I really like the Russell PH series. These can be ordered with the classic crepe soles or the Vibram airlight that has a little more grip but is still quiet. They have the ultimate stalking shoe with only a bullhide sole but not so good in the rocky areas of West Texas or for the Koppes in Africa. If you go with a cloth shoe might take a look at the Turtle Skin gators which can turn most thorns with the added bonus of being snake proof. If I bring two pairs of shoes the second is either a Merrell Moab mid or some updated tactical desert boots.
The Turtle skin is not the quietest but are ok under long pants if you need to be quieter.
https://turtleskin.com/default/outdoor-snake-protection.html One model of the Russell PH and their turkey boots or thorn/snake proof models have Turtle shin under canvas or leather, I have the Turkey boot and they are quiet comfortable and only hot when the temperatures are at 90+ degrees but any boot would be hot then. For a quieter gator several safari oriented stores have canvas ones mostly to keep seeds and burs out of your shoes.
