ive had a pair of magnums for.... 2.5 years now. i use them every sunday for gameing, we have wet marshy areas that i go through regularly. the work extreemly well, the use to keep water out, but i havent sealed the seams for some time,but they still are water reistant. the boot finish (i havent exposed them to extreem cold) is still intact. the only issue youve raised that i can agree on is the laces untying themselves, but if thats a problem you can replace with kevlar laces. i would reccommend trying them again fox, they are a great boot.

How much did you pay for them? How they water proof?

Mine where awfull on my feets after a lot of walking. Laces undoing themself often, taking on water by merely walking in shallow water puddle. They even gave me blister when just sitting around in a patrol car... Go figure!

And in winter, the faux leather laminated on the front and side of the boot came appart...

I hope they improved, as I need a cheap pair of boot to walk in deep mud and deep water.
