I've used jungle boots exclusively for backpacking in wet environments as who wants to change footgear at every crossing? Or wring out socks? BUT in the winter when it's important to have a reasonably dry pair of boots, I now just hump in Crocs. I know, it sounds like a crappy solution as the things are fragile, but even with a 70 pound pack I can put in alot of miles on trails that have numerous creek crossings with the things. Had only one blowout and that was when duck-walking under a blowdown where I lost a side-grommet snap.
