The lower part of the tongue and the tongue bag are made from hydrophobic nubuk leather.
Tongue bag, casing, and heel flexing leather
I am translating a hunting boot specification into Croatian and I came across this term and I am not quite sure I understand what it is. Any ideas are welcome. Thanks.

Oh my goodness! You have a gusseted tongue?! That sounds terrible!
Well, not really. It sounds like some horrendous disease, but it isn’t.
A gusseted tongue refers to boots, whether hiking, work, or military boots. It is a type of tongue in boots that prevents dirt, water, pebbles, and sand from entering your boots through the lace eyelets or the space between the tongue and the upper part of the boot. A gusseted tongue is sewn to the upper of the boot behind the laces, thus attached to both sides of the boot. To ensure the best water-proofing of your tactical boots, a gusseted tongue is an essential requirement.

There's a picture in the following link
From Debris — The fully gusseted tongue keeps anything from getting inside. Dirt under your front laces will not work their way into the boot. Your feet are protected from dirt, mud, sand, and debris.
