Have taken me through more rough terrain, with heavier loads, under more difficult conditions than any single pair of "hiking boots" I've owned in almost thirty years, with minimal blisters or foot pain. So, I think a lot of good footwear comes with finding the right combinations for your feet and activities, instead of worrying too much about the rocket science applications of footwear creation.
And, unless the terrain is just impossibly harsh, a set of sturdy light hikers (sans Gore-Tex) are more than suitable.
