i've been wearing nike trainers most of my life because there's an outlet store near me where all the mismade or "out of date" or whatever nikes get sent. the pair i have now has lasted me 7+ years of daily wear and i got them for £20. if you can find a decent outlet store they can be really helpful for this sort of thing

That's what I do now and just buy as many that will fit me and keep a stock. It would just be nice if i didn't have to hunt around in outlets for an ever decreasing stock of old style trainers tho
