I wear Danners 365 days a year, my "Full Curl" model are 2 yrs old and still don't leak. I had a pair of "Pronghorns" that leaked after a yr and a half, I sent them back to the factory in Oregon after complaining about them via Email and they sent me a new pair. Good service since they were only guaranteed for one yr. They sent me an email telling me to cut my big toe nails more often...PR

If you want your feet to stay dry, you got to have rubber boots. Same goes for your body, get a rubber rainsuit. Gore Tex is the biggest ripoff there is in waterproofing.
Time spent alone in the woods puts you closer to God.

"Can't" never accomplished anything.

Contact Danner, let them know hey are a year old and leaking. They generally do what they can to make things right.

Yep 18" high  Rubber Boots only way to go. I have pairs for early to late season. Here in Jersey it gets kinda cold too during Winter Bow.

I have a couple pair of Danner Pronghorns and the older pair seep even though I use Snowseal two or three times a year.They hold for a while then seep again, but they have several hundred miles on them and are so darn comfortable I over look it.When I really need the waterproof I put overshoes on.   Ben

Rubber boots for walking , gortex for stand hunting.
Proverbs 12:27
The lazy do not roast any game,
but the diligent feed on the riches of the hunt.
