Shoes have become another Chinese scam. What's the lifetime of a branded trainer today? Mileage? How long does a Nike or otherwise trainer made in China last today? How many times around the track can you wear it?
What went wrong? I am sure you can pay x3 that price and buy better. Shoes have become a conspiracy? The lifetime lasts?
Give me a pair of shoes and I will wear a hole right through the part where the front arch of your foot hits the ground. Took about a year when I used to work 70 hours a week and was walking around 12 hours a night.
Shoe size 15 club stand up.
Also not all feet are the same. Whoever started mass producing shoes, was it china or england? Obviously had some square stubby feet.
Having triangle feet is the worst, and when I was a child my mother would make me always wear a shoe that was one size to small because she didnt understand my feet were shaped differently. God bless that woman.
China? They're getting even worse. I went to buy some trainers, I needed another pair, my last pair lasted all of a year, walking a dog, and they got a hole in them. Shoe broke from sole because of hiking.
Anyhow I went to buy the next pair, and I was horrified. The shoes they're selling break just by looking at them. They're broken after walking a few blocks. They're made of fabric. Nike are calling them breathable shoes. The rain, your feet get soaked. WTF? Pure con.
These ECO shoes were everywhere. Pages of these breathable permeable shoes. It's the next freaking con. How to break shoe even quicker and in 5 minutes. As the classic leather trainers have become more expensive. They're still made in China, it means there's a hole in the sole in a year.
I replaced with some addidas trainers. But they were cheap nice fashionable. Tennis shoes. Just standard court stuff, using for local walks, shopping, and indoor biking, biking. I also bought another pair of designers. These look cool, for clothing, like you want blue if you wear blue. I had designers previously expensive. Fell apart the minute I baby sat a family member's dog. Literally walked it around a few off track fields for the week I dog sat. Right away, hole from sole, to shoe.
Neither new pair purchased would survive a day of contact sports or hiking.
Like the increasing amounts of stupid shoes. From these big dumb air, so comfortable they fall apart when you hike. Or this new permeable, I call them ECO shoes, made of fabric, or crap.
I always growing up had classics, leather, no frills, just logo, they'd last 5 years on average. Today it seems most aren't lasting the year.
oh yeah those are sandals, eh.. There's also something too I saw where touching your feet to the ground.. barefoot.. it transfers energy or something. lol.
My big toe started hurting and I looked at my foot and came to the same conclusion.....so I went up one size and went to extra wide.....that's all I could do. I met a lot of people getting an operation on their toe for this and I guess the foot doctors are mum about just buying a bigger shoe....
Barefoot wide toebox shoes will change your life dudes. And there is super affordable ones on amazon for under $40. I only wear these and crocs style wide toe box, 0 heel drop also. Thats whats important. The heels in the shoes fucks our postures up. Because of wear and tear on the rubber as we ware them down.
They're kind of rigid in the middle but still flexible. Have extra arch but when you wear them, shapes to your foot.
Before that, tried every insole on the racks.. green spenco were not bad with some kind of arch. One time went to a foot doctor.. put foot in really soft foam for shape of foot. Get rigid insoles and when in shoe, foot would go a bit wider on the sides than the insole and they were bad. This rigid is bad. So scrapped them, like same day. They cost a few hundred too.
Steel toed shoes.. really hard time trying to find 4E wide. Ordered from states.. get them.. they're like these air monarch with the shape. Put in your sole type. But just walking around it's like feeling flat footed. Can't walk around with those shoes very long. Got these fuckin 4E wide steel toed frankenstein boots with yoursole insoles in them and can walk around more but they're like really heavy. Steel toed boots there.. fuck that. The air monarch with the yoursole, can run around all day at work in this warehouse. Before those insoles, almost couldn't work.
Yea I used to use the air monarch also, They are super extra wide.....But the whitin brand barefoot shoe fits my feet better. Essentially they are a more rigid sock for the foot. And are super dooper wide.

I don't know.. it seems like the "shape" it fucks up your feet. Fits in with everything else they do to us. lol.
I think they're just made worse. Made to exploit now. Made of crap. Not designed for sport, wear and tear. Just designed to take your money
I have a pair of 13 year old Adidas and they still look great. Wtf happened to the manufacturing process? Why are shoes absolute shit?

Adidas still sells leather upper indoor sala shoes. I think that's what classifies the shoes that I own. I'd recommend looking for those.

This is why people went for Birkenstocks.
