Basic Boot Recommendations

I’m enjoying my first real winter and am in need of my first pair of boots. Mainly looking at Allen Edmonds because I have a return credit there. I’m still developing a sense of personal style so I’m looking for something versatile.

I don't have full range of motion in my left arm so I tend to either tie shoes loosely then slip them on or buy slip on shoes. I mention this because I was looking at combat-style boots but it seems like my system might not work with those?

The Higgins Mill I was eyeing seem to have a model with a zipper but I wonder if that screws with the waterproofing. I think chelsea and chukka boots are also popular choices around here.
