I’m looking for a pair of long brown boots. I have a pair of Tredstep Donatello’s which are gorgeous and so comfy since they have decided to stop making the backs of my knees and ankles bleed (no pain no gain!) But they are getting ruined wearing them to ride everyday so my plan is to share the work load with another pair of boots – so they are technically an investment ;) The brief; Brown, skinny leg, long boots, pref with laces and slim silhouette like the donatellos – I did order a pair of Brogini gallipolli in brown but then got an email to say they were a 12week wait so they then sent me a pair of roma’s and I wasn’t that impressed for £150 so going to send them back. So the hunt continues! They need to be good quality and pref no more than £200 unless they are really special! I have considered bromonts and would rather not at the moment!

I have a HKM pair for everyday cost just over £100 zipped up the back very comfortable have had very hard use for nearly two years and have stood up to it well.
 
I have the Ariat contour, very slim, very comfy and very smart but £300+...... I had their heritage field boot which comes in brown and is also lovely and circa £200. I live in Ariats as the footbed is so supportive!
 
I have the de Niro caprice in brown, over your budget but totally worth it, super soft & comfy & very good fit.... I wear them for everyday riding & they stand to it well, although I clean them a lot!
