By Stephen RegenoldDubbed an arctic slipon, the replica cariter Pasha C watches Fairbanks Snow Sneakers are a strange lowtop option for winter use. Made to protect from the snow and cold, the shoes have waterproof leather uppers and felted wool lining. The tough outsole tread is said to have been inspired by snowmobile tracks.The shoes slip on and off easily, no lacing required. They are warm for average winter tasks like running errands or shoveling the walk. The company notes that design cues were taken from the winter chukkas of the Alaskan Inuit.But a replacement to winter boots these are not.
I would not recommend the Sorel shoes for anything beyond the most basic activities in the outdoors. In my test, loose snow came replica cariter Pasha C Chronograph watches right in when walking on a trail. The shoes opening at the ankle is large and loose. And at only four inches high, a lot of snow can spill inside. On ice and packed snow, the snowmobile tread outsole was fine for traction. But being rubber, the tread was far from slipproof.Overall, the Snow Sneakers fit was loose and uncomfortable.
Around my ankles, the big opening felt strange and too large for my foot. At the same time, they were too short in my regular shoe size. My toes replica cariter Pasha de Cartier watches banged against the front of the shoe as I walked a trail.At $90, the Sorel Fairbanks Snow Sneakers are not worth the price. They are warmI wear them around the house on winter days as slippersbut the company(sorel) has some work to do on this model before Ill take to wearing an arctic slipon outside.Stephen Regenold writes about outdoors gear at .
