1. I walk into puddles with rain boots. I do not jump into them because then my clothes, skin, face, and etc would get muddy, let alone my boots. I like to keep my rain boots clean, since I’ll soon be wearing them into my home.
2. A few months ago, when I was wearing my rain boots at my local wholesale club, a lady came up and asked me, “Do your feet get wet in those?”
“No,” I said.
“Because I got rainboots but water got in them.”.
“That’s not normal. They are rainboots and water shouldn’t get into them. After a while, they can wear down. I’ve gone through many pairs because eventually they wear out. You’re talking about new boots?”
“Yes.”
… and then I recommended a couple of brands ..
Which leads us to another answer for you….
Just because someone is wearing rainboots does not mean that one’s feet won’t get wet.
I’ve actually worn holey rainboots on rainy days, and avoided puddles in said boots because they were no longer waterproof.
