Yep this, it can be coyote or Chair Force-- just don't blouse or tuck. They're great for any terrain. Might be ugly to you, but these are some comfortable very solid boots. Got these issued to me in miltary school and I still wear them 7 years later. There's a ton of quality combat boots out there. Tactical Research, Garmont, Danner, and Oakley all make a quality boot.

I think people will contradict this because these might seem like the most tryhard
but since this is real life and real things are taken into consideration, after owning a dozen 'real leather' boots and wearing them often enough, leather is the tryhard way to go.

Do you need to look like a reenactor or can you go with something comfortable, light, practical? Danner makes excellent leather boots, but demand is for their tactical/military boots to look more like this because it's more functional. Rule of thumb, if function is sacrificed for aesthetic, you're going down tryhard way

>protect your feet
All of them
>let it breathe
Leather is "breathable" in that it absorbs water to a degree. Or you get jungle/canvas/etc. boots. I always suggest austrian canvas boots.
>don't require you to wear socks
So basically this is all up to how tough your feet are. Soft leather lining will help. If you want to be disgusting like that you best get pure leather shoes - leather in contact with skin will not smell quite as bad as fabric. I know that there was a period when southern european armies (italy, spain, maybe france) wore leather boots without socks, but this practice was generally considered inferior by more northern armies, even for hot weather. Also, modern leather contains things you don't want touching your skin. Search for veg tan leather if you're so inclined on this. (Also, I've worn my soft leather lined boots without socks a few times and it feels disgusting and makes a pumping sound as if I was constantly farting. Not recommending it.)

Dude, what do you expect to be doing that you fear trench foot? It doesn't happen in normal circumstances. If your feet are super sweaty or something, you can change socks, that will take some moisture out of the boot. (Actually pls don't. Imagine the smell...) Back in the days, it was often suggested you wear two pairs alternatingly so each pair can dry out completely inbetween uses. Also fucking wear socks, seriously. It's unhygienic and may cause superficial injury to your foot if you don't - which is actually a risk factor for trench foot.
