I say get whatever is comfortable at the least expensive price you have to pay for them. Personally I have 4 pair I love to wear at any time. I have some Dingo cowboy boots with the oil resistant work sole, some 5.11 tactical side zip boots, some EMT ankle high boots and some Sears brand DieHard duty boots. I like all of them for various reasons and usually carry three pair with me all the time and swap out what I wear. I prefer the two black pair most often just because my other color beige/camel shows dirt and grease marks too easily. So to really answer your question, my suggestion would be to get at least two pair of boots, prefer black mid-ankle hiking style boots. JM2C

I liked my Caterpillars the best. I had a pair of Wolverines, but they didn't seem to last long. I thought I would try a pair of Dickies this time, but they are tough! Can't seem to break them in! Kill my feet.
I think next time I might try Carhartt boots. A friend of mine really likes his. If I don't like those, I'll be going back to the Cat's.
In cast you are wondering, I've been trying different brands to see if I could actually find something better than the Cat's.

I have a pair made by Converse. They have a composite toe, zip side, and feel like skate shoes.
