I've been getting pissed off with getting wet feet since changing from my nearly waterproof Forma Adventure boots, to the water magnet Alpinestars Tech.

In the name of science I concluded rather than find out where the water goes in, to fill them with water and see where it comes out.

Suffice to say, the results were not promising at all, and due to the design and materials these boots will never be waterproof in any reasonable way.

The only answer is Goretex bootliners, they are the win.

My Forma Adventures were really good, could fill them up and they were still full 30mins later, the tech 3's are empty in less than 5 mins.

That being said the Forma's lasted me 6 months before they fell apart.
