philmayfield 6,089 Posted January 31, 2023 Report Share Posted January 31, 2023 If the holes were fitted with one way valves it might solve the problem. I reckon I could patent that design! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
plantfit 7,534 Posted January 31, 2023 Report Share Posted January 31, 2023 This sounds like a good business idea in the making, welly snorkels, one way welly boot valves, look out dragons den the Nottingham inventors are on the loose Rog Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beekay 5,094 Posted January 31, 2023 Report Share Posted January 31, 2023 The one -way valve could be fitted with a simple bellows system whereas when the foot was put down on the surface when walking, the air could be pumped into the inner area and circulate around the foot. Wasted air could be expelled through the top, thereby avoiding a build up of excess gas. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
