Ever paid for footwear, besides workshoes/boots ?

I paid $150 for a pair of bike boots, and another time, about $200 for a pair of Tony Lama boots.

Other than those, about 50 bucks.

250 for a pair of motocross boots. Before I had them I would nearly break my toes every time I rode. Now i can't ride with out them. Other then them I don't spend more then 75-80 on foot wear.

I believe in cheap shoes. No matter what you pay, they get crapped up and worn out. Not into labels and I like to have lots of choices, so cheap is the way to go!!! If I pay $50 for a freakin' pair of shoes, that's extravagent to me!! laugh laugh laugh They better do freakin' CHORES at that price!!!

You get what you pay for in shoes. It's not just the label but the quality of the leather, stitching, and how well they fit.

I paid over $200 for a pair of buffalo skinned casual shoes. Extremely well made and very comfortable. I've had them over 10 years and they still look good even after taking them camping and fishing. I had them resoled once. I wish I could give you the name of the maker but they were made in Montana.

Cheap shoes are just that....cheap. They look cheap, they don't fit well, they don't last long, and they make your feet hurt. You don't save much in the long run by buying cheap shoes.
