What to do when your waterproof boots leak?

[hustler898]

I went out and bought a different boot to use in wet conditions, LOL. They are Earth Shoes hiking boots no goretex there. Inexpensive but very comfortable. They are waterproof and are marked as so. I have stood in water nearly up to my ankles on many occasions and they have never leaked. Over the past week or so they began leaking by just standing in the rain or walking through wet undergrowth.

I have some of that silcone water repellent spray. I may just hit them with that or wax and continue using them in warmer weather. Thanks everyone for the info.
