My father has owned his pair of Sorel Caribous since 1992. While known for their clunky-chore-boot charm, the Caribous have been keeping our toes ultra- toasty and feet dry in an 80 year spree with no end in sight.
The Sorel Caribou boots have been kicking winter’s butt since the 1960s. What we didn’t like: weight, doesn’t feel as snug due to amount of insulation What we liked: long-term durability, high quality construction, insulation suited for extreme cold, grip, range of sizes available Insulation: Removable 9 mm washable felt inner boot with snow cuff The Best Men’s Winter Boot: Sorel Caribou
