I wanted to love these boots... but they arrived with the right boot missing two eyelets. Doesn't seem like they were ever installed correctly to begin with. Oh well.. returned these immediatly after arrival.

VERY POOR QUALITY

I'VE WORN THESE BOOTS A TOTAL OF FIVE TIMES... THE RUBBER MIDSECTION OF THESE BOOTS HAS CRACKED IN SEVERAL PLACES (BOTH BOOTS). I HAVE GONE THROUGH 2 LARGE TUBES OF SHOE GOO TO TRY TO KEEP THESE BOOTS TOGETHER ... I AGREE 100 % WITH OTHER REVIEWS ... THESE ARE GREAT LOOKING BOOTS IF YOU PLAN TO WEAR THEM ONCE AND THEN THROW THEM AWAY.. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THESE.

DRY ROT

I've had my Conquest boots for about 15yrs. they've broken in so comfortably! This year, pulled them out of the closet for the first time, strapped them up, and went out. When I got home, I noticed the lower rubber area on one boot had cracked. When I pulled them off, the whole sole almost came off. I guess good things can't last forever! Wish they could be resoled!

Poor quality

The very first time I laced up these boots one of the hook eyelets broke. The second time I laced them up another hook eyelet broke. The boots were literally brand new! Clearly bad quality, I don't recommend. I just filed a warranty claim and it will take 2-4 weeks to have them repaired (once they give me the ok to ship them back). So basically winter will be over when they are returned to me.

Don’t store in the attic

I bought these several years ago and only wore them a handful of times. I just pulled them out to go to the mountains and after wearing them for 30 minutes they disintegrated. Even though they still looked like new the upper completely disconnected from the bottom..

Buckles come off

The very first day i got my boots i pulled laces toght and one of the lace holders pulled right off and now im questioning if i made a misstake buying them

Broke immediately

The first time I put my foot into the shoe and tightened the laces the top rivet popped clean off. The boots fit just fine, but I don’t trust the quality of these boots, and seeing as how Sorel has moved their factories overseas I don’t recommend anyone else should either.

Run slightly smaller.

Great boots. The size seems to be slightly small. I have always been a 9.5. but they are very warm.

Same problem as last time

This is the second pair I’ve purchased. I used the first pair sparingly as I now only go to Canada a few times a year. The boots were always stored in room temperature and on shelf, not crammed in. The rubber cracked making them unusable and they had gone out of warranty. I contacted Sorel and they said this issue has since been addressed with a new sole compound. 2 years ago I bought a replacement pair. I have literally worn these boots 10 times total as COVID has kept me from going anyplace cold. I went to BC over the holidays and pulled out my boots and after a quick walk the same thing happened again… these are expensive boots that otherwise look brand new but are now garbage… this legendary brand has completely lost the thread by letting a product this bad out the door!

Sorryel

Suffered the same issues as many other customers. The material between the leather uppers and the sole has disintegrated. I say "material" because it's so thin I'm not sure if its rubber or vinyl. In addition, the leather upper is not sewn to the "material' below it, its cemented, and the lip it's cemented to is so narrow it is the weakest place on the boot. Bought these boots from a reputable retailer. They need to know about this so they can drop this pathetic ChiCom junk from inventory.
