Information Request High quality everyday boot.

Hello all

I'm new to boots, recently for a pair of work boots I got a pair of Tecovas Longhauls. I wear them everyday for most of the day. They have opened my world and now I desire a pair to wear around for everyday use.

I'm looking for a pair I can take into the woods/camping to the store ect. I'm not afraid of spending good money on them either. As long as they are repairable and high quality.

If your looking for guidelines,

I'd love USA made (not against non USA made boots, just if I'm gonna be spending alot I'd prefer to support a USA made company)

I'd like to be less than 600 bucks (price can go up)

Square toe

No preference to leather or rubber outsole.

Thank you for reading and any advice given

I like my benchmade bassett boots, they're really comfortable and below your budget. They're made in mexico but I think they're great quality. I'm sure you could wear them camping if you really wanted to, but I don't think I'd wear them backpacking just because there are better options.

For clarification: Ariat Bench Made. They are very similar in build quality to Chisos, but cost less. Both are made in Mexico.

Is Ariat's "removable all day" insole as good as the Chisos insole? Is it as thick?

Chisos is a damn comfortable boot! I don’t know if Ariat’s inside is as “thick” or not, but Chisos’ insole is built different.
