Im just looking for shoes and/or boots that have soles that look like EXACTLY this and are waterproof and BIFL. My feet dont taper and look big and flat EXACTLY like this sole (I dont know if I have a disorder or if my feet are just naturally supposed to be like this)

These boots in the picture are from the company manitobah and most reviews conclude that the boots are not as waterproof as theyre advertised to be.

The sneakers Im using right now for winter and the rest of the year I bought frkm a company called last resort AB cause that particular model of sneakers they sold had surprisingly wide soles. However these sneakers are very low quality cause the soles of the last resort AB sneakers broke open after only 3 months of using them . I get my socks super wet when I go for walks in the winter and in the rain obviously. Annd the last resort sneakers are not waterproof at all in the top of the sneaker.

Or should I just get it custom made?

Also I live in toronto so any recommendations have to be able to be shipped here or to a nearby city.

Also I dont care if theyre barefoot shoes/boots or not.

Also I dont mind having to wax the entirety of the boot to keep them waterproof

No budget limit.

Thanks.

    Thanks.

    I like how the sole of that particular boot in the picture barely has a taper…What particular model of vivobarefoot boots is that please ? Also do they still make that model?

      Oh the reason I picked this brand is they have a few models that can be resoled apparently. So if that interests you, check their posts on it to see what shoes exactly.

        I realize that based on how much walking I do Ill probably need something thats resoleable so thanks for that.

          You must do a lot of walking. I used to work retail walking over 20k steps a day on concrete and never didn’t wear out the top of the shoe with tread left 😝
          Here’s hoping this is my first one :D
          They also have a partner shop in the USA that can do retreads for whatever those shoes are.

              20k steps a day was more than a few KM a day :p
              But I was walking on smooth ish concrete and tile, probably different with outside walking.

      Model: Tracker Leather AT II Mens Bracken
      I only just bought them so they should still have it.
      I also can’t feel any arch in the inside, seems pretty much completely flat.
