I wear 3 different types of boots, 2 motorcycle specific
The ones I wore today and am actually standing in right now are Alpinestars waterproof touring boots. I consider them a middle of the road boot price wise. They fit well, comfortable enough, supposed to be waterproof. When it gets warm they are warm to wear. When its cold they keep your feet warm. The zippers are on the outside but only come half way up. The velcro top wraps around the rest of the top. This makes them easy to get in and out of. It also makes the top adjustable for different size calves. We I tour or if its cold I choose these.

The second pair is made by Vega called a Nitro. It is thinner than the Alpinestar boot and the one I wear in summer or when riding in a more sporting manner. Zippers and velcro up the inside and the outside. Use one or both. Being fatter than I should be I tend to zip up the inside cause its easier to reach when sitting down. These I would rate as an inexpensive boot.

The 3rd boot is not motorcycle specific, but a black lace front over the ankle work boot made by Brahma. Waterproof, but when Im wearing these it's hot out and I'm probably also wearing a vented jacket, vented gloves and jeans so my feet are still going to get wet from water running down my body and legs lol. Not as much protection as a motorcycle specific boot, but better than a pair of flip flops I'm sure. These are very inexpensive.
