Sorel Men's Ambler Fires Chukka WP

The men’s Sorel Ambler Fireside Chukka Waterproof Boots feature familiar elements: the leather upper and the large metal lace loops are borrowed from the legendary Caribou boots, as is the shape of the lower section. On the Ambler Fireside, however, the lower section is made from the same leather as the upper, rather than rubber.

This boot is a warm option when you’re after ankle-height winter footwear. The leather has been treated on the inside to make it waterproof, so wetter conditions won’t be a problem. The sole naturally works in sub-zero weather too: some soles harden and turn slippery in the cold.

The model is spacious, for ample warmth, and these shoes are best for use where you get low to moderate amounts of steps per day. For active endeavors, you’ll want to find winter shoes with a snugger fit and more classic lacing.

• Nubuck leather upper treated waterproof on the inside
