    I know I’m kinda odd here because I’ve been accustomed to work boots as daily shoes. Partly because I live in a place where everywhere is muddy wet and covered in manure. Even then i don’t understand how people find sneakers comfortable. They are ridiculously tight you feel like you’re walking on carpet all the time and you have to make sure your only stepping on the dryest cleanest perfect ground you can find. The lack of durability just makes me question even further why bother.

      Nah, you’re not odd - same thing happened to me. I grabbed a pair of work boots one day and kept wearing them since they didn’t fall apart, I guess. Just two days ago I was looking at a pair somewhat dumbfounded and remarked that they’re still around.

      Although I have to say, my lifestyle also changed. I moved out of the city, so my style and requirements for footwear probably also changed, come to think about it.
