Another repost:

So, the cementing on my pair of Bushacre 2s (dark brown) finally gave out.

I'm interested in finding a similar pair that will last more than a couple years: I liked the shape, the color, the style of the leather, the relative stiffness/structure of the leather, etc. It doesn't need to be identical, and I'm open to going in a slightly different direction, but something that basically serves the same purpose.

Advice on a Goodyear/Blake-stitched pair with a grippy sole that won't break the bank? I'd prefer to avoid suede because I deal with significant snow in the winter (and because I've already got a pair of Loake Kemptons). The Red Wing Weekenders seem pretty close, but I've heard some middling things, so I'm not sure what to think there.

CDB's are nice, have you seen the Bushacres? The sole is rubber, and would be ideal for slippery conditions. You can also sign up for a 20% off coupon for any shoe purchase off of Amazon.

The Bushacre's sole supposedly isn't as comfortable as the crepe sole on the CDB, and I can believe that. Keep that in mind while you consider.

If I were in your position, I'd wait for something like the Georgia Giant boot sale that /u/sharpic mentioned. I got the boots for $50 shipped, and they're wonderful in person. Full grain leather at that price was too good to pass up, but they're out of stock now. A similar sale may happen so it'd be good to keep an eye out.

If you're determined to buy, I'd check these out in order:

Chippewa's. You can get these at around $80 shipped with the 20% off Amazon coupon. Good shoe, vibram sole, good leather, good reviews. Search MFA if you want more info.
Thorogood's. Cost more, different look; depends on what you like. Good reviews, good leather, check MFA for more info.
People also swear by Bean Boots. Check out Jdbee's write up on them, it's really neat.
I'd also suggest Ll Bean's Katahdins, Red Wing Iron Rangers, Red Wing Beckmans, and others. Those get pricier though, and it seems that you're looking for the best bang for your buck at under $100. So I'd check out the ones I listed.

I've already mentioned getting a pair of Red Wings for $67, and the Georgia boots for $50. I also was able to buy some Eastland Lumber Up boots from American Eagle for $50. All of those purchases were made when a good deal popped up. I was in the market for boots, but I waited until a bargain came up to pull the trigger. Patience pays off.

If winter gets here and you haven't found a deal, the Amazon boots should stay at the same price and you could go with one of those. You can also browse around other places and see if there's anything you like. Try for full-grain leather whenever possible. Genuine leather =/= good leather: it's crap.

I bought those. Same as the Clark's Original Desert boot except this has a rubber sole rather than a crepe sole. Almost half the price too...Dark brown was the color I got which looks like Beeswax on the original desert boots.
