I have recently added a pair of waterproof boots to my collection of Hey Dude shoes and boots. The waterproof boots are of the same high quality and light weight of the other footwear, and the soles appear tough and grippy enough for wet weather walking. The thermal insulation to the sole is a good plus, and noticeably effective. My only niggle is that I’m not sure that the elasticated laces work as well on these boots as on my softer boots. The waterproof boots are stiffer than the other boots, and need more of a push to get them on; this displaces the inner sole or results in socks tight against toes! I think the waterproof boots might work better for me with conventional laces, which I will try next. I’ll still likely to buy another pair of the waterproof boots though.
