3 levels of waterproofing
During the waterproofness test, we test 3 levels of waterproofness:
- flexed 2000 times, approx. 2 hours’ walking
- flexed 4000 times, approx. 4 hours’ walking
- flexed 8000 times, approx. 8 hours’ walking
The NH500 Mid WP women’s boots were laboratory tested to withstand being flexed 8000 times. They are therefore waterproof for 8 hours walking. Of course, once the shoes have dried out, they are waterproof once again.
