The OP of the thread is going to be working in marshy and mainly wet conditions. I looked at the boots he bought for the job. They are a nice boot. Unfortunately they are a poor choice for the task at hand. The uppers are leather which is good but it is not waterproof leather or lined with say goretex. The second problem is the tread on the sole. It it far too smooth to be effective in mud and muck. The tread should be a self cleaning lug of some kind. It is not fun slipping off a log or a rock because of poor traction. A far better choice would have been a boot designed for upland hunting that is waterproof.
Sorry if this hurts but it is something you really need to know.
