Thread: Best boots for waterproof socks

Tried out a pair of dexshel waterproof socks.
They worked.
Had to do 5-6 river crossing and they stayed dry each day.
The top of the socks combined with neoprene putties work.

Wandered across the Tongariro crossing the other day and they were pretty good comfort wise in the dry too.

Problem is my waterproof boots that are past it fill up with water.
These boots are fairly old and are not waterproof now but the water stays in them so have to take off to empty out.
Will probably drill some holes in the instep to hopefully get the water to pump out.

Question is what boot has any body used that works best with these socks.
I want to buy new waterproof boots for hunting that doesn't involve river/stream crossings.
But do not want to drill holes in them.
Just need a pair to use when plodding through water.
Any ideas?.
