Review on 👟 Merrell Women's Moab Hiking Sedona Athletic Shoes: Ultimate Support for Trail-Blazing Women by Melissa Cormier

I replaced an old pair of Merrell shoes that were no longer waterproof (not sure if they were ever waterproof). I spent a few bucks more to get Gore-Tex hoping they would be better, but the first time I wore them, my socks were wet on one side. I was hoping that water leaked out of my pants or something but today I tried again and of course the same side with wet socks. I live in a rainy area and I really need waterproofing! Is there something similar? It seems to be a mystery. Aside from these great shoes and good hiking but not what I really need and a waste of money I can just wear my old holey shoes.
