Lowa Men's Renegade GTX Mid Ankle Boot

I have used these boots for the last 15 years. I and very lucky to be out in the field about 100 days a year. They handle every kind of terrain I have been in. From hiking in the flat land cactus country to the craggy peaks over 11,000. These should at least be one of your serious choices to look at. They are super super comfortable for my feet and are waterproof. I get about 4 years out of them. Make sure you put leather conditioner on them so they stay supple and waterproof. DO NOT skimp on footwear. You get what you pay for and you only cry once when you buy the best!
