I'm wearing 20 - 25Y old brown leader (pig) high boots (15 cm below my knee), hand made by one of the Italian/US shoemakers.

Sometimes, I have to wear them in the classroom, however students eyes always get off the books, and onto my boots.

 

I don't do any plastic/rubber in my apparel. 100% waterproof will kill/cook your feet. I'm very naturalistic guy. 

If you wear (fisherman's) rubber boots, your feet will sweat extensively, what will make your socks 'wet' (and smelly). So, what did you protect yourself from? Rain, snow, humidity?

I think, it's better to have several pairs of quality shoes and (dry) socks for rainy weather, and exchange it accordingly.

I used Crocs a long time.... at first I thought that I would hate them.  then after giving them a chance it turned out I love them...  they didn't rub blisters on my feet which was my #1 surprise.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
