Default Boot waterproofing

Not necessarily a bowhunting question but does anyone have any recommendatons on waterproofing boots? My insulated hunting boots are suposed to be waterproof but it doesn't take much moisture for my feet to get wet, like turkey hunting on a spring wet morning. I have sprayed them with water repelant but it didn't help much. Wondering if there is something that others out there really like. Thanks. Will be away from computer for a while but any discussion would be appreciated and i'll be back in a little while.

I'm not trying to be a smart @$$ but are you sure that water is seeping into them or is it just your feet are sweating due to lack of air circulation?

Try James Valley scents. They have a boot water proof and its also scent free and cleans your boot scent free. Good stuff been useing it for years. Good Deer scent products too!

Snow seal is the best leather waterproof out there. But its not scent free. It has no animal fat so it will not break down your leather. Mink oil ect is bad for leather boots. Snow seal is the BEST hands down!!
