Only 2x more expensive maybe but they will last x10/x20 years longer.

Not anymore. They are now using poor rubber for soles that will fall off in 4-5 years.

Good Year Welt boots are repairable, and re-sole-able.

The one on the right is completely unrepairable, and the sole is molded and impossible to replace.

Change brands, there are still good ones out there. Or buy vintage.
