>>2345097I have not seen a single person wearing sneakers the the bush outside of manicured trails on the way to huts, if you want your shoes to be waterproof they have to be taller than the water you are stepping into or the water comes in the top and for rain to be tall enough to go up into your waterproof pants without leaving a gap, so the closest you will get to a functioning waterproof sneaker is a lightweight high-top which I what I recommended.
you seethe at boots because you either cant afford them, idolise ultralight Instagram fags who get paid to shill footwear or have no experience in difficult terrain where water and bad footing will fuck up your day
