What he said. Mine are now 7 years old, and am in the process of sending back for rebuild, which costs about a third of new.

They make one model in a narrow width, for those who need that.

I vote is for Crusierworks. Over all best for comfort ,waterproof, long lasting.and resole-able. Feel like slippers right out of the box.

I am a fan of Red Wing 980 Lace-Up Boots.

They are comfortable for walking and/or all day riding. Still, I would not wear them on a serious hike, just as I would not wear my hiking boots for riding.

Geezer, check out this company, they save me about 40% when compared to the local dealer. I always get Chippewa, they don't suck.http://www.chucksbootsandleathers.co...277559bfe934da

I left my Corcoran jump boots (82nd Abn) in the garage for about 15 years. They got dry rotted, had to ditch em.
Anything you buy now is made in China. My red wings were a good price and they are comfortable.
Those Corcoran boots used to be made in Brockton Mass before they moved out to Asia somewhere. Too bad.
