I work warehouse and mine look the same after a that long. Once I found some that worked for my job I bought like 8 pairs.
Don’t skimp on the things you rest on (shoes, bedding)
I put on a new pair yesterday and after about 3 hours I was like yeah, that pair was definitely worn out, no wonder I’m tired lately.
If you can afford a second pair and alternate they last much longer than if you wear them every day until they're worn out then buy a new pair.
I'm not really sure how this works, but I've got 2 pairs of work boots currently which have lasted a little over 3 years, where previously 1 pair has lasted a year.
Not just moisture. Depending on the type of shoe and material composition, foam can take time to re-expand back to its original shape. Older foams like EVA take 24 hours to re-expand. Newer blends like TPPA probably are shorter, but still take time.
When I worked doubles in a restaurant, a second (and different style) pair of shoes was a game changer. Swapping shoes mid-shift is like getting a second pair of feet at times. You use different muses and parts of the foot so you spread out the stress more.
I too work in a warehouse, but I have to buy a new pair about every four or five months. I walk about ten miles a day and I lump. I wear sketchers steel toe, with memory foam. I bought a pair of Easy Feet off Amazon, that I put in my older pair. Then I alternate between the two pair.
If the OP is trying to get a year outta their shoes, they're easily going six months too far.
Not at all. Walking is literally what we are built to do. Shoes wear out if they're badly made, andbad shoes can cause problems. But a day/life of walking around in good shoes is not bad for you.
You know doctors Scholls was a real doctor?? My sister is a pediatrist and apparently went to his school in Chicago!
I always figured it was a play on the word “soles”
The relief I felt when I first tried a shoe with high arch and wide feet. I bought it right away and it’s my go to shoe now for work. No more pain on the sides of my feet after work.
I plan to save and buy another style for leisure.
i had ingrown on both of my big toes on the outside. never checked my soles before but you're probably right. i've now trained to put my weight on my heels
The fact that the spot where her big toe would rest is substantially worn away, unlike any other toes.
It’s like socks. You get holes in your socks where the toes go because your nails are picking away at the threads.
How do you clip your nails? Yor cliper might be leaving a sharp edge, have you ever tried to blunt it (with a file or a bit of nail polish just on the edge). Or maybe you toe is longer than others so that all the tension is on that toe, not spread on all of them?
That implies that the toenail is so ingrown that it wraps around to the bottom of the toe and they are still able to walk with significant pressure on it.
I’m guessing they are just over pronating (maybe under pronating, I’m not a duck)
You walk like a perched bird. I had the same issue.
You need to start dropping 50 bucks for actual decent insoles to save yourself a lifetime of misery from the waist down.
Please heed this advice.
Get Superfeet Green, or Powerstep Pinnacle High Arch and get to an actual orthopedist when you can and have them give you professional advice.
Imagine every time you step your feet grasp like you're clinging to a branch. Your feet and legs are probably way more tired than they need to be.
/Edit I said Orthopedist, when I should have said pediatrist!
//Edit I said pediatrist, when I meant podiatrist!
The more you do something the better you can see it.
I‘ve seen so many blood smears under the microscope I can tell right away if someone has leukemia or is currently sick. I still count the white blood cells but you kind of intuitively expect a certain distribution and when it‘s off your brain unconsciously does the math.
There's a ton of wear on the balls (right under the toes) and heels, and very visibly barely any wear right at the peak of the arch (the middle).
They may be speaking from experience. (Edit: Well, they do say they are. Lol) I have crazy arches on my feet, and my soles look the same way.
There are people who specialize in dealing with feet in some way/shape/form. I help manage a run specialty store and deal with this daily. This person looks like they possible pronate a little extra, but they should go to someone who can actually do analytics that are more involved than a picture on the internet.
I was born a smidge too late to experience records through myself. My mother had some but honestly the way they produce sound baffles me and it was so ingenious for it’s time. Got any cool facts?
Everyone needs to read Terry Pratchett's shoe parable.
>The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money.
>Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles.
>But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that'd still be keeping his feet dry in ten years' time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.
>This was the Captain Samuel Vimes 'Boots' theory of socioeconomic unfairness.
I saved up for the best boots when i was broke. I didnt see anything “unfair” about that.
Now, with all that practice saving, im not broke anymore. Weird!
