How long before you wear out a pair of tennis shoes?

Hello dear ersmommy. I don't have a pair of tennis shoes, but I have pairs of casual shoes. Usually I can wear them out in a couple of years or longer, because I don't wear always them. I have a few pairs for a change. That is my secret of lasting them a longer time.

Generally, a year, I think. I also try to walk my dog. When I do well with that, I tend to wear them out in a few months. My dog can walk a lot.

Well since I don't wear shoes unless I go somewhere and I don't go anywhere much, a pair of shoes will last me about 5 years or more. In the summer I tend to wear alot of summer shoes like flops,sandals and stuff and wear the other types of shoes for cooler weather. I love going barefoot.. If I wear shoes they are off as soon as I hit the door. I guess it saves alot of wear and tear on shoes..and saves me money..My husband however gets 2 pairs of shoes and a pair of boots yearly. He works a carpenter.

I have a pair of k swiss that I have been wearing for 7 years. They are still in good shape I guess it's because I usually walk around barefoot all day in the house and rarely ever wear tennis shoes.

It all depends on the type of shoe they are and what I use them for. some of my shoes are very expensive and my other shoes are fairly cheap and I use those for cutting grass or working in the yard. Those don't last long after being washed so many times. My higher priced shoes last about one year.

I normally pitch mine before they wear out because they start to stink. I have what my sister in law refers to as "swamp toes". My poor baby girl has them too. No amount of spray or shoe inserts help. I just have stinky feet.
