Default boots

I have some question about hunting boots. I seen a pair of hunting boots at wally world, I think they were Survivors, they had 1000 grain of Thinsulate and were waterproof but didnt have Gortex. I've seen other boots at other stores that didnt have as much Thinsulate probably around 200-600 grain, but alot of these boots had Gortex. Which would be better to go for? Is there any difference between the different grains of Thinsulate, as in how warm do they keep your feet? I know that the more grains of Thinsulate the warmer your feet will be.

The boots I use now are a pair of military boots my brother gave me and they dont have any Thinsulate or Gortex in them, and my feet froze last weekend. Should I keep using these or should I look at other boots? Any other information you can provide will be great too.
