[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1498431, member: 87243"] This is my first year with their boots, and I recently put alot of stress on them. Had a 5 mile pack out with an elk, through a winding trail in a bottom of a canyon. In that 5 miles each way there was pronably 20+ river crossings, so 40 or more river crossings in and out, and I did it twice in two days. The first day my feet stayed completely dry, until I stepped a little too deep on the walk out and flooded my boots, that sucked. I had forgot my boot dryer in a camper at my parents house, so they set over the vent for the night. The next morning they were not dry, I wore a thick pair of socks driving out to the trail head then changed them in hopes that I would absorb some of the moisture. By the end of the day, probably 60-70% of my socks were wet, with portions of dry. I oiled my boots with the kenetrek brand stuff the day I got them, then again after a 25 mile break in period, and will do so again after season. My experience so far on my first year. [/QUOTE]
