Footwear off the Bike

I am happy to say I am still training. What keeps me going is the fact that I know this will all pay off in the Spring. I want to be better... blah blah blah. I just mean to say it seems tougher some days than most to get on the saddle.

Anyway, I want these shoes. I'm not sure which I exactly want. They will last for years, so I have to see which I really want to spend my money on.

Bean Boots by L.L.Bean®, Gumshoe

or

 Bean Boots by L.L.Bean®, Men's 6"

  

I need something for the winter having gone through the past four without any type of water/weather proof shoes. 

I don't suppose anyone will have any suggestions?
