These are my daily walkers, BMX riders, rainy day shoes, and mechanic work shoes. Left shoe not pictured, but I’m sure you get the idea…

Yes I do have a few much nicer pairs of shoes for nice or important occasions, but I’d rather fully wear out one pair of shoes at a time.

So, what’s your worn out shoes looking like?

    Ooo ooo I love good work boots!

    I bought these in 2015 for work. I left that job in 2020, and I wore these like three times since. Pulled them out this winter for my son to wear as the fit him right now, (he’s growing and blowing through shoes).

    How bloody happy I am that after ten years, they are still holding up! You can see some of the leather is wearing, but they’re soaked on the outside in these photos, bone dry in the inside.

    Fuck inflation though, I paid $120 for these back then, the same boots, I looked them up, today, are $230. Wild. No way I can buy these kind ever again, I’m so happy they have lived so long my son is now getting life out of them! Will definitely be getting these repaired when the time comes!
