I saw various articles saying you should get new shoes every 300-500ish miles, but I’m skeptical if they just want you to spend more money by saying that. Do you follow this advice, or do you put more miles on your shoes than this? Do you think 1000 miles on a pair of shoes would be too much?
Edit: Thanks for the feedback everyone. I’ve probably run a few shoes close to 1000 miles without injury, but perhaps I should be more careful as I age.
Depends on the shoe, but I rarely get more than 3-500 miles. Just tossed a pair with only 3:16 on them, but they were worn down on the heel, and had started to make me excessive fatigue after even short runs. I got 500 from a pair of Hoka bondi 7’s. I’m pretty hard on shoes, I have an aggressive wear pattern due to a shorter leg. I try to compensate by buying shoes on sale and rotating them as much as possible. But your milage may totally vary. But replace em when you think you need to, many ultra runners get 1k +
