 4 degrees. My feet were confortable and warm. We were really happy about bying our Sorels!!! By the 3rd day I had no luck on the hunt and so I told the guide that I was willing to do anything. The next day he took me on a treck of climbing 1200 yards on an almost vertical mountain wich was very difficult due to the terrain and altitud. I had a great experiency acconplishing that at about 8K feet of elevation. Saw great animals and country, but no the right hunting game... The way down was very treacherous, dark and very cold. I thought my boots will be in pieces due to the sharp rocks. the next day on the morning I inspected my boots and they held up very well, you can vearly see any scratches... Great boots, very rugged and kept the California boys very warm.
I would recommend this product.

These boots are everything you think they would be. The upper leather is legit. Spent last weekend (Feb 4,5) up in some Idaho ski towns. The temperatures dipped down below zero at night easily and my feet were fine. I don't even lace them all the way up, but they stay to my feet fine. I am solid 12 and went with a 12 and have room some thick wool socks. Although I haven't gone hunting or serious walking in them I did jam out pretty hard in them and they broke in beautifully. Seriously get these boots.

I bought a pair a few months ago after I was disappointed by the North Face rubber bottom boots running Way too small. These boots are incrediable!! When I first put them on I was a little worried about the leather upper being too stiff against my shins (which gives the 'ski boot' sensation of being able to lean forward) however the supple leather quickly began to break in. For my money, these boots are just right. Rugged and handsome.

This product is the best option for replacing the old original Sorel Pak Boots (mine are ~30 years old) , and they are a good option. BUT...they are not quite as good as the originals - pretty close though.
They are not as heavy as the originals. On my originals, the sole is thicker and stiffer, even after 30 years. These new ones have a thinner sole that when you press on it with your thumb you can feel the pressure point inside on your foot. I wish the sole were thicker and tougher, like the originals. The rest of the boot, including the leather upper part, seems a little thinner and lighter as well.
That said, these are the closest thing I could find to the originals - and even these weren't available a year or so ago when I tried to replace my old Sorel Pak boots. These new ones are reasonably ok, but seem not as rugged for being out in the woods in.
Bought mine in a 10, really needed a 10 1/2, but half size was not available. They are slightly too small, but better than the pair of a competitor's Pak boots I got size 11 a year ago that are waaay to big and also way too overly heavy and thick to use in my snowshoe bindings or otherwise hike in.
Judging by the number of people who write reviews that RAVE about our old Sorel Pak boots, its hard to see why Sorell doesn't duplicate the more rugged original version. It was the absolute best boot ever. These are an acceptable replacement, but do not measure up to the originals.
Plus, when these came (I ordered online), I got a bunch of literature on fashion footwear by Sorel...not sure who they think is their customer base is????
These boots are good. I'd buy them again. But I'd buy another pair of the original version in a heartbeat - it wasn't good, it was GREAT!!

these are wonderful looking boots, but i didn't get chance to try them out because they are enormous! i ordered my normal size and estimate they were at least a whole size too big.
irritatingly, the canvas boots in the 1964 range are also large - though probably by a half, not a whole size. weird that identically-styled boots would differ from each other in size...
ended up sending them back, unfortunately.

I love the boot. I typically wear a 10.5 shoe. I bought a 10 in Sorel. It's a little big, but I'd say perfect for a winter boot. The tread is not great. It's squiggly lines instead of nubs and I've slipped a few times on plowed roads and icier spots. I know some older boots have good tread. Not sure why they would have changed it. They're super warm, lightweight, comfortable, and keep me dry.

We haven't had any snow in the Northeast yet so I haven't had a chance to really test them out, but so far I love these boots. They seem very well-made and durable. They're stylish (in a rugged kind of way) and comfortable. They're exactly what I was looking for.
