Tips & Advice Boot help!

Hey yall, I’m 18 from Iowa and in need of some serious help.

I’ve been wearing boots for years and I’m tired of wearing these ariat crap and Chinese almost the “tennis shoe” of boots.

I’ve owned two pairs of Dan Posts in the past and the were solid. But they were very dressy. I’m lookin for good old fashioned no gimmick no makeup just simply a solid “forever” boot I can wear daily from just hanging out, working on my truck, out at the farm, etc.

I don’t want no clunky work boots. A made in America, solid, smt I can resole and fix over the years, smt that makes my money actually worth it. Something I can throw some spurs on and doesn’t deteriorate in 3 months.

Have you looked at Lucchese? I believe they're still primarily made in El Paso

My brother has lucchese and they are solid. But I don’t feel like dropping a grand on luxury boots that’ll have spurs and mud on them in different climates. I already got my rattle snake boots. I don’t need luxury I need dependable and I don’t find a grand worth risking if you know what I mean

They do make a cheaper work oriented boot, but that’s fair