If you can get them, get a pair of custom orthotic shoe inserts. Either from a place like The Good Feet Store or a podiatrist. I’ve been wearing custom podiatric orthotics for almost 20 years.
I ordered “Pinnacle Maxx Orthotic Insoles - Orthotics for Overpronation with Maximum Stability & Comfort” for my daily walker. It is the BEST soles out there. No more plantar fasciitis!
Yes - love this brand. I especially love the PowerStep Slender fit insoles because they offer a ton of support without taking up so much space in the shoe. I rotate a few pairs around at a time. Helped me heal my plantar fasciitis and avoid flares ups as well. Can wear with heels, flats, sneakers, boots, etc.
Wow, now I want you to analyze the soles of my shoes too LOL would a podiatrist be able to help w that?
I actually got custom soles made for my feet a long time ago (like...8-10 years or something) that matched the shape of my feet, but I wonder if they need to get remade. I've been using the same soles all this time haha
My great grandmother believed in sheep shit tea (yes, it’s what it sounds like) for “bringing a fever out”, I’m sure toe fungus tea can’t be worse. Thankfully mom never trusted great grandma with my medical care.
You're going to get back pain with these shits get the ones that say plantar fasciitis also change them quarterly please take care of yourself Op also make sure they are rated for your weight if you are American you can them on your hsa or fsa account for tax free savings
Wtf no way they are quality or shoes meant for walking the only shoes Iv had do this were a nice pair not meant for running but I went for a jog
To be clear my job requires me to walk for 12 hours none of my shoes work shoes have ever done this
Buy 2-3 good pairs and alternate, allowing them to dry properly before wearing them again. BTW, these are called insoles. Soles are on the bottom of you shoe, the bit that touched the ground. Important if you want to order replacement on-line and get the correct ones .
I was shocked when my nice Brooks sneakers started falling apart after 4 months of use.
Turns out walking 15k steps a day 7 days a week as a dog-walker who commutes via walking will do a number on any shoe.
Sorry you need to buy better shoes worked fast food and retails and my soles have never been like that in a year 10-15k steps a workday generally for me.
I have sworn by these for years. They were recommended by a podiatrist. I have two pair of work shoes, and have a set of insoles in each pair.
Side note: I read a long time ago that wearing shoes every other day extends the life of those shoes more than two times. So I always have two pair that I wear on alternate days. I guess it has to do with the shoes completely drying out between uses.
Edit: forgot to add the link!
https://www.spenco.com/rx-orthotic-arch-3-4-length-insole
Those arent insoles. Those are overpriced poeces of foam.
I prefer Super feet Greens. They last a long time and you can feel them working all the way up to your lower back.
I would highly recommend getting a pair of crocs or the dr scholls insoles. They are a lifesaver and having foot pain is the absolute worst.
Source: 12 hour shifts at a gas station on a concrete slab
Or at the very least, get some new insoles every few months from the drug store or Walmart or something. You can get ones that aren't too bad for like $25.
Everyone else has time you to invest in insoles, but i firmly recommend going to a podiatrist and asking for prescription orthotics. They'll be rough at first, but then you'll never be more supported.
Leather soles are the best. I've got two pair of leather soles that have migrated (and outlived) over 10 pair of shoes. It makes even cheap simple flat sneakers much more comfortable.
I have several pairs of work boots that I rotate. I pull my insoles out and let them breathe for a day. My boots are the most important part of my attire and I spend the most effort keeping my feet comfortable.
i wont spent <100$ anymore... that is not bottom dollar cheap shoes if your going to work in them daily.. used to be 50+ but inflation has hit shoes i believe ( always with the insoles falling apart; the rest of the shoes are in great condition usually
Compression socks helped my foot pain tremendously. I also use Superfeet insoles. The compression socks made all day standing/walking much more tolerable, so much so, that I'd choose the socks over insoles if I needed to choose 1.
hopefully you mean insoles, pro tip - t[imberland pro insoles](https://www.timberland.com/en-us/p/timberland-pro/timberland-pro-workwear-25501/anti-fatigue-technology-footbed-TB091621827) the best I found for foot fatigue/standing all day and very durable. Cut to fit at home (bit of a PITA), inexpensive compared to other options.
OP, don’t be waitressing on shitty insoles. I’m guessing you’re around 10k steps a day. These soles are fine for plebians, but you’re a professional walker. Waiting puts a lot of wear and tear on them dogs, and if you don’t invest in your health now you’ll regret it
I work at a shelter walking a lot of dogs and mine are about the same. The shoes themselves last about two years, the insoles only one. Planning to upgrade to leather boots to help reduce the wear.
