Looking for a boot similar to this one
Pull on style, but not cowboyish, low on the height scale i.e. 8 in or so, not knee high, and I don't want to spend $300 on it, you get what you pay for I know, but still....any  suggestions?
ETA: for wearing all the time, not work

Looks like a fashion statement.



Lace up boots stay on during work, those are all I know.




The best I've found were ecco's. Most comfortable and I've been beating the shit out of them for over a year.




Like these-











But these may be more your style-

I paid $150 for Redwings like that at a Tractor Supply in Clinton Iowa last year..........US made ,  and steel toed . Very comfortable for over a year now at work , and I'm hard on boots.
I call em 'Wellingtons' as far as the style goes.

Yah I think wellington is the style, as far as "fashion"......whatever, I just prefer pull ons, but if I buy a pair of boots I don't want to have to buy another pair for at least a year preferably 2 or more

Yeah, I was just fuckin with you man.


 



Ecco makes great boots. I work construction and mine are good for another year at least. I bought them in summer '08.




If you can find a style that suits you I'd recommend them. Most comfortable boots I've ever had.

appreciate it, never heard of Ecco before. I always liked Blackhawks boots, like these
feel like a tennis shoe and wore them for over a year in the desert with no problems, might not be too bad for work, and I think they might make a steel toe version too.
