Shoes that dont wear out and start falling apart after a year?
After buying a $70 pair of Vans at famous footwear and having them literally fall apart after using them as daily walking shoes, I’ve realized the quality of shoes overall has gone down over the last decade or so.
I don’t mind if they cost $100 or more, are there medium-light weight walking shoes that can withstand the horrors of walking on pavement? I remember checking out some Ecco shoes at the mall years ago, didn’t pull the trigger as they were almost $300 but the way the construction was described to me it sounds like those could last 5+ years.
What shoes do you have that you wear almost daily (not during the winter), and have had for almost a year but aren’t falling apart?

I’ve been happy with Merrells
I was looking for this. I bought mine of TY Maxx for stupid little money. I'm not the one caring for shoes a lot, but they still look pretty good in shape. I never thought barefoot shoes to be that sturdy. Unexpected plus side: barefoot shoes seemed to be what my feet needed. But they don't do me a favor to fool anyone me feet are unproportionally large for my body. They kinda look comically Goofy-esque. I still love 'em and they will be my first, but surely not last Merrells!
Mine are comfortable, but after less than a year the lining has holes worn through in several spots.
Came in here to rep for Merrel. Granted, I've only had them for about a year, but the Moab Mid 3 hiking boot is one of the best investments of my life. I needed to buy a pair of insoles for arch support, but after that it's been like walking on clouds. I ride my bike to work and they've held up through snow and torrential downpour. Can't recommend them highly enough
