Did you try adding rice? Maybe it'll absorb the water lmao

Check the seams and where the sole meets the upper part of the boot. Most cheap 'waterproof' boots save money by skimping on sealing those spots. And it's always those tiny puddles, isn't it? Smh.

Pro-tip for next time: don't just rely on what the label says. Look for customer reviews, see what they say about how the boot holds up in real conditions. Some places even have warranties or guarantees, so you can get your money back or a replacement if they aren't up to snuff.

SAME thing happened to me last week. First time out, stepped into like 2 inches of water and bam might as well been barefoot. Total scam.

I've been through my fair share of 'waterproof' boots that couldn't hold up against morning dew. Next time, do a test as soon as you get them—fill them with water and make them prove themselves before you trust them with your feet. Also, look for boots with a Gore-Tex label. Those haven't failed me yet!

Hate to break it to you but not all boots are created equal. You gotta check the fine print. Was it 'water-resistant' instead of 'waterproof'? Either way, if you got them from a decent place, they should take them back. If not, better invest in some good ol' rubber boots next time.

File a complaint, dude. False advertising is the scourge of the shopping realm. If we don't hold companies accountable, we'll all end up swimming in our 'waterproof' gear.

Welcome to the club of 'waterproof' lies and soggy feet. Should have called them 'water-attracting' boots. Rethink your life choices while squelching home, mate.
