I live in West Tennessee. Temperature some time to get down into the teens and it does get wet and muddy. I walk the dog everyday. Anybody recommend a good brand or style of boots for under $100?
 
Sorel Caribou is hands down my first choice. I've been relying on them for years ever since I lived in Colorado.

I have a pair of Sorel that I use when I go ice fishing. I also have a pair of Muck that I wear for everything else. The mucks are lite and I enjoy wearing them.

+1 on the muck boots. I've got a pair that are the perfect, for me, barn boots. I leave 'em out on the back porch so I don't bring in the mess. Even in the single digits they don't seem to chill my feet when they go on.
 
I carry mail. In Buffalo. Cold/Wet is kinda my thing. Personally right now I've wearing a pair of Rocky Eliminator (https://www.rockyboots.com/rocky-el...fV27538_a_7c1141_a_7c3234_a_7cFQ0081321WI11.5) in full leather, but those are $200+. With nylon they're only $100 https://www.rockyboots.com/rocky-el...=gdfV27538_a_7c1141_a_7c3234_a_7cFQ0080321ME7. But those will need to be waxed regularly.

Neos overshoes - under 100, very good. Slip right over jogging shoes (or other boots, etc), and I've worn them like that for ten hours sub-zero. Shop around there are many styles and prices vary wildly from store to store. https://www.thefirestore.com/store/...ed-N-E-O-S-/?gclid=CNfoj5-0irwCFawRMwodNn4AMA

I also like all of the Merrell winter boots.

If you're going to be in really sloppy conditions, consider a pair of boot gaiters as well: https://www.outdoorresearch.com/en/...codiles-b76dbcdb50233a9ac2503749fd0037a5.html
