Went walking yesterday and it was wet. Not soaking but wet. And my waterproof boots were sodden by the end. Still wet through now, if I was on a two day walking trip I wouldn't be able to wear them today. Only had them since May, and to be fair they haven't leaked before in less damp conditions but yesterday they were crap. I suppose the old advice that the sooner you accept your going to get wet feet if you do a lot of hiking still stands.
i got these for Christmas last year, http://www.lillywhites.com/mens/nike-rongbuk-high-mens-walking-shoes-182304?colcode=18230490 They've been fantastic, best boots i've ever had by far, my feet have never been wet in all time i've worn them, but i only walk from my car to mi peg and back again
I do loads of walking. I have 3 sets of boots. Always one pair with newspaper inside drying out & smelling like death. Getting piss wet through & covered in cow **** is part of the fun for me. Yes I'm a weirdo. I support BFC.
