I have great goretex boots for winter but what do you recommend for summer? i bought some northface goretex trainers last year. I thought Goretex were all waterproof but these certainly werent! they are now beginning to fall apart so need to start looking again!
So what have you found are waterproof, cool and durable?

watch out if you buy online from www.sportsdirect.com , because they peddle some fakes online whereas in their shops its the real deal (i think)on the shelves . how i discovered is iv bought a few trainers from them ,all the same model but the onliners are fake ,easy to spot too if you compare like for like
. i explained this to a senior salesbod in their shop and he had a close look and said he couldnt understand it -yeah right
they never respond to my emails queries on the subject , im thinking they might make tens of thousands by doing this ,perhaps millions !

do you really think a company of this size needs to deal in fake trainers ::)

i bought the same as you northface thinking they would be water tight but after 1 year they are falling apart seen these bit cheaper than northface havnt bought a pair yet so cant comment on how water proof they are http://www.amazon.co.uk/Nike-Rongbuk-Gore-Tex-Waterproof-Walking/dp/B005ANDGVM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1320359513&sr=8-1

maybe you need a new pair of wellies this summer :(

I wear these summer and winter, they last forever, never leak and are extremely comfortable with a pair on insoles in them
