I am fairly certain I walk more than you, but if I don't, then you walk a whole hell of a lot. Well-made shoes (and these tend to be more expensive) do not give at the seams, do not have soles that wear out as quickly and quite simply, last longer. I do the same things in my cheap shoes that I do in my expensive ones and there is a significant difference. Just like there is a significant difference between an expensive tv and a cheap one or an expensive toaster and a cheap one. Cheap things are made cheaply.

I will note as unannoyingly as possible that your shoe example does not necessarily carry over to women's shoes. Super expensive luxury brands are no more likely to last a long time. Because women's shoes are made of ticky tack, sparkle, paper and air. There are exceptions in the "practical shoe" world, but the Jimmy Choos of the world are no more likely to last than the Nine Wests. Doesn't mean the Jimmy Choos aren't more stylish though.

And now I will annoyingly add that my best walking shoes are a $20 pair of Reef flip flops. Cause I can.
