Tough, Warm, Comfortable
This is vey warm, tough, and confortable snow boot that I love so much and would recommend to my friends. I love walking and playing ourdoor with my daughters whenever we have snow. This has a separate gator which can keep snow from getting into the boots and warm enough to use in cold weather for a long time.

Best boots
Bought these boots for road jobs for very cold and wet conditions. They worked so good that I am purchasing another set for my son-in-law for the same reason. When the other officers saw them they are ordering the same boots. The K-9 officer is purchasing a set for duty use.

Men's Conquest Snow Boot
I tried wearing this boot for a night, at home. This was a very uncomfortable boot. The size was correct, just uncomfortable. The front adjustment poked into my shin and they did not have any cushion or give to them. I have returned them for a refund.

very good boot for chicago winters
very good boot bought boot in 2010 so i had them just for one winter. i like the installation, draw string at top of boot to keep snow out, these boot are made as one piece so they are water proof just put your foot in lace up and go, nothing else to move like velcro. be advise they will make you seem taller. talk to customer service they suggested getting a half size bigger, i did and they fit perfeclyt from 10.5 to 11 and i'm 6 feet tall and 250 pounds. all in all a very good boot, however they take some getting used to putting boot on and they taking them off.thank you and good shopping.

Great Boots
Great pair of boots. I did a lot of on-line research before I purchased these Sorel Boots. They are very warm and comfortable in the most extreme weather. From riding ATVs and snowmobiles to snow removal. I would highly recommend these boots. I owned Columbia Boots before, but I don't think the two products are even close in terms of warmth and construction.

Great snow boots!
Finally got to use these boots last weekend in Lake Tahoe during a big snow storm. The boots stood up to the test. I played in knee deep snow all day with my kids. We built an igloo using the boots to kick chunks of snow loose. These boots were great. They kept my feet warm and dry. The only problem i had was that my socks keep sliding down, but that may be a sock problem. or I didn't tighten the laces enough. I'm a size 9 and ordered a 9.5, which fit perfectly.

Men's Sorel Conquest Snow Boots
I ordered these snow boots when the ones I had fell apart during the worst snow storm in Oklahoma history. I did not get to try them out as our winter is pretty much over for the year but when I received them, I was very impressed with the quality of these boots. These made my old ones look cheap! I read a lot of the comments from other reviewers and can agree with them that these are very well made and well worth the money. I will look forward to them next year when we see if we beat our all time 2010 record in cold and snow fall. Great boots!!!

Great boots
The boots are very warm and very comfortable. The soles on the shoe seem like they are tire rubber and provide great traction. One thing i noticed is that they seem a little wide for a person with narrow feet, but otherwise great boots and would recommend to others.

Your feet will feel like an impenetrable fortress
The deepest snow I was able to test these in was 8".
Important: You may want to order a half-size to size up. I'm a 13 and ordered 14 and have minor wiggle room. Thick socks can remedy that problem.
I am able to stand still in snow and not feel any water, cold or any other sensory input that would indicate I'm in snow at all (as far as feet go). I never used cold weather socks with these boots. These boots give you a bit of an invincible feeling. The worst conditions I wore these in was while being a good samaritan and helping push people's stuck cars. Not once did I have a concern for my feet. This was in 8" of snow and high winds in 19F degrees.
This brings me to the only "con" I can find about these boots. They're a bit clunky. This should probably be expected, given the height of the boot. Ankle movement forward and backwards is a bit of a task. This hindered my driving a bit. I just had to keep my heel off the floor to get good use of gas/brake pedals. Side-to-side isn't as bad, but you certainly won't roll your ankle in these. The "bending" action at the ball of the foot as you walk is a bit stiff, but I may just need to wear them in a bit more.
All in all, this is an awesome boot for plowing through snow without a thought. I would compare them to snowboard boots, except they are more flexible, extremely weather resistant and good looking.

Conquest Snow Boot
Altrec has been great to del with so far. They shipped the product quickly and it was well packaged. The boot was a little small so I went through the return process which so far has been fairly easy.
I will update after my return is cimpletely processed.

Great Boots
My husband is outside for most of the winter, his LLBean boots were not holding up. He tried these boots and he doesn't sweat and they are really comfy. They also keep cold snow and water out. A definite must have.
February 21, 2011
Good product though it falls short of the review stating to -40 degrees. Feet were cool and damp after 5 hours delivering mail and never would have made it if the temp was more than 10 below.

Great Boots
Got these boots to replace my 20 yr old Sorels.
I got them in time for the Blizzard of 2011 in Illinois. These boots never took in snow and kept my feet warm for the 7 1/2 hours I spent clearing snow. Even after the snow, we received below zero temps and I was able to say my feet stayed warm.
The best part of the boots is you will only need a single pair of day to day socks.

great boots
as a security guard, i wore this in the freezing snow and stay warm for hours. my black uniform boots could never achieved this. excellent product.
put in some toes warmers and you're all set.

