What is a good quality boot that will hold up in the long run? I don't care for speed lacing or any other gimmick all that I am interested in is a comfortable boot that will withstand the test of time. I was looking at VANS boots how are they? Thank you for your time.

I'm a fan of Northwave, absolutely hated my 32's. But just like every foot is different every boot brand will fit differently and you may have to buy a few pairs before you find the ones for you.
For the record I have wider feet and Northwaves seem to work good, the 32's seemed like they were meant for skinny feet.
I don't know nothing about the Vans boots, seems like there good?

I have found the flow boots to be very comfy for my wide feet. I'm 12w in shoes and the feel food for my feet. Just wish I could find boots that were about an inch shorter on the calf.
