MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
In my quest for some waterproof walking boots I've tried lined ones ( too warm ) and unlined para boots ( which weigh a kilo each) and nothing is as comfy as my trusty DMS.
They leak where boot meets sole.
Is there a flexible waterproof mastic that would stick to both the sole and the leather?
Gear aid aquaseal is very good; sometimes it's sold under the McNett brand name. Or any other urethane type glue should do it.
I used the gear aid stuff the other week (on my boots) and it seems to be very good so far.
Try some Altberg Warrior boots.
From Army surplus shop for preference...
Willyboy, that stuff looks perfect. Trying to work out if one tube will be enough. How long is a tube?
I think one tube should be enough. The tube is about 100mm long. Just make sure you clean the area to be glued really well.
Used the first mastic I could find in the shed on my most knackered boots and left them overnight.
Walked 3 miles in them this morning with no cracking. Will do some stream crossing on the way home. Hopefully no leaks.
