depends on your location
Would not wear the same boots in a Sahara apocalypse as in a Arctic apocalypse

BTW...This post was completely inspired by these boots:

Please give examples for each type of location.

those are bad ass....i have a pair of Alico hiking boots made in Italy (bought it off of Sierra Trading Post website)...cost me about 130$ 2 years ago and they are a great value for the money.

These seem to have been updated just a tad since I bought mine...all reviews are pretty high.

Hmmm- I was looking at the Doc Marten boots and they all seem to have a stitched down sole. That might be good if they had to be the last boots for a LONG time- stitch some tire tread on the bottom if needs must.

Rocky Boots............

Rocky Boots, that brand has been around for a long time, I had a pair of their hiking boots in the late 70s.

I just got a pair of Adidas "Trekker" boots at a discount place here, a style from a couple of years ago, they kick ass, they have the best tread on the bottom for ice that I've ever had, can't wait to wear them on my trip this January to visit the frozen northern plains.

Someone mentioned Sierra Trading Post, there's a web site to avoid if you want to hang onto your money :-) they have way too much cool stuff. A lot of it's really high-end stuff so even though it's marked down it's still expensive - but really nice stuff! High quality and some great deals.

Man, those are serious STORM TROOPER BOOTS!

Danner- A variety/style for all terrain/climate.

Spendy, but worth every copper.

Danner.Agreed.I have a pair of winter Danner boots,best boots I have ever owned.

add to that all the higher end Danner boots are MADE to be resoled,and Danner will do it for $40.00 if you send them in.In other words the uppers are made to last you a lifetime.
