[#800000][font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]The air valve had one purpose, and one purpose only. It was opened when the wearer was going airborne. They would be opened to equalize the pressure variances experienced in flight. They should NOT used to inflate the boot - ever.[/size][/font][/#800000]

[#800000][font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]I was issued Mukluks in Alaska where the temps got down to - 52 degrees F the year I was up at King Salmon. I wore them while ice fishing in - 20 degree temps on several occasions and my feet never got cold. You are correct that they are NOT waterproof in the least. However, at - 20, we didn't experience a lot of liquid water. [
