Check out the Marlin White boots. Super Light. Do not rub against legs and cause rash, comfortable sole. I've worn them for entire fishing trips where I've been on my feet non stop and no complaints. Reasonably priced as well. Assuming you mean fishing boots.....

Viking deck boots is the way to go.. Sooo light and great grip on the boat along with them being very soft on the feet.. That's all i wear.. Fold the tops over in the summer... Cant go wrong with them.. Got my first pair 2 years ago and ill never buy a different set..
You will really like them.. its like floating on air.. the boot is so light you don't even notice your wearing them

I see Fisherman's Headquarters in Ship Bottom sells them but not anybody else that I can find. Hate ordering stuff like boots without trying them on first, guess I'll have to take a ride down there.

I can let you in on another spot that sells them.. Its a NS so shoot me a PM and i will give you the info..
If you are looking to buy a set of them id say go for it.. I have yet to have an issue with mine.. Very light.. so light it feels like your going bear foot, very comfy and when i am working i am on the feet all day and i have had other sets that my feet would hurt by the end of the day... With these my feet have yet to hurt after a long day on the boat.. Also they have great grip.. No slipping or sliding.. Best part is in the summer i wear them working as well... Just fold them in half and its awesome.. Since they are so light your feet dont sweat to death and if they get wet they dry super quick..

Rugged sharks are really comfortable but aren't good for people that work on boats. They don't stand up to the abuse well. But they are really comfortable. Extra tough also makes a really nice product. A bit more expensive but nice for people who fish on aluminum boats and in the winter months. The sharks are around 75 a pair and I think the xtra toughs are around 125
