Rose anvil is a great channel for deconstructing boots and putting them to the test. This video he does several pairs of duck boots.

Watch the rose anvil video on them though, they don’t hold up to the standard of the bean boots

Llbean bean boots still made in USA still water tight. Can be resoled for around $40 when they wear out. Make sure they are the USA made boots.

I’ve had the opposite experience. Though, my arcteryx products are older, I still find their customer service to be responsive. However, some of their new “designer” products are hideous which is a shame

The hiking socks are sold out at the moment. I actually tried to buy a bunch the other day. They had the ankle socks though

Eddie Bauer might not be what it used to be but you still get a lot of parka for the money. Real, thick down, water resistant exterior lots of pockets.

Barbour makes some high quality BIFL jackets.

The buckle design has caused the strap to wear on mine and it's fraying but they sent me a replacement.

Yep waxed cotton cattleman’s coats; the brand is driza-bone.
RM Williams boots. They’re expensive but I’ve had a few pairs that have lasted a decade plus, including ones I actually used for riding horses, so exposed to sweat, mud, salt, fire pits, blazing hot and freezing days, rain, snow, etc.
Akubra hats.
Bellroy leather goods.
Solidteknics steel kitchenware.

Reply to Wanting to upgrade hair clippers for self cut by StarrkC
I use a waterproof beard trimmer for this. I buzz my head every other day while dry before a shower, but the convenience of not having to brush and lube up or change the blades is awesome.. I also found it much easier to accidentally scrape areas of my neck or my head up when I was using Wahl clippers.

edit - Don't mean to say the belts are not quality, they very much are. Just wanted to respond to OP's comment about the wallet.

I have 2 belts and the wallet and can attest to the wallet's quality. I get a lot of questions about it whenever someone notices.
