Everyone already thinks you are crazy, so boots would not be a factor.
I have a pair of leather Redwing boots I got in college to wear in
winter snow, they have waffle treads and no insulation, which at the
time was not really something you could find. I think they are in a box
somewhere, I would wear them occasionally when I was doing some sort of
work where they were useful. Last time I wore them I put some shoe oil
on them as they were drying out a bit (they originally had oily
leather). I guess I have at least 40 years in them now, maybe I should
wear them a bit more.

living in an urban area of florida, my use for boots is so limited, but i
really do desire them in my heart. i might someday get some wolverine 1000
mile boots and just wear them on the beach and let everyone think i'm
crazy.
check em out :)

Have you tried Redwing boots? I've got a pair of real "made in the USA",
again about $200 but they're super comfortable. I can wear them all day
with no problems. They were like that right out of the box, no long break
in time like lesser boots.
I've had mine I think 4 years at this point, no noticeable wear yet
although I don't wear them all that much in the summer.

I am wearing chinee work boots right now, this is maybe my 3rd or 4th
pair, I get a coupla years out of them and with the addition of gel
inserts they are reasonably comfy. $50 is "good enough." The chinee
dog food did kill my dog some years ago.

yeah, they work good. except when they don't.
those chinese shoes from walmart sometimes work too. but i'm still
wearing
alden's.
and their dog food doesn't kill your dog right away every time either and
it really works for a long time till fido gets that cancer. i mean, it
could have been second hand smoke that did him in?
