Since moving to Goretex lined [Cordura outer preferred over leather] boots some years ago, I have never looked back. Sure your feet feel a tad clammy, but never wet.
As for durability, the boots [Saloman, Lowa, Danner] have remained waterproof right up to the soles wore out. And as for footrot, well the only time I had a problem in this area was years ago whilst wearing a pair of leather boots that did not get a chance to dry for a week.
