waterproof shoes

Avatar

ahoy peeps,
i want to get some new kicks for wearing at the snow when im not boarding. Id be wearing these over in japow aswell so im after some that are waterproof and have a tongue gusset thing to keep that pesky snow out.
Last year i got some globe x dryazabone collabs, but theres no tongue gusset to keep the snow out which is a bit dumb seeing as the rest of the shoe is waterproof confused
Anyhow ive found these that i quite like but im wondering if you guys know of any others i should check out


dvs hawthorne



vans chukka del pato

Even though those two have the duck shoe front im not only looking at that type.

I would check out what DC have to offer. I have a pair of DC boots that I wear all the time in Whistler. Super comfy and they keep me super dry even in really wet conditions. I can’t remember the model name but check out their range.

Heaps from overseas BK. Only found them on one site here in oz and i didnt care for the colourway. The sites name is the horrible pairing of a couple of words one of which will haunt our lifestyle recreation choices until the end of time i believe
