Product Insights & Style Tips
A modern take on the original Caribou, the Caribou Horizon GTX ankle boot is priced at 350 and built for winter city wandering. The upper blends full-grain leather with a Gore-Tex waterproof membrane, trimmed in plush fleece, in a light-brown and black palette with a gray fleece collar. Inside, 200 grams of insulation add warmth without bulk, while a genuine shearling collar lends luxe texture. The outsole sits on a rugged Vibram unit, ready for slick sidewalks and snowy streets.
On foot, the Horizon GTX sits at the ankle with a lace-up front for adjustability. It is built around Gore-Tex waterproof fabric, a true seal against wet weather, and a Vibram outsole to secure traction on ice and slush. The fit runs true to size, making room for cozy socks, and the silhouette pairs seamlessly with denim or wool minis for day-to-night city looks.
Caribou Horizon is the modern evolution of a Sorel icon, marrying heritage details with weatherproof performance. The line leans into luxe ruggedness with leather, shearling, Gore-Tex and a Vibram base, a look that has kept turning up in street and editorial settings.
