Does anyone have any experience of Gore-Tex boots vs their non-Goretex counterparts?

I’m trying to weigh up whether to go for the Gore-Tex version of the TCX S-Speed.
standard = £170
regular waterproof/breathable = £190
Gore-tex = £220

An extra £20 for the waterproof version make sense for commuting. But another £30 / £50 makes it quite pricey. Will I actually notice the difference?

I've never known 'waterproof' boots stay waterproof for long, but my Gore-tex ones did.

Cheers. I guess in the grand scheme of things and as a % of the boots it's manageable.

I tried on a couple of Dianese boots. The Gore-tex ones are good vfm but still didn't quite hit the mark.
