I still like my Ariat Performers the best.  The soles do not hang up in the
stirrups, and although they are not the world's more comfy hiking boots, I
have still managed to hike quite a distance in them while leading my horse
down a steep hill or whatever.  Another reason I like them is the firm sole,
which saves my feet from becoming numb.
