Here in the South it isn’t supposed to be this cold. And when I say it is cold…it is COLD! It has been in the low teens for several nights in a row now, never getting above freezing during the day. Yesterday we got a few snow flurries but not enough to lay. When you walk outside that COLD arctic air hits you in the face and chills ya to the bone. When I have to go out for something and then come back in my glasses even fog over. I am hating having to take the dogs out to go potty! It is enough to make you want one of these to put on the porch:
Isn’t that cute! We have a fire pit where we have bon fires and such but ohhh, an outdoor fireplace for the porch would be so nice! What is your weather like? It seems like the winters here over the last couple of years have just gotten crazy!

It seems that some parts of the country are already getting pounded with snow and cold weather. Ski season is in full swing and winter play has begun. If there is one thing that I hate about winter fun it is that my feet FREEZE. I can never put on enough socks or warm enough boots. This year, I am armed and ready! My feet will be all warm and cozy no matter how cold it gets. How do you like that Mr. Winter?!
What am I armed with? Ohhh, you are going to be drooling so get ready…
Sorel Boots, specifically the Sorel Caribou.
The original and best. Since 1972, the Sorel Caribou earned its reputation for warmth, durability and comfort the hard way: by protecting the feet of millions of Sorel customers through deep snow, harsh storms and the biting cold of long winters.
Rated to -40° below zero, the Caribou is the timeless choice for work and play in cold weather. The nubuck leather upper and handcrafted vulcanized rubber shell are seam-sealed for complete waterproofness and lined with a removable 9mm ThermoPlusTM felt InnerBoot that traps heat next to your foot, where it belongs. Underfoot, a thick rubber midsole insulates the boot from cold ground, while the Sorel AeroTracTM non-loading outsole provides sure footing.
FEATURES:
* Seam-sealed waterproof construction with waterproof nubuck leather upper
* Removable 9mm ThermoPlus felt InnerBoot
* Sherpa PileTM snow cuff
* 2.5mm bonded felt frost plug
* Handcrafted waterproof vulcanized rubber shell with Sorel AeroTrac non-loading outsole
* Imported
Now these are some boots! I can romp, tromp and play in any weather and not have to worry about my feet being cold. Thank you Sorel! They use high quality materials and the craftsmanship is superb. If you remove the lining they are a little hard to get back in…just because everything fits together so well to provide your feet with the perfect fit.
What they say:
At Sorel, we make footwear that is honest, uncomplicated, and unpretentious. We believe that form follows function, and that the result is often quite beautiful. Since 1962, we’ve put craftsmanship first in the pursuit of making products that last. We believe that when your feet are taken care of, you can be more spontaneous, and that your boots should last as long as the experiences you have in them. We believe in being effortlessly outdoors no matter what the elements.
I love that! And I love their boots. You will have to check out their complete line of styles for women, men and children some rated to -100 degrees below zero for all of your winter footwear needs. Whether you just want to get out and play or live in the harshest of conditions Sorel has you covered!
Sorel provided me with a complimentary pair of boots to facilitate this review. All opinions are those of my own and are in no way influenced by any outside source.
