Your old pair are exactlly like mine and its 32 deg out right now and will go take them for a ride. I bought them out of the Mag in 1975 and they are still good. Made in USA. Chippewa likley made Easy Riders boots. Don over and out>>>>>

There are also cruiser works boots made in usa and are supposed to quite comfy. OG amde in Englad Doc's are my personal fave, although they used to be made in Englad as opposed to China. Next time redwings here.

+1. I bought mine in 1996 and wore them for work (Special Forces) until we changed to brown boots in 2006. I also wear them for riding. They also offer a "boot re-crafting" service. I might be sending mine in soon as my wife complains about the smelly liners. She asked what I would say if she asked me to get rid of them. I told her I had the boots before her and I can have them after her
