I still buy expensive leather hiking boots from Italy. However I do seek out a good price and it's easy with the 'net. Currently wearing Scarpa Activ SL I paid $200 US for. My last pair of One Sport Moraine boots lasted 13 years before becoming too worn for an economical repair.

Yes they're far from light but I've always preferred a boot. Just my 2 cents.
