Customer Reviews SOREL 1964 Pac Nylon

Good quality. Lighter weight than the Caribou with good insulation. The foot is styled a little more like a rain boot, it less aggressive tread, and not much of a heel to speak of, in comparison to the Caribou. I would choose this over the Caribou, if I wanted to be lighter on my feet. The 1964 Pac boot fit a bit tighter over the top of my wide foot than the Caribou did.

The sizing was not right. I am a size 8 (have been for more than 40 years) I ordered a size 8.5 to make room for thick socks and ease of getting the boots on and off. It wasn't even close. I could barely get the 8.5 size on with normal socks. Has to return and have not reordered because I am wondering what size I need.

Nice boot to slip on during rain or snow; all year long.

Highly recommend. They worked great for the 2022 blizzard that just hit New England!

This is a winter boot that has a great classic look, but is a little low on functionality and warmth, when compared to serious winter gear. It's basically a rubber duck boot with a nylon upper sewn into it, and a waterproof barrier on the back side of the nylon. Then a (removable) felt liner is stuffed in to give it insulation for warmth. This is old school simplicity, and it works reasonably well. The boots are also fairly comfortable, and look very cool. Though, if you're looking for a serious boot that really performs, this might come up a bit shy. The insulation is adequate, but not super warm. I'd consider it equal in warmth to 400G insulated boots from other manufacturers. Though, over time the felt liner compresses. The fit gets more sloppy, and the warmth goes south a little as well. The liners are replaceable, but the price isn't insignificant. The nylon is good to keep the weight down, but doesn't provide the ankle support of leather, which is stiffer. It looks cool though, and makes the upper pliable. They're easy to put on and take off. The sole is considerably thinner than I expected it to be. It makes for a comfortable boot with a lot of give to it. But you do loose heat through the bottoms of your feet when walking on cold surfaces. I haven't had them long, so I can't comment on longevity. The construction is ok, though a little less robust than I thought they would be. These are good for shoveling snow in the driveway, or going out to the bar in bad weather. But for serious conditions (working outside, or walking far away from home), i'd look elsewhere. Either step up to a more robust Sorel, or a boot with new tech. Modern insulation and waterproof membranes have allowed manufacturers to make boots that are warmer than this with considerably less bulk, and without the sloppy fit. Different boots for different purposes. I'd consider this a fashion boot that's pretty high on utility. But it doesn't quite have the construction or design for me to trust them for serious winter conditions. The flip side, this is a great looking boot that has enough utility for small outdoor tasks, but won't completely overheat your feet indoors. I think that's more of the aim of the design, and for that, it does pretty well.

They never even sent me the shoes. Just ignored me

Most uncomfortable, and cold boot I could imagine just awfuk

Lightweight, warm and comfortable boots. Am replacing Caribou style - but will always stay with sorrel.

Did great in 14 inch snow, no problem driving a 18 wheeler wearing them.

There is nothing bad to say about these boots, they are excellent!
