They are going to leak.
Whatever type you choose; rubber, neoprene, canvas, high speed new fabric, they are going to leak after you wear them a few times. Neoprene keeps you pretty warm, but they are heavy and not so good for wading to a hunting spot. I got more years out of a pair of Herter's Service Northerner than any other kind. They were good quality rubber and easy to patch. But they were also heavy and difficult to wade any distance in.
Pick out a pair that suits your type of hunting and just plan on replacing them every third year or so.
If you happen to hunt in real shallow water where hip boots work out, you are a lucky man.
