Helly Hansen in snow

How does Helly Hansen berthed 3 waterproof leather shoes deal with snow? Here's one hour walk in -2 celsius degrees and a little bit of snow:



After a half hour of walk the feet are soaking wet!!! So Helly Hansen waterproof leather shoes are NOT a good choise for snow - they are not snowproof! :D How come this bad shoes do exist in markets???

Helly Hansen - Made in Vietnam

Lets take a peek inside the shoe. Note the strings (1) sewed through the shoe - those are the same sewings presented below that let the water in. The strings are left loose!!! They are not tied or glued to anything!
The sewings overall (2) are also badly done anyhow.



I wonder how long these shoes will last. My guess is less than a year.
This is Helly Hansen Quality - Made in Vietnam!
