Your Next Rain-Ready Footwear Favorite Has Finally Arrived With the SOREL Ambler Mule

The slip-on culture has fully taken over modern footwear, but SOREL just stepped into the arena with a move that feels equal parts heritage flex and tactical upgrade. Enter the Ambler—a low-profile mule that takes the unmistakable design DNA of SOREL’s legendary Canadian Caribou boot and transforms it into a lightweight, year-round staple. Debuting for Fall ’26 at an accessible $130 price point, the silhouette bridges the gap between heavy-duty utility and clean, high-street design. It’s a category-defying release that proves heavyweight, winter-ready protection can seamlessly translate into a sleek, daily mule.

Don't let the open-back entry fool you; the Ambler is built to handle the elements with serious authority. Constructed with a premium waterproof nubuck upper and a protective leather shell, it keeps weather completely locked out while delivering the brand's iconic rugged look. Underneath, a plush EVA midsole and soft textile lining offer responsive cushioning for all-day comfort on urban pavement or weekend trips. SOREL is also expanding the lineup beyond the core model with elevated treatments, including a ultra-refined leather LX edition and a cozy, plush Fireside variant designed for max comfort.

What makes the Ambler a instant rotational staple is its balance of technical specs and effortless wearing. The distinct vulcanized rubber shell, bold contrast piping, and low-slung proportions give it an understated flex that pairs as naturally with relaxed cargo pants as it does with cropped, tailored trousers. It delivers the weather-proof reliability of a heavy boot without any of the bulk, keeping your footwear game dialed in regardless of the forecast.