Runs big but works great
NYC snow! I ordered 1/2 size bigger for heavier socks but shouldn't have. That said, I've worn them to work (indoors) and they felt great-not too hot. Outside they are bullet proof. I've even stepped through slush puddles and they've worked fine- not wet and stayed warm. VERY comfortable to wear all day. Oddly, there is no loop strap to help pull the boots on- only a small "pull tab". For this manufacturer, there should be a loop strap- big oversight! I've only worn them for a week but they perform as expected. Note: At first the boots rubbed on my shin but that resolved itself after the first day of use.
February 3, 2011
Disappointed.....The boot was not up to my expectations, my feet got cold and my socks wet. I am trying the Sorel Caribou, hopefully these will be good for ice fishing.

Excelent Boot
Love this boot, it is super warm and very true to size. The fact that it comes in half sizes is great. I wear a 7.5 and they fit true to size for me. I would fully recommend this boot for winter wear.
January 27, 2011
Good boot and seems to be completely waterproof. Very stiff at first, but comfortable after breaking the boot in.
January 10, 2011
Second pair of Sorels, work outdoors in cold, very warm. Liners are rather expensive.
January 4, 2011
Great Boots
These are the best snow boots I've ever purchased. The fit is very good and they keep my feet warm and dry.
January 3, 2011
Very Good!
The only problem is the fit is not true to size as was indicated. I ordered a 10.5, which is my dress shoe size, but should have gone up a half size. The shoe was as advertised in consideration to warmth, very warm and the tread was very helpful to walking in the snow.
December 29, 2010
Nice boots for bad weather. They don't slip on and off easily when laced up, but that keeps them on your feet when you're outside. Warm, durable and not too clunky. I like them.

Conquest Comfort Conquers Cold
I work outdoors in the North East and although many companies offer a snowboot few offered a snowboot that would look like a uniform boot and be comfortable enough to actually stand in all day. The Conquest covers it all, by keeping you dry, Warm and also comfortable. I am so impressed with these boots I am using the 20% off from writting this review to order a back up set.
December 26, 2010
Sorel Conquest is still the best!
I owned a pair of classic black Sorel boots for 15 years and used them in the deepest of snow in climates reaching 60 below (Winter Harbor, ME). Those boots lasted forever and are still working today minus the liner which just won't survive cleaning any longer.
The Conquest boots are better designed for long trips, a bit lighter and tighter fitting. The snow gaiter on the top is fantastic for keeping the snow out.
The only downside is the time to lace them up. These are not quick and ready boots. The laces don't pull tight without a bit of work. Once it is all set though, you are good to go!
I can only hope these last as well as my last pair. Only other comment would be the width. I have a fairly wide foot. These fit me despite being M rated for width. They probably would be a bit tight with thick socks but they are warm enough you don't really need the socks unless you are doing some hardcore winter hiking. Enjoy!

One of the most comfortable pair of boots that I have ever owned. Feet stay warm and dry in all sorts of New England winter conditions.
December 7, 2010
Awesome Fit, Protection and Value
I worked with a guide over 32 years ago that highly recommended Sorel boots. Now that I have a pair, it's evident why he stood behind them. We just got our first big snow in the East so I'm breaking them in and they are awesome in every way! It's so great to finally have a warm, waterproof pair of boots, correct to size and priced right at Altrec.
December 6, 2010
Comfort and Durability
Great boots and a fair price. Fit true to size! The bottoms of the boot feel like running shoes, and the uppers are also light and waterproof.
November 11, 2010
Excellent Boots
These are my first boots from Sorel and I love them. They are very warm and totally waterproof. They are true to size (bought a size 10 and it fits perfectly). Weight is average for this style of boot. The only small negative is that they are not very flexible (hard to crouch down), but I expect that this will change once I wear them in. I would definitely recommend these boots to friends.
November 3, 2010
getting a 2nd pair
I got these boots for my hubby for work and he immediately wants me to order a 2nd back up pair. Which I will be doing asap. Sorels are by far the best and I know he will be warm in the cold weather he had to face daily at work. Thank you Altrec for the fast delivery. We are your new loyal customers now.
October 30, 2010
Very good purchase
As postal worker I need for work Waterproof Very Warm Shoes for snowing weather .This one is ideal for walking on snow.Very comfortable too.
October 28, 2010
Best Boots I've ever had
As soon as you put these boots on they conform to your foot and you can't tell they are on. I would recommend these boots to anyone.
May 23, 2010
LOVE THEM
I have been looking for a pair of Sorel boots for quite some time. I really wanted a pair to use for both recreation and work. When I found these I thought they might work. They are incredible. We recently had a spring snow storm with over a foot of wet, heavy snow. I was outside working for 7 hours and my feet stayed warm, dry and comfortable the entire time. I highly recommend them!
March 26, 2010
good boot, but run big
I'm sad, but I had to return them. They looked tough as heck, but I think they run a bit wide. I'm a woman with a large foot, so I often buy men's shoes, but in this case I think they didn't fit because they were too wide for me. Total bummer.
March 12, 2010
Great Boot
I spent 3 nights 4 days climbing Mt Whitney in the middle of February and these boots kicked butt. I sweated through the boot and they never dried in 15 degree weather but my feet were warm the entire trip. Climbing out of a sleeping into frozen boots is no fun but surprisingly my feet warmed the boots and the toes were toasty. I put on a pair of Black Diamond crampons on and they worked great, show shoes no problem. Crossed streams and they never leaked. If cash is tight and $300.00 mountaineering boots are not an option then these will get the job done without disappointment.

