I just use cheap boots. Pic shows my extremely used vs my new pair.
A friend suggested I switch to these cadet marching boots a couple years ago. They only cost $100. The used ones have also been completely soaked in honey (high acid) many times as well as being used as an every day shoe and used for multi day hiking, they still retained their water proofing. Honey eats most fabrics. I think they're 3 years old and I'm still using them, once I feel they are done i'll switch to my new pair. No point spending hundreds of dollars on a purpose shoe then these things do literally everything without an issue and cost $100. They're Trailblazer cadet boots.
