Georgia Boot Company has a lot of decent offerings in the $100-$175 range. I've had a few pairs and they hold up well. Carhart also has some pretty decent boots as well.
I would have to agree. After spending a lot of time in boots i can tell you that is one thing you need to drop some coin on. I spent 250 on a pair of boots and never looked back. Still have a brand new pair of boots from walmart that would make better black smoke clouds than actually wearing. The cheapest I would go would be Merrell.
