Zamberlan if you want leather. Spend the cash, look after them and they will last a very very long time. I am on my second pair in 25 years.

Inov8 Roclite Pro if you do not want leather. They are a toughest lightweight (non-mountaineering) waterproof, walking boots I know of.

I do not rate North Face much and Timberland are not a proper outdoor brand.
