Lookin for a good pair of boots for the boy-kids 1-3....Had a pair of hitec's last year that didn't last a year...lookin' for something durable and w/ a good price point...looked at the typical spots but no luck...found the same make and model as last year but wont do it again. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

But if they're ages 1-3 you aren't really believing that they'll fit in the same shoes next year?  At that age (unless you're gonna pass them down from kid, age 3, to kid, age 1) nothing fits more than 9-12 months before they've grown out of them. Chuck Taylors may only last one trip but there's nothing sadder than looking at {anything kinda expensive} sitting in the closet, too small after one season of use.
