Don't know how good these are, but they meet your $ requirements:

Maybe check EBay, too.

Those are exactly the boot I just bought. Mine however, were felt soles and on sale. The price is what attracted me, along with the fact that Washington hasn't yet outlawed felt soles. When the time comes to convert, I'll take my boots to a cobbler and have the felt removed and have stealth lugs attached. Any good shoe cobbler can do what it takes to convert your favorite boots. Just a thought. Also, Korkers has a shoe-over sandal type strap on model that may do just what you need, once the felt has been removed.
