If you like the comfort and style of the Sorel Moresby and Crestwynd snow boots but the notion of a zipper jam gives you a chill, the lace-up Cumberland delivers the same design features without the zip. Unlike the full leather classic Sorel Caribou boot, the Cumberland snow boot has a lighter weight, water-resistant nylon upper that substantially reduces the weight per boot. Behind this tough polyurethane-backed material is a warm and fast-drying Thinsulate insulation that's rated to keep your feet warm all the way down to -25F (-32C). The drawbacks? None if you're outside, but be prepared to clean up after yourself if your mountain chalet mud room has white linoleum or light hardwood floors. The durable rubber black soles will leave marks on some floor surfaces.
Amazon.com Product Description:
The Cumberland boot from Sorel will bring you warm, protective comfort this winter. The rubber outsole has a multi-patterned tread for enhanced traction, and it extends far upward to keep water and slush out. A durable, rip-stop nylon shaft covers thick interior padding and a soft fabric lining.
Comment: This is an excellent boot. Very comfortable and keeps my feet warm and dry! Perfect for working outside in the cold weather.

Comment: I purchased these boots a few weeks ago. Very nice looking and comfortable. However, I work with EMS in an area of deep snow and ice, I would not recommend them for snow deeper than a few inches, even with gaters and for ice, no way. The boots were somewhat warm at 30 degrees, as temp dropped, feet felt cold. For a "run around" boot, I love them, just be sure to stay off the ice.

Comment: I bought her size 11 black - and she's in college in Massachussetts at the moment. They arrived quickly and she was SO happy with them. The fit is excellent and they are WARM!!! She had said she wanted something waterproof on her visit home for Thanksgiving. When I saw these on Amazon, I thought to myself "HOw perfect!". In fact when the boots arrived, she put them on right away and wore them the whole rest of the day. She even made a joke: My daughter used to go to highschool in Hawaii where she was always wearing sandal-thongs (usually Nikes) all winterlong. Today, when she phoned me from her dorm, she said these boots were as warm and comfortable to walk in that it was as if she were back in Hawaii: "Hey Mom, these are my Massachussett-thongs!!" And yes, I suppose, in places where it is freezing in the winter, these boots are what sandal-thongs would look like and feel like!! :) LOL Strongly recommended!

Comment: I got these for my daughter and they are even better than I thought they would be. Well constructed, waterproof, and warm. Terrific for the snowy days we're expecting this year!
