Serious winter activities call for serious winter boots. The Sorel Intrepid Expedition Winter Boots are just that, serious winter boots. One look at these winter boots and you’ll see that they mean business. If you have ever been to Alaska, you’ll see how these boots were inspired by those worn by some of the most popular dog mushers in history. If that doesn’t say something about these boots, I don’t know what will.

Talk about a warm pair of shoes. The Sorel Intrepid Expedition Winter Boots are beyond warm. The have a number of factors in play to make sure your feet stay warm and comfortable. One such feature is the boot in boot design. Inside of the Sorel Intrepid Expedition Winter Boot you’ll find a pair of inner boots.

These inner boots aren’t just for warmth though. They are made from 13mm ThermoPlus and have rubber soles. This means the inner boots of the Sorel Intrepid Expedition Winter Boots can be worn on there on if need be. These are perfect for wearing around camp, to the outhouse, or to gather firewood. Combine all of the features of the inner boots with the outer boots and you have a super warm and super multi-functional boot.

    I really can’t say enough good things about the Sorel Intrepid Expedition Winter Boots. Having worked in Alaska racing sled dogs, I can vouch for these. The warmth these boots provide is unconpairable to any other pair of winter boots that I have warn.
