Based on the description it doesn't sound like these boots drain, so how comfortable can water-filled boots be? I have an ancient pair of Danner Ft. Lewis boots that are quite good for caving in up to ankle-deep water, but that Gore-Tex liner does a great job of holding in water from deeper crossings unless I hang myself or the boots upside down. Military surplus jungle boots have drain eyelets in the instep and have worked better for me in wet caves where thigh-deep water alternates with beaches and breakdown, especially when used with Seal Skinz waterproof socks and wool liner socks. Am I missing something with the Joops?
