I have 2 pair of Pronghorns. One pair has been rocked solid and just sprung a leak after 10yrs. The other newest pair leak if you walk across a damp yard. They are super comfortable but my new pair is not very waterproof.
I have Danner Elk Hunters and a couple other higher dollar Danners that are still waterproof.
The Elk Trackers look good but I’ve never used a pair.
Spray them with a silicone water proofer.

Same here, but I haven't used the heat gun. Strippers yes, but not the heat gun. That's a good idea.
Wax, even cheap crapper bowl rings do more for waterproofing a pair of boots than pretty much anything else I have tried. As long as there's no torn seams or blown out soles, wax does wonders to seemingly worn out boots.
