Ive got several brands pairs all $200 plus boots . One brand I kinda like the best for waterproof / comfort/ ruggedness is discontinued
I like mid height , hiking type boots 5"6"7" ..... I have Danners(3 different styles), Lowa renegadeGTX, Vasque St Elias, Irish setter etc
I might try some "light" Mindels next
Oh I like Irish setter wingshooters for comfort and durability but they are "too dang heavy" and the soles are too slick. I Use them when working around my property
