Are the "Dr. Martins" and "Cats" waterproof and if yes, available in Mumbai?
I have karrimor KSB - Brit army spec. 60 GBP. Waterproof in ankle deep water - all day tested.

By far the biggest mistake I did for leh. Once they are wet, nothing in hell/heaven dries them out completely. Although my feet sweat very less in them.

Just take usual adidas 2-3k level shoes. You don't need any better. Carry enough newspapers to dry them out overnight.