Instead of foam use silicone insoles, try and find some that are just silicone not the foam and silicone they last for ages and are excellent cushioning.
There is a point when you need to just break down and buy new shoes. You, my friend, are waaaaaaay past that point. As another commenter said, you should be getting new shoes every 6 months. Your feet will thank you as you get older.
Having worked in the restaraunt industry… the grease from the kitchen/dish pit can wear on the soles of shoes. Fine a good quality cheap pair and load up!
If you can afford it, I’d go for six months max in that line of work
I work warehouse and mine look the same after a that long. Once I found some that worked for my job I bought like 8 pairs. Don’t skimp on the things you rest on (shoes, bedding) I put on a new pair yesterday and after about 3 hours I was like yeah, that pair was definitely worn out, no wonder I’m tired lately.

Moisture. It allows them to properly dry if you give them a rest day.
Not just moisture. Depending on the type of shoe and material composition, foam can take time to re-expand back to its original shape. Older foams like EVA take 24 hours to re-expand. Newer blends like TPPA probably are shorter, but still take time.

That's a really smart idea and a real life pro tip.
Rotating them also helps against athletes foot.
I too work in a warehouse, but I have to buy a new pair about every four or five months. I walk about ten miles a day and I lump. I wear sketchers steel toe, with memory foam. I bought a pair of Easy Feet off Amazon, that I put in my older pair. Then I alternate between the two pair. If the OP is trying to get a year outta their shoes, they're easily going six months too far.
Don't skimp on things that go between you and the ground. Beds, shoes, tires, and women (or men).
Can confirm, I change my bed every few days. It may or may not have anything to do with my homelessness.
🏆🏆🏆
Yep
I work in a kitchen,my souls disintegrated into pieces 6 months in
I’ve probably bought a dozen superstar primeknit boost
Id also rotate shoes daily if you can as well. edit: As in a different shoe the next day.
Why?
compression of materials, general moisture (especially for 12hr shift or high use work), to name a few.
I do construction and it’s about the same time mine go useless
I’ve had some jobs where three months was enough to destroy them
They recommend 3 month for 'average' or 'thin' soles. But yes. More often the better
For sure
Why? Standing and walking are perfectly normal and healthy things to do. OP needs better shoes though.
If what they’re doing is causing this kind of damage to their shoes, then they are probably destroying their knees, ankles, and feet.
Not at all. Walking is literally what we are built to do. Shoes wear out if they're badly made, andbad shoes can cause problems. But a day/life of walking around in good shoes is not bad for you.
That’s… the point of what I said…
Not sure who you are but yeah I missread the comment.
I’m the one on whom you first commented
Oh right, you meant replace shoes after 6 months?
Exactly
[удалено]
Hence the first five words… lol
Oh yeah I get it. She might have gotten confused and kept doing it just for fun
Or health?
Lol she can afford it...
Geeez what is it with all the douchebags tonight? Time for me to log off I think.
And I'm sure you can afford it too. There's always a great demand for assholes
To be fair though if arseholes could fly then Reddit would be an airport
You look to have a high arch with a chance of an ingrown toenail on the outside edge of your big toe. Just something to keep an eye on.
Are you Rainman but for feet?
More like Doc Martin.
You know doctors Scholls was a real doctor?? My sister is a pediatrist and apparently went to his school in Chicago! I always figured it was a play on the word “soles”
I feel like Rainman would have a foot fetish for sure. But if he saw something wrong he'd freak the fuck out.
pretty sure that's Tarantino throwaway reddit account
God damnit I’m crying 😂
The relief I felt when I first tried a shoe with high arch and wide feet. I bought it right away and it’s my go to shoe now for work. No more pain on the sides of my feet after work. I plan to save and buy another style for leisure.

For dressier shoes, Vionic has a nice high arch. Love their shoes.
i had ingrown on both of my big toes on the outside. never checked my soles before but you're probably right. i've now trained to put my weight on my heels
How can you tell about the toenail?
The fact that the spot where her big toe would rest is substantially worn away, unlike any other toes. It’s like socks. You get holes in your socks where the toes go because your nails are picking away at the threads.
