My Demonia boots HURT after a few hours. They look so cool though. My husband says his Docs are comfy though.

sounds like you've just not found boots that fit you right, I've had pain wearing many types of shoes untile I've found the size that works be for me,
I got a pair of timberlands that are quite comfortable tho they don't last very long
Yes
My Desert Rat boots are the best boots I have ever had.
It's about boots, it's about socks, it's about insoles.
The Redwing Burnside boots are MIGHTY comfortable just right out of the box. But the soles are on the soft side, they won't last much over 2 years of hard labor. They can be replaced with I think it's the Montana vibram sole for $100; it's compatible but also harder. So...bonus.
It's hard to beat the socks at Buffalo Wool Co! Buffalo wool socks breathe well, and they're tough, too. They wear very very slowly. Don't hold an odor. Have adequate cushion.
When the regular insoles of the boots wear too thin, it's time to switch over to SuperFeet insoles! I get the 'Orange' ones.
That combination should get you some very comfortable, high quality boots.
Food for thought, my military minded friends talk about jungle "Mickies". I think. They say you will hurt & blister breaking them in over a few months, but then it's a very comfortable pair of boots that last a long time. And they're pretty cheap, too. I'll talk to them again & update my post with relevant info.
Yeah, I have some really comfy walking boots (by a brand called Vegetarian Shoes, I think they're made in Italy) and a pair of everyday boots by Superga which are also really comfy. You'll usually need to break boots in - maybe wear them around the house a bit with some thick socks on whilst they get used to your feet.
I have some swedish brand boots that are pretty comfy... Wait, are we talking about rubber boots, Dock Martin's or just boot boots(for booting)? because I never wore the first two, so can't help there.
Military: Danner, then Belleville
Security: Nortiv8 (see Amazon)
Field Service: Skechers Work (no,they aren't boots...just comfortable)
