Customer Rating: Summary: The Perfect Winter Boot Comment: Sizing: Feels half size too small
Pros:Comfortable, Durable, Great Traction, Non-slip sole, Stable, Warm, Water Resistant
Best Uses:Backcountry, Cold weather, Day hikes, Everyday, Stadium, Wet Weather
This is a great cold weather boot. Wear them for winter hiking, camping, or to a cold football game. There is a shorter, lighter, but not quite as warm version, the Sorel Timberwolf. Of course you should apply waterproofing to any boot such as Niwax. Finally, warm boots won't help if you do not layer with good long underwear and hat or balaclava. Customer Rating: Summary: Bought these boots for my boyfriend Comment: I purchased these boots as a Christmas present for my boyfriend. He actually went online and picked them out. He loves them and says they are very warm. The only thing he doesn't like about them is the top part where the drawstring is. He says it rubs on the front of his leg and is annoying, but other than that, he has worn them already so often because of the smount of snow we have gotten so far.
Customer Rating: Summary: Sorel Winter Boot Comment: The looks and comfort of this boot have not disappointed and I suspect they will give me good service - However the manufacturers state the boot will keep your feet warm to -40deg. I have so far worn them in temperatures around +3deg and my feet were not particularly warm when standing in one place for any length of time. I fear that in temperatures much below this my feet will feel decidedly cold in these boots. I live in the UK where winters are not particularly harsh and hoped if I bought a boot I thought was designed for much harsher climates I could not go wrong, I have my doubts. I use my boots mostly to go fishing in so am stationary for long periods. If you are on the move quite a lot then that may make a considerable difference.
So in summary:-
Strong rugged *****
Waterproof *****
Comfort walking *****
Comfort warmth (The main reason I bought the boot) ** Customer Rating: Summary: Sorel - The name speaks for itself Comment: Great Boot, we didn't expect any less. My husband loves these so much he can't wait to shovel, now that is a good boot!
