The "Waterproof" test for a product to be rated as waterproof was 500 steps in 1cm of water. It has now been increased to 1,000 steps in 3cm of water (no material can ever be 100% waterproof it will always have some ingress). If you are working in very wet conditions GORE-TEX lined products will give a better level of protection as they have set the standard at 25,0000 steps in 5cm of water. Wellingtons are only waterproof to a point. For example, if you're using a pressure washer, this is at a much higher pressure than rain and very few wellingtons can withstand this sort of pressure.
