We simply check for any bubbles on the surface like a pierced air chamber.\nTest 2: Thanks to a mechanical arm that simulates walking, the entire boots are half immersed in water and they complete thousands of flexes to check that the inside of the boot remains dry and it is therefore waterproof.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e5 levels of waterproofing\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuring the waterproofness test, we test 5 levels of waterproofness:\n- 2,000 flexes (approximately 4 km, 30 minutes of walking)\n- 10,000 flexes (approximately 10 km, 3 hours of walking)\n- 30,000 flexes (approximately 15 km, 6 hours of walking)\n- 50,000 flexes (approximately 20 km, 8 hours of walking)\n- 100,000 flexes (approximately \u0026gt;20 km, 24 hours of walking)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTry your boots out step by step\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eHow to choose your boots:\n1.
