Nobody can suggest a comfortable boot, they can suggest what fits their feet but the same boot they wear may hurt you're feet like hell. Try on many pairs and buy what fits properly.

I have burton rulers, and an old pair of vans, but it's not the brand it's how the boot fits. Somebody may suggest 32's, personally they don't fit my feet right at all.

Very true... Try on many to find what works for you. I'm a big Vans guy though. On my third pair in 8 years. Currently riding the Andreas Wiig model but that may be a bit stiffer than your looking for. Check em out
