How is this shilled? Even if you don't like this brand, which is an opinion you are entitled to, can you find a lower price on these? I never know what people will like or not like, so I try to post what I think are great items, from great stores, for a great price.

The same magic as used in a wetsuit, swimsuit, or snow coat, perhaps?

Sorels have sucked since Columbia bought the brand during bankruptcy (but not the care and expertise) and started making them in China. They quickly fall apart, unlike the stuff formerly made in Canada that could last decades.

FYI, this is a shilled post.

Sorel made in Canada? Where median homes are pushing a million dollars despite tepid economic growth and a widespread money laundering issues propping up the house prices with illegal windfalls of cash from China and the Middle East while the labor shortages are questionably backfilled with a large-scale immigration program for India?

Sorry, blacked out for a second. Just saying these wouldn't be $40. It's true, do. Wink

This is a great find, thank you. I let my dad know, who needed some new boots, and he's excited to try these.

It's true that Sorel went from being outdoor gear to fashionwear after Columbia bought it and moved production from Canada to China. I had a pair of Sorel boots from after the takeover and they were great for a couple of years until the rubber crumbled and the sole came apart from the upper. From what I've read, many people have had these problems with newer Sorel boots. And yes, the old Sorels, made in Canada, could easily last for decades. Not these. As for being a shill post, I disagree. It is a good price for these fashionwear boots that won't have a long lifespan. I'm attaching my photos of the Sorel Conquest boots that I made a warranty claim for in 2018.

Wet suit and swim suit aren't waterproof (unless you mean a dry suit), and coats should have a flap to cover the zipper if they are significantly waterproof.

If these are actually waterproof I assume the zipper is an exception. Meaning they are waterproof for rain, not submersion. In my experience, that's the case for most shoes sold as "waterproof".

Wetsuits are not designed to stay dry on the inside...

Had the same problem with a hardly worn pair of Sorels - tops were beautiful still, and the soles were absolutely garbage that cracked and fell completely apart. I swore I'd never buy a pair again, but at $40 shipped I will give these a try, knowing they will only last a few years at best.
