Review on Men'S Waterproof Backpacking Boots For The Outdoors by Ross Sugden

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Jeff Bezos hits a home run ---again!

I have a pair of high-end Sorel Caribou boots (ehrrr- -"had"?- - I can't find them - -maybe my dog ate them). They're an OK boot- - but frankly didn't hold true to their rated "warmth" comfort range - -at least for me. Not being able to find them was perhaps fortuitous. With the upcoming Wisconsin winter, I looked for a replacement boot. And "voila," Ebay, holding true to Jeff Bezo's credo of value, quality and speedy delivery comes through with flying colors with this Northside pack boot. I must say for the money - -by far the best value in this type of men's boot anywhere (at least that I've seen). Beautifully made, quality components, fits me perfectly. I can't say how "warm" they'll be, but if what I have seen thus far holds true, they will be up to the task of handling a very cold winter season (I use them for ice fishing, trekking wilderness areas, and clearing snow). They are not real "light weight," but in the end if they hold up as I expect them to, I will be more than satisfied.

Pros
  • No
Cons
  • The soles of the boots may slip on wet or slick surfaces
