Getting new hiking boots that I'm told are *definitely* waterproof and also they fit properly (a half-size!!!!).  They are ugly as ever, but they're supposed to be really good. :)

They are Trezeta brand boots, made in Italy.  I was so pleased because this line is in European sizing, so I was able to get them in 40 -- which is a UK 6.5!  I've been struggling with boots that are a 6 - and my toes getting cramped in the end (especially on downhills).  The sole is also supposed to be good for walking on rocks & such.  Still I hate to start wearing them 'cause they look so nice now, and I know they'll be covered in mud after one walk. :P
