Product Review

Hike down an icy trail or use them with your snowshoes; either way, you'll be plenty warm in the Sorel Women's Caribou Boot. Rated to -40F, the Caribou Boot is built from a waterproof full-grain leather upper attached to a vulcanized rubber bottom. Metal shanks across the heel and ball of your foot give you sturdy footing across uneven terrain. The Caribou Boot is waterproof, and the 9mm ThermoPlus felt liner is removable, so you can dry them out between uses.

Cold-Weather Protection for Subzero Temperatures


Whether you're working or playing in cold winter weather, you'll appreciate the mix of heavy-duty materials that make the Caribou boot a long-standing customer favorite. The Caribou boot has a nubuck leather upper and handcrafted vulcanized rubber shell, both seam-sealed for reliable performance. The shell and upper are lined with a removable 9-millimeter ThermoPlus felt InnerBoot with four-layer construction that traps heat next to your foot, keeping your toes warm down to 40 degrees below zero.

Underfoot, a thick rubber midsole and a 2.5-millimeter bonded felt frost plug work together to insulate the boot from the cold ground, while the SOREL AeroTrac non-loading outsole provides reliable traction, even on icy, snowy surfaces.
Lightweight and Flexible for Comfort


Along with incredible cold-weather protection, the Caribou offers both style and comfort. Natural rubber compounds maintain flexibility and traction even in extremely cold conditions, while a molded EVA midsole provides lightweight cushioning and added insulation. A Sherpa pile snow cuff lends another layer of warmth and a stylish accent.

4.0 out of 5 stars Probably your best choice for a warm basic snow boot, October 10, 2007

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...Read more

This review is from: Sorel Women's Caribou Boot (Shoes)
ordered the Caribou-Elderberry [5m].....my true size is 6 1/2 [running shoe 7]...after reading reviews on a few sites. 80% of the women reviewing said they ordered 1/2 to 1 full size smaller was best. And though i haven't had the chance to wear these in snow YET, the 5m DID in fact fit me perfectly - with my SmartWool PhD Ski Medium socks on!! Was snug but had room for my toes to wiggle around - and i have a wide foot where my toes are. the boot is bulky so if you go true to size......they'd definitely look HUGE on you. i think the trick is.....if you have a "fuller" foot [not in length but girth/width] in whatever size you fit, consider just going to the next SMALLER size [Sorel Caribou don't come in 1/2 sizes]...so if you're 6 1/2 go down to a 6............this will still give you LOTS of wiggle room and probably allow you to wear super thick socks. otherwise, if you've got an average to slender foot, might want to try a full size smaller...................

This review is from: Sorel Women's Caribou Boot (Shoes)
We just ordered a pair for my wife because she likes my 10-yr.-old pair so much. The new ones look about the same but as soon as you put them on you realize that they are not the same. The details in the construction are not there. The materials are not as robust. Some reviewers already commented on the new boots' lack of durability. My 10-yr.-old pair were "hand made in Canada" and the new ones are made in China. I doubt the new pair will look as good as mine in 10 years.

I read on-line that Columbia Sports wear bought the brand name and closed the Canadian factory. The new ones cost just as much as the old Canadian ones but Sorel now advertise in Vogue!!! It is sad that Columbia closed up the original factory and move the business overseas.
