Where can I get a decent CV boot, that won't rip in a couple months?

It seems to me as if the cv boots don't last no longer then 5 months to a year anymore, with the weather changes from hot to cold my cv boot does not last. Does anyone know where I can purchase a stronger, long lasting cv boot besides the dealer or aftermarket cheap stuff?
