Reviews
Despite the fact that it is a brand from Canada, it is well known to Russian consumers. His shoes are bought both for active city life, and for winter fishing or hunting.
Reviews on everyday models, as well as for skiing and snowboarding, are mostly positive. They relate to comfort in wearing and fastening, since boots are not only easy to take off and put on, they also do not pass the frost. Shoes provide the necessary heat, while sitting comfortably on the foot thanks to the soft insulation inside. It can last several years, which is convenient for those who do not like to be updated every season.
Reviews of specialized models are mixed. As for heat regulation, everything suits buyers - the shoes cope with the preservation of heat and prevent the fishermen from freezing. However, the quality of the seams leaves much to be desired, since with active use the boots soon begin to leak moisture. Buyers note the slippery sole on the Caribou. Over time, some boots showed microcracks at the bend points.
