Neat CONTEST
Win your pick of FREE Sorel winter boots!
Here’s some good news stepping into the New Year: Sorel, the Canadian outerwear outfitters owned by Portland’s Columbia Sportswear, will award one lucky Neat Sheet reader a FREE pair of winter-worthy Sorel boots – your choice!
Surely you’re familiar with some of the more iconic Sorel styles, like the classic and oft-imitated Caribou Snow Boot. The Caribous have been mushing around for decades, loved by women, men and children, and they remain so popular today they’re almost synonymous with Sorel.
But did you know Sorel also has been upping its footwear fashion ante in recent years? Sorel now embraces a more urban market for its outdoorsy styles, and offers proof positive that warm, waterproof winter boots can also look hot. Case in point, Sorel’s wildly popular Joan of Arctic fur-trimmed boot (above left), featured in splashy Vogue magazine ads this fall and winter.
Sorel has also started up a fun Facebook page and Twitter account with photos of Sorel-wearing celebs, styling tips and fan comments to help promote the brand as not just “après-ski,” but “après-anything.”
Among Sorel’s cool current collection, we dig the Torino bootie, an updated classic Sorel style in playful colors and checks (right); and the Sorellington rain boots – a twist on traditional wellies, in fun color-block combinations. Don’t you love how the graphic white-and-black Sorellingtons (below) look kind of futuristic? Like sexy Star Wars Stormtrooper boots!
Want to win your own pair of Sorel winter boots?! It’s easy! Just send an e-mail with the subject line “SOREL BOOTS” to neatsheet@karenvitt.com, or leave a comment with your name and e-mail address on this post. We’ll pick a random lucky winner at noon on Sunday, Jan. 31. The winner can then take their pick of one cool pair of winter boots from Sorel’s entire collection. Good luck!
