Bad Moral Marketing
When Helly Hansen is marketing their non-waterproof shoes as "waterproof leather" shoes, they apparently justify their deeds with the fact(?) that the leather is waterproof (if it is). They don't give a damn about the More Important Fact that the shoe leaks like a strainer. Well I think that's a bad moral marketing & misleading and overlooking the customer. They don't give a shit about you as a customer.
2. Complainment
The second product complainment about unwaterproof waterproof leather shoes sent to Helly Hansen 13.11.2009. The site promises again they will contact me. Well they did not.

Wet socks
Here I am walking on forest, can Helly Hansen WaterProof leather shoes survive on this?
No Way they can! The seams of the shoes leak also and even moist twigs are enough to get your socks wet.
The walking procedure with Helly Hansen WaterProof leather shoes goes like this:
1. Wear the shoes and go walking
2. Turn back home when your feet are all wet and cold
3. Change dry socks
4. Set the shoes to a warm place to dry up

Complaining
First product feedback sent to Helly Hensen 13.11.2009.
"Well get back to you" says the text, but that also seems to be a lie.

Revealing the 'WaterProof'
Well are the shoes waterproof then? The hell they are! Helly Hansen decided to sew a string in front of the shoe:
The string (and of course the needle holes) goes straight through the shoe. Now think about the cylinder and the piston in it. The shoe and a foot forms a similar construction and as the foot moves in the shoe, it's like a moving piston in a cylinder. Then the needle holes are like valves guaranteed the water a free passage into the shoe.
So, in practise The shoe sucks the water in!
The Helly Hansen WaterProof leather shoes are a guarantee to wet your feet!

Helly Hansen WaterProof leather shoes
Hello! This is a blog for my brand new Helly Hansen WaterProof leather shoes!
They are quite pretty aren't they? I bought them a couple of weeks ago from a sportswear shop. The seller told they are waterproof, because on the pagage was printed a text: "WaterProof leather". It reads also in the side of the shoe: "WaterProof leather".
The shoes were supposed to guarantee me some nice walks in the forest paths.
