Sorel Men’s Caribou™ Wool Boot

This version of the Caribou boot has the same waterproof construction, full-grain leather upper and iconic silhouette you know and love, but comes with a wool inner boot (instead of felt) to keep feet warm, dry and cozy during activities in winter weather.

I like the color and style of the boot. My last pair of Caribous lasted 20 years OBVIOUSLY THE CRAFTSMANSHIP IS GONE.
ANYWAY I AM GOING TO RETURN THEM.
I do not recommend this product.

2nd pair of Sorels, first pair bought about 25 years ago. Son took my first pair so landed new pair of Caribous. Great boot, except for one of the wool liners is extremly tight and take about 10 minutes to get my foot into. I'm hoping this will stretch with time, however it's been two weeks and still real tight.
I would recommend this product.

Was looking for some winter boots and went to some local stores that sold Sorel, but they did not have much of a selection. I went on the Sorel website to not only find exactly what I needed, but at a much lower price. Would definitely buy direct again.
I would recommend this product.

I live in the Lake Tahoe area and recently purchased some Caribou boots to replace my old pair that were finally too worn to wear after 19 years. I wear them for hiking, camping, snow shoeing, snowmobiling, snow blowing and apres ski. They will keep your feet warm and most important - DRY. Love em. I usually wear a size 11, but have had 12 in the past two boots and the fit great and comfy.
I would recommend this product.

Runs a little small so might think about ordering a 1/2 size larger. Best boots on the market, hands down.

I purchased these about one month ago to replace my Sorel 1964 Pac T's. While I liked my Pac T's, the liners were just not warm enough and became wet very quick. After trying on my friend's Caribou Wool boots, I decided that these boots would keep my feet as warm and dry as I wanted them to be. After receiving them my initial impression was favorable. The leather seemed stiff and the liners were way warmer than the liners from my old PAC T 1964's. After one month, however, these boots failed to hold up. I was outdoors gathering firewood to bring inside. As I made my way back to the house, a log dropped from my arms and a part of the log punctured a one inch hole in the leather. Suffice it to say I was fairly unhappy. In my opinion this shouldn't be the case for a pair a boots like this. So basically I can't wear these boots now cause of the gaping hole in them. I have since started to wear my old 1964 PAC T's again as I have no other boots. I have come to realize that the leather on my PAC T's is of better quality than that of the leather on the Caribou Wool boots. In the future I don't think I'll be buying another pair of Sorel's again. Its a shame.
I do not recommend this product.

Being in 5' deep snow in Colorado for extended periods of time can really cause frost bite without the right boots. I bought these boots for snowmobiling and let me tell you I'm glad I did. I spent hours digging out my snowmobile and my friends snowmobiles out of the snow, and my feet were never cold. I'm a believer in these boots so stop your search now and get to ordering.
I would recommend this product.

Wisconsin winters can be somewhat tame... Wisconsin winters can be outrageous. I don't suspect I'll be getting a new pair of winter boots for 20+ years. Very happy.

Been wearing the same winter boots for almost ten years, decided to upgrade to sorel as they had wore out. Best decesion i've made. Boots are very warm and well built. Slightly tight at first but once i wore them in, they fit great. Would recommend to anyone.

This is a great boot. The wool liner has my feet sweating when I'm indoors and keeps my feet feeling warm and cozy out in the recent negative degree weather. The sole is superior to the other soles of the more classic Sorel. The only issue is that they're a bit difficult to get the foot in because the liner is sewn up so high. Nonetheless, they're great.
I would recommend this product.

As hoped, these boots serve as the perfect solution for my weekly trips to Tahoe during the winter. They slip on and off easily, keep me warm and dry trudging around temperatures from 0-50˚, and are even flexible enough to drive stick in. After a long day of skiing, having these boots waiting for me in the car is something I look forward to.
I would recommend this product.

My last pair of Caribous finally wore out after 20 years of service. I heard Sorel had changed hands and that the boots were not the same anymore. I was pleasantly surprised to find that quality and fit were still there!
I would recommend this product.

Stylish well made and very warm - This boot is comfortable and great. Wish they have 1/2 sizes available needed a little room the insert makes the size of the boot a little small.

My husband was thrilled when he opened the box and saw his new boots. "perfect for hunting!" was the response. "these will be so much warmer than my current boots". Needless to say, i think he likes them. I was also very impressed with the quality and make in these boots. I'm sure he will wear them for years to come.
I would recommend this product.
