    think about the time you are putting in those
    and you expect them to last two years ...Good luck
    most all the American named boots are not made here
    ...they make em different across the sea
    If I get 6 mths out of a pair of every day boots I feel lucky
    Hit em'hard
    hit em'often

    I wear zamberlan hunting boots year around. Exspensive, but you get what you pay for

    My favorite. Made in the USA with leather made in Chicago. Do a search, I found them for under $120..

    Tim, White's Boots, Spokane,WA. I have been wearing their boots since 1981. They will measure your feet and custom make them to fit, and they do fit. They also rebuild your boots for about half the cost of new. The only thing "old" when you get them rebuilt is the upper. Trust me, I have been very hard on boots in my lifetime as a mechanic, lineman, packer. They build a quality boot that cost money but they go the extra mile. I think I've only wore out 3 pair since 81. I presently have 4 pair that I rotate. I usually go thru 3 or 4 re-sole jobs from a local shoe shop before I have to send them back to White's for rebuild and they are usually good for 3 or 4 rebuilds before White's laughs at you when you bring them in.

    One more endorsement for White Boots of Spokane, Wa. Kinda spendy, hand built to last...takes a bit to break in (there are a couple short cuts for this) and they have a lot of arch support that takes some a while to get used to but they are the best boots you can put on your feet bar none....

    West coast boot company, the pair I wear I don't want to take off and look forward to putting them on in the morning but they take a long time to break in.
