walking boots-- which are good?

I would not choose one over the other based on the slight breathability advantage of Gore-Tex, But eVent has been tested as a fair bit more breathable than Goretex, because they avoid the PU smear over the microporous membrane that restricts Goretex's breathability. The test I saw the video of on-line showed Gore-Tex being slightly more breathable, but I'm sure there are tests that show the opposite as well--depends on who's doing the testing. It doesn't really matter which one, though I've never seen eVent on boots, only on garments, while Gore-Tex is widely used on shoes and boots. |
