Definitely not waterproof

Really comfortable shoes with bad Gore-Tex membrane. My third pair of Roclites from Inov-8.

But they should really start selling these without a membrane at all since it can't hold water out on a rainy day. Even morning dew in tall grass is a big problem for this pair of shoes.
Just don't get why they make such a great shoe with a bad Gore-Tex membrane and do not have the same shoe with just mesh upper sole.

I just returned from my daily run through the forest (it was raining) and I literally had to turn them upside down to let the water out.

Two stars ** only because they are really comfortable and have a great grip on rocky terrain.

Also on warm days (18°C +) membrane makes your feet really hot and after 30 minutes, your feet are also completely wet.

Buy these if you will use them in colder dry weather with a few drops of water here and there. Don't expect to have your feet dry after a shower storm or on a warm or hot day.

I think I will just buy La Sportiva Raptor next time since my friend today had completely dry feet after the same run.

Advantages
Stabilizes the foot
Comfortable
Lightweight
Good grip
Good For Running
Disadvantages
Not waterproof
Too Hot on a Warm Day
Only for Cold Dry Weather
