A plastic interlayer (10) is included between the external upper (2) and the inner (3). The interlayer extends around the entire periphery of the seam stitching (7) at the edge of the base insert, and is encapsulated into the thermoplastic (8) of the external sole (4). An Independent claim is included for the method of making the waterproof boot. After assembly of the components as described, they are introduced into a mold for the sole, into which the thermoplastic is injected to encapsulate the L-section.
