I recently bought a good pair of hiking boots - Lowa Renegade mids, to be precise - and as well as being supremely sturdy and looking pretty smart, they are the most comfortable things i have ever worn on my feet. They sort of grip my feet tightly enough to feel really snug, but not so tightly that they pinch. They'll probably be too hot in the summer, but until then, i'll be wearing them all the time.
