What Clay & Art said. Any good boot will do, as long as it meets your needs for warmth, comfort, and staying dry. The advantage to NOT buying camo is that you can also wear them casually without being out of the ordinary. The only advantage to buying camo is just as an instantly-recognizable marker for your own self, that "ok, these are my hunting boots; therefore I will wash them and store them in a plastic bag until the hunt to keep household scents off of them" - just a simple way to help with visual organization of your stuff.

But even with turkeys, I really don't think camo boots are necessary or even helpful - your feet are down in the ground & grass, and a little brown or black (preferably brown) just looks like a rock or clump of grass. Main thing is to camo your face, hands, and upper & lower body. Doesn't hurt to camo your gun too, although I don't think this is too necessary since to a turkey it just looks like a horizontal limb or stick, I would think.
