Im going to be working as a lift op. this winter, so I'll be standing and working in snow all day. Anyone use them for similar work? How is the traction on them?
thanks

Mike I have had a pair of Caribous for over 30 years and am just now having to replace the liners. I wear shoe chains (available at most mountaineering shops and REI, for the ice. They work great on the Sorels and don't interfere with walking.

These are what 99% of the lift ops wear. If you can plan on adding a second felt insole, believe me this helps a lot when standing on snow all day (you don't have to stamp your feet as much ;) ) the traction is fine on snow you still need to watch out on ice.