Sorel Boot
Great comfort, Feet stay dry all day and I work in the snow all day. Couldn't ask for a better boot. Thanks!
February 22, 2010
The boots were nice, just cut a little small
The right boot fit fine, but the left boot was a little tight.

U.S. Army 101st Airborne Veteran is AMAZED!
Simply impressive. As a former Infantry Operations NCO with the U.S. Army 101st Airborne 187th Infantry, I am highly amazed with the features, fit and build quality of my Sorel boots. Nice work Canada! eh!
February 9, 2010
Fantastic boot! Extremely warm and comfortable
This is a great boot! I live in the high sierra (30+ feet of snow a year) These boots hold a crampon and snow shoes, and hold a good edge on steep terrain. Love these boots!

Terrific, warm boot that exceeds my hopes...
I am a 29 year police veteran in northern Indiana where lake-effect snow is the norm. I have purchased boots from every major police boot maker, but decided on a boot that looks like a police boot, but unlike the others, keeps my feet warm and dry. The Sorel Conquest in black is the warmest, best winter boot I have owned, and has exceeded my hopes.
October 10, 2009
these boots rock!
I bought these boots for my son, who was traveling across Poland in Feb. Although the weather is usually cold, snowy and dismal during that time of year, according to my son, his feet were never cold or wet the entire time. Aside from being waterproof, the boots were attractive. Just a note-- if you are packing these for travel, the boots are pretty heavy. But all in all, they are terrific, and I highly recommend them.

Great boots
These boots are great..Very warm,and look good too...Buy them!!!
February 13, 2009
Good boot, very comfortable.
Only bad point is that they are not very comfortable to sqaut down and bend your foot down, IE kneeling. I don't think they were designed for that so I can't say its a bad thing. As a Paramedic I have to kneel by patients frequently so they may not be the best choice for this application. I bet they would be great for any other application.
February 9, 2009
My husband and my son love them
My husband and son both have these boots, and both love them. They both told me that they are very warm, waterproof, fit well, and comfortable. We have very cold winters in Wisconsin, and my husband said these are the warmest boots that he has ever had.
January 9, 2009
Nice boots for the price
Just returned from a week of snow mobiling in WY.. Boots kept my feet dry and warm in 10 to 20 degree weather. Very nice boots for the price!

These boot didn't leak one time & my feet stayed warm & dry.
I put these boots though every water test I could come across. I walked though water 6" deep and deep snow. Not once did they leak. My feet stayed warm & dry. The only complaint I have is that I'm a little bull legged & the right & left part of the boot by the buckle bites into my ankle, however the boots are still new & with time and a little padding I'm hoping this will soften. These boots were so good, my wife bought a set. She takes a womens 7 1/2, so we got her a mens size (7), just a little wide for a woman, however they work great.

Quality Boot
This is a great boot. I bought them for my 13 year old with the thought that because they are such good quality, my 10 year old will inherit them at some point. Great boot, great service!
December 27, 2005
THEY LEAK!
Don't believe the hype. I bought these boots, goaded by the ads that said "Warm & Dry". Within six weeks, they were leakng at the toes. Normal wear - just walking the dog. Sorel has a good name but the original company went out of business. All I can say is that Columbia has vamped up the ads, but the boots just aren't the same. PLUS the company I bought them from, Europe Bound on King Street in Toronto, wouldn't refund them. The manager basically said "there's nothing I can do". And so now I'm C$250 poorer, and I have frostbite. What a disappointment.
January 17, 2005
The boots are ver warm
I purchased these boots because my husband works outdoors and was always complaining of wet feet. These are great. His feet are warm and dry. I would highly recommend these for any kind of outdoor activity!!
January 6, 2005
Excellent and Warm
These boots are extremely warm and comfortable, even for casual walking in cold Minneapolis winters. You don't even need to be highly active for these boots to keep the heat in. Not to mention, if you're feeling adventurous, the interior fleece lining keeps your feet comfy even with the thinnest of polypropolene socks.
November 25, 2004
great boot
These boots are great, very warm and not bulky. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a waterproof work boot.
