The boots you are referring to are the Work America "Wellington," which are different from the ones I own. The Wellington's have a more modern look with steel toes and a Good Year welt that goes around the entire boot. The examples below are the ones that I feel are more desirable and are identical to Red Wing 2268's, but without steel toes.
Surprisingly, they still sell for a decently low price at auction. Get 'em while you can.
This is my pair that haven't aged much from this old photo since I don't get to wear my boot as often as I'd like being in uniform most of the time.
