[Request] Shoes that last longer than 5 months for people who actually work physical jobs?
Sooo, I used to just wear Nike Air Max 95's to work and also use it as my every day shoe after work. I now have a much more physical job, and I frequently walk on railroad tracks and the big rocks around them. I then went from Nike to wearing Brooke's. Those lasted fine until I wore them at work, and then lasted only a couple of months. I then got my most recent shoe, waterproof On Cloud 5's. Those lasted maybe 4-5 months.
My job is physical, I am frequently in water on floors (hence, the waterproof for the On shoes), and am also standing & spraying chemicals at work a lot of the day, so that all puts serious wear on my shoes. Is there any brand/type that can sustain all of this? I am tired of blowing $170 for shoes that only last a little while.
