For those of you who prefer your weather cold and your ground snow-covered, Sorel makes the best winter boots in the business. The choice of those who live, work, and play in cold climes, Sorel boots keep feet toasty warm and dry no matter what the conditions.
Founded in Kitchener, Ontario in 1908, Sorel has been an innovator in the winter boot industry for one hundred years. In fact, Sorel was the first boot company to combine leather uppers with rubber bottoms and felt liners for warm, waterproof protection. Thanks to proprietary technologies, like an advanced 4-layer insulation system, Sorel is able to handle the most bitter cold. They use a special material to line the boots, along with ThermoPlus felt liners and a wicking layer, to reflect heat back onto the foot for extra warmth.
The Sorel Caribou boot is the most famous of the Sorel winter boots, but it’s certainly not the only one. Sorel makes everything from snow boots to mid hikers to casual waterproof clogs. They even make a great line of kids footwear - Sorel for Kids. If you live, work, or play in below freezing or subzero temperatures, you owe it to your feet to invest in a pair of Sorel winter boots.
