    I need some casual waterproof boots for the Pacific North West. I bought some Blundstones but I'm really not liking the style. I'm thinking of getting these now...

    • NOT WATERPROOF AT ALL. Had these in black, had to return them after the first time I wore them in the rain. Like fucking sponges.ian

    • palladium do a goretex versionset
    • Nope, they do a waterproof version with a big 'waterproof' logo on the front. Which just means the leather won't get destroyed by water. http://www.palladium…ian
    • destroyed by water. Heres their full range. No goretex, just 'waterproof leater'. http://www.palladium…ian
    • so the "waterproof" version isn't waterproof or did you get the regal version?

    • I got that exact pair you linked, in black. Walked the dog one morning in the rain, feet were completely soaked within 5 mins.ian
    • And the few times I wore them before that and the ground was wet, was like being on an ice rink. No grip whatsoever.ian
    • hmm, are you sure you got the ones with the blue WATERPROOF logo on the tongue?fooler
    • Big waterproof logo, little tag hanging off the eyelets with 'waterproof' on it. Asked the shop staff before I tried them on 'Are these waterproof' and was told yes.ian

    • Returned them two after the first rain, then had to wait a couple of weeks for them to determine if they were waterproof.ian
    • They were not, so I got a refund. They weren't defective, just not waterproof. Just a fashion brand.ian
