Duck boot all weather does not live up to its name
I was at first delighted to find a Sporto Duck Boot to replace my old and worn out boots of the same name. The price seemed reasonable, too. But the new version is not to my liking. The leather top is ok, but lacks the thickness and ruggedness of the older pair. The fabric tongue will not repel water, but rather it will soak up any wetness. The sole of the boot is not rugged at all. I guess I will relegate these boots to the back of the closet and pull them out when I want to wear something that looks good but is no good in wet or snowy weather.
