I think KYB makes some, check their site.
However, I have heard from multiple people (off-road racers mostly) that dust boots are bad becuase they trap in moisture and have no way to wick it out, so you end up with rust and mold in there :/ Food for thought before you make a final choice. I think 99% of people here don't have dust boots, including those with $1000+ suspension setups.
