June 2, 20179 yr Budget?! That sounds restricting! If I need or want a pair of shoes, I buy them. You can't plan these things though. Sometimes when I'm walking by the shoe dept., a pair just calls out to me! :angrybird5:
June 2, 20179 yr Author $0-? If I need shoes I buy some. What does the word need mean though? Very loose interpretation or very literal interpretation. See I need shoes but I don't need shoes if you get what I'm saying.
June 2, 20179 yr $0.00 If I need a new pair of shoes, I buy them. Definitely don't buy on an annual basis. Me too. But on average, I buy a pair of new running shoes every year (about $70-$90). I also get a new pair or two of dress/casual shoes, which I normally buy on Ebay. I have pretty expensive taste, but get significant discounts....$400-$500 shoes sometimes for $50-$75 or so. So I spend maybe a couple hundred $'s a year on shoes. And every time I buy a pair, I typically get rid of a pair. I normally have a rotation of roughly 8 or 9 dress shoes, a couple pair of gym shoes, and a couple pair of real casual shoes in my closet.

I can see needing new running shoes annually if you're a consistent runner. You need to buy new dress shoes annually though? How much wear and tear do you put on those things?
June 2, 20179 yr I probably buy three new pair of workout shoes a year. Not that I am anything special but I spend six days a week doing some type of exercise and I wear the shoes out pretty quick. And I would say for every workout pair of shoes I buy another pair of shoes to either go out in or wear around the house. I love me a good pair of house shoes.
June 2, 20179 yr I can see needing new running shoes annually if you're a consistent runner. You need to buy new dress shoes annually though? How much wear and tear do you put on those things? It's not really annually, and not always because of wear and tear. Sometimes my taste changes or sometimes I just want something new. I've got some shoes I've had for years and will pay to have repaired and maybe never get rid of, and some I really liked a lot to start, but then fell out of love with over time whether it's style or comfort. What can I say, I'm fickle. But I don't plan on making shoe purchases, they kind of just pop up spontaneously.

For me after about three months of heavy use a pair of running shoes is shot and needs to be replaced.
