How do you buy the next pair of shoes?

I'm very happy with the expensive shoes that I bought at Run4It. Is there any reason not to look out for the same shoe in the summer sales when they come, and buy it half price then? Any reason to change to a different model if it is working well?

No, none. You will get them cheaper online for years to come hopefully 😀

I am struggling to buy my fave shoe now as it's so out of date, but I do have a new pair, and one hardly worn, plus an ancient pair. Enough to keep me going for many miles, and the last pair was only £28.99. They were really expensive originally 😀

Not at all, go for it.

Similar to misswobble, I had a pair of New Balance shoes that suited me just perfectly and I really wish I had got an extra pair as I can't find them anywhere now.

Loved my NB 860V3 trainers - they've been updated, now on version 7 and not nearly as comfy as the originals were...xx

Dunder. I leave no stone unturned to find the darned shoes 😀 You have to be dogged, it takes practice 😀 It takes a lot to keep a woman from a pair of shoes she wants 😎
