Boots that don't leak?

[SPP]

I also have Gaerne Aquatech that were recommended by a friend.

Great boots in the wet. No leaks at all even when really bucketing down. I think they were $250.

They all seem to be good when new I would like to know how they are after about 20,000km and 2 years wear.
I would wear motocross boots if they werent so bloody uncomfortable, they defintely dont leak, even standing in mud & water 300mm deep.
Might go get some some of these calf length work boots John Bull or something, they shouldnt leak. Better for kicking cagers doors in when they get too close..Haha

I have a pair of StylMartin Boots, the actual brand is StylContori. Not very sexy or cool I agree, but completely waterproof and as warm as boots get. Have had them for 5 years now. Only moderate use over the years, but have they have never let me down at all.

Not hugely expensive either, the amount of $250 springs to mind. Hells teeth best money I ever spent. Got them at Motomail.

My MX boots are very comfy.
They also leak if you even look at mud and water 300mm deep.

see above:
Yep, my boots (Gaerne Aquatech) are just going on 2 years and 45,000km of daily commutting. I've worn a hole in the sole right where I flick the kick stand but thats probably because I used to walk around in them quite a bit.

They still don't leak… but do smell funny though... and are a bit warm in summer.

Hey,

I have some Gaerne GRW aquatechs, and I have to agree with the others- they are a brilliant all-round boot. Dry, comfortable and they look pretty sweet! Check em out

I m just curious is there KB'rs out there that have mc boots that don't leak in the pouring rain.
I paid $300 for my Oxtar boots , they leak like a sieve, most uncomfortable after about 10mins.
Fine on a damp road but when the road has puddles on it their useless.
Bloody Warehouse gumboots would be better.

I just bought some R-Jays in Aussie - my new technic gloves were soaking wet, but first time ever, my feet were snug and dry still

I got these liners with my Gaerne, Pro-Tek, they are F**Kin awesome, I even have a pair for my MX boots the only time my feet get wet there is if the river crossing water level is above my knees, Im more worried about stalling than wet feet haha

I just bought the cheapest boots I could find, $199.00 Strada's. Absolutely, totally waterproof when riding. Nice and warm too, unlike the $10.00 Warehouse gumboots I used to wear.

I have gone to waterproof socks instead. Sealskinz... waterproof socks.

Worked well enough for me in the pouring rain.

Here is the link for Sealskinz: http://www.sealskinz.com/

I remember last year someone on KB saying they simply put plastic bags on their feet before putting on their boots. Sealskinz waterproof socks are breathable but plastic bags would probably be OK in cold weather.

I have 1Tonne touring boots that are waterproof, and only $135. Riding in a very heavy rain storm for 2 hours they did leak but only very little and nothing to worry about. In all other rain they have been waterproof although I did apply Dubbin.

Which model?

Delta RS.
I can honestly say that they have never let in a drop in the worst of weathers or the muddiest of rally sites.

I see you also have a waterproof glove cover in the pic...

Stylmartins - I had a look at their site http://www.stylmartin.com/eng/index.htm and the Delta R is most like mine.

3 winters 100% waterproof so far and comfortable too.

My Sidi boots do not leak either.

Neither do mine. They hold water perfectly.
