Can anyone help me hunt down a unicorn? I fly for a living and prefer boots for work. I’ve been wearing Ariat ropers since before covid and it’s time to replace. They’re great but the 10” shaft gives me grief with my pants riding up. So I’m looking for something with a 11” or  12” shaft. It can’t have a steel shank and it can’t have a nailed heel, just to avoid talking them off at security. Something like these Durango’s but with a Vibram-type sole. Does such a beast exist?

the only thing I can find are these work boots but the design is a little lame

I’ve come to conclusion that 20k steps in 8 hours will kill your feet no matter the boot. 
 
My choices next year are pain or tennis shoes.
