I grew up with $20 walmart blenders, and hated anything that required a blender.

Recently bought a ninja and there is no going back. I’ll never use a crappy blender again.

Anything else like that?

    I am curious whether good shoes actually last longer. I buy the cheapest possible shoes, which is around $25 pre skate board shoe, and they typically last a year.

    If more expensive skateboard shoes can last me more than two or three years (wearing every day), I would happy to get them for more.

    Do any one have experience with these shoes? I mainly need them to be weather resistant (don’t absorb water in a rain is enough) and reasonably breathable (so no hiking boots).

      I have never found a skateboard shoe that’s lasted more than a year regardless of price. A solid pair of walking shoes however is very different.

      I’ve always had a pair of these laying around for decades. I use them for walking my husky and they last about two years. They don’t look great but honestly I don’t care how my shoes look when I’m walking my dog.

        Is the bottom layer foam? I find foam tends to soak up water on a rainy day. As I walk to most places I prefer my shoe to not do that.
