Been looking for a new pair of boots for walking the dogs, wearing when helping with D of E expeditions and general outside/bushcraft things. I already have a pair of surplus Altbergs that are comfortable but I have to wear Sealkins sock with them as they leak like a sieve at the front of the boot. I have seen some Hanwag special forces boots for sale and like the look of them. you can by them with either a leather lining or goretex lining. Was wondering whether anyone has experience of these boots and how waterproof the leather lined ones would be if looked after. I live in North Cornwall so it is fairly wet here and they would be worn most days, probably alternated with Altbergs to let them dry. Any advice welcome. Cheers Tim
