    Yeah six months ago I spent $130 on a nice pair of runners from REI that I literally only use as walking shoes for my evening walks 3x/week and they are already falling apart. Pathetic! Next time I will shell out for trail runners, hopefully they are more durable.

      https://www.somfootwear.com/ I’m not sure what type of running shoe you prefer, but these are a minimalist shoes made in Colorado. My first pair are in excellent condition after two years. I like them so much I bought a second pair just for non running activities. When the soles finally wear out they will re-sole for 50$ plus shipping.
