Looking for some opinions of hiking shoes. Any out doorsy people here?

Ok, ‘bout sick and tired of the “fall apart, Walmart” footwear. Fine for everyday walking around but out here in our mountains they just won’t pass the acid test. Yeah yeah, I know, you get what you pay for, so I’m in the market for a decent shoe I can dedicate for this kind of use. Those who know about this activity know what shoes like this need to be so I wont bother telling my requirements. I’m aware I can go online myself and find things. I am looking for some actual recommendations from people who have used the shoes and will know some decent brand names or companies just to get me going in a direction.
Thank you and have a great day :)
