If you are talking just 'waterproof'-ness, for touring, I went old-fashioned, with a pair of rubber galoshes, for around $20 ($30?).  They cover my shoes to mid-calf, when it's raining, but other than that, my feet can breathe when I'm not wearing them.  They have decent tread on the bottom, so I can put my feet down, at a stop, with confidence.  I've had a couple of chances to wear them on tour, and they performed quite well.  If you want an all-around boot, then go with something made of Gore-Tex, to achieve waterproof-ness, while still being able to breathe, and get rid of perspiration.  Cheers!
