Schwalbe delta cruiser might be worth a look. More of a road tyre - might take mild trails.

I think your tyre choices are limited by what RIM your wheel has.

I had ordered (ISO/ETRTO 622) Schwalbe Range Cruiser from BOTS online store, but they could not deliver for some reason. Since I couldn't wait, I got a heavier but more puncture resistant Specialized Infinity instead from the BOTS physical retail store instead.

I'd also checked a lighter Vittoria at Wheelsports, but dropped it since it looked a little vulnerable. I'd been recommended Panaracer Paselas, but didn't get to see one. All of these are commuter/ touring tyres, which I read as 'good enough for long rides on mostly good roads, and the occasional loose tarmac that would otherwise shred a cheaper tyre'.

Lots of choices. Comes down to the wheel rim and price.
