Fantastic boots.  They are a bit heavy, although lighter than the original Sorel Pack boots from many years ago.  The black on black looks great with the white contrast, and the boots are comfortable and warm.  I ordered down a half size and they fit perfectly.  Note, the boot has a liner that covers and pads the foot bed, the Tivoli and other Sorels do not, so these are extra warm and toasty.  Definitely great for cold winter weather, and designed to function well in deep snow and icy conditions. Great purchase and will last a lifetime.
