I ordered these from Leatherup.com. I used to wear my boots to work, and change to shoes when I got there. Since I got these, I just wear them all day (and night). Very comfortable, easy to get on and off, good grip on the road when stopped or backing up.

Get a pair of new Marine boots. Made by Belleville, they are incredible compared to the old ones.

I also have a pair of Bates security boots that are really nice, too. They have the zipper side and are really nice to get on.

Double H boot company - only thing I put on my feet anymore. The lace up "Packer" or the lace up "Logger" are my favorites.

Ruger, I go here, Chippewa boots last forever. Chuck's Boots beats my local store by about 35%. The salespeople are actually interested in helping you.

Double H western work boot cause I'm too lazy to lace anything on my feet. On my second pair in over 20 years. I use mink oil (once a year) to waterproof them. They are really getting pricey these days.

I bought the Cruiserworks that lasted me 8 years. Weatherproof, warm, acid/oil resistant soles and usually they run around $140 I think.

I just picked up some HD boots at the dealer, I like the higher sole and the zip up side plus they are very comfortable.

Please don't turn this into a made in china thread.Thanks.

Then you had probably not buy HD, because if I'm not mistaken the majority of their boots are made out of the country, specifically in China.

Shame on them for not supporting the american bootmakers, and clothiers, etc. etc. etc.
