Spend some serious money on good boots.
Make sure they fit well, even with thick socks, and have some water-proofing or gortex protection for weather. Be careful of the weight, because you'll be lifting those extra ounces every step you take.
Others here are wiser than I am about brand names and finer points, but I know that boots can make or break virtually every hunting experience.
Have fun and be safe.
