How long do very light shoes last? (Read 903 times)

ERG


    It seems the answer to this question depends on what you are willing to put up with and how you run.  I have one spot on my shoes (out sole) that wears out entirely too soon, and I end up replacing them before 300 miles ( the rest of the shoe seems fine). When I have money to replace them quickly, I tend to splurge a bit.

     

    Different surfaces will cause a lightweight shoe to wear more than others, too. Are you using them to train on asphalt? Concrete? A rubber track? Gravel? Bark? Bark might get them dirty, but they last a long time that way...not so much on gravel or asphalt.