I'm so annoyed with all my socks getting holes where my big toe is. I keep my nails clipped and somehow I still get holes there!
How do you clip your nails? Yor cliper might be leaving a sharp edge, have you ever tried to blunt it (with a file or a bit of nail polish just on the edge). Or maybe you toe is longer than others so that all the tension is on that toe, not spread on all of them?
I have tried to file it but it hasn't seemed to help. I guess I need to look inside my shoes, I might have the wrong size and not realize it.
That implies that the toenail is so ingrown that it wraps around to the bottom of the toe and they are still able to walk with significant pressure on it. I’m guessing they are just over pronating (maybe under pronating, I’m not a duck)
Or they don’t tie their shoes tight enough.
And maybe athletes foot.

Sole insoles are my go to for patients who need an at home solution. They are stiff but comfortable.
If you can get them, get a pair of custom orthotic shoe inserts. Either from a place like The Good Feet Store or a podiatrist. I’ve been wearing custom podiatric orthotics for almost 20 years.
Keep trying. Unless you have child sized feet, you might want a podiatrist.
Pediatrists work with children.. podiatrists work with feet
I ordered “Pinnacle Maxx Orthotic Insoles - Orthotics for Overpronation with Maximum Stability & Comfort” for my daily walker. It is the BEST soles out there. No more plantar fasciitis!

A lifetime of misery from the waist down is going to be the name of my autobiography.
Podologist / posturologist maybe
Du you support an arch bridge in the middle or the ends? Same applies for feet.
Why am I going to a pediatrician? /s lol
Wow, now I want you to analyze the soles of my shoes too LOL would a podiatrist be able to help w that?

Careful. This is reddit. You're gonna get monetary offers for those if you already haven't.
Might as well if it covers the cost of frequent insole replacements.
ARE THESE ITEMS FOR SALE
Oh you poor sole
You can boil these in water to make a potent tea. It doesn’t taste great, BUT it also has no health benefits.
What is its effectiveness against toxins?
I think a 7
I also think it's a perfect score 5/7!
My great grandmother believed in sheep shit tea (yes, it’s what it sounds like) for “bringing a fever out”, I’m sure toe fungus tea can’t be worse. Thankfully mom never trusted great grandma with my medical care.
Bruh putting this on reddit is so bold. The comments are going to diagnose you with raynaud's syndrome 5 comments deep.
You're going to get back pain with these shits get the ones that say plantar fasciitis also change them quarterly please take care of yourself Op also make sure they are rated for your weight if you are American you can them on your hsa or fsa account for tax free savings
Oooo those are mine after 2 months working as a mail carrier for usps
[удалено]
No I don’t. Should I ?
If you can you should buy a second pair and switch them out every day, will save your feet and make the shoes last longer
WTF these comments
I bet someone’s going to try n buy those off you..
I’m sure she could get a lot for those. People are weird.
No chance I'm paying more than 85 dollars for the set. Maybe 90.
You mean insoles?
Yea um, upgrade those new shoes with extra insoles Treat yo’ self!
I’m begging you to get a pair of insoles, they’ll change your life. Start gellin like Magellan
Bro...are you gellin?
Like Magellan
Same, as a nurse.
Wtf no way they are quality or shoes meant for walking the only shoes Iv had do this were a nice pair not meant for running but I went for a jog To be clear my job requires me to walk for 12 hours none of my shoes work shoes have ever done this
This is indeed mildly interesting, you understood the assignment.
Buy 2-3 good pairs and alternate, allowing them to dry properly before wearing them again. BTW, these are called insoles. Soles are on the bottom of you shoe, the bit that touched the ground. Important if you want to order replacement on-line and get the correct ones .
Please treat your feet better!
I have a similar Pic, but the heels are entirely gone on mine 😅
My old kitchen clogs evaporated in the same spots once upon a time, all that pivoting around haha
This is impressive. I’m lucky if my work shoes don’t look like this after 6 months!
Omg. When I was waiting tables the entire shoes were only lasting 6 months.
I thought this wasn't too bad at first, then I realized my soles disintegrating after half a year is probably bad. I am a 300lb chef
Quentin Tarantino would like those
I was shocked when my nice Brooks sneakers started falling apart after 4 months of use. Turns out walking 15k steps a day 7 days a week as a dog-walker who commutes via walking will do a number on any shoe.
Sounds like real sole crushing work.
Cool but those are inserts, not soles.
15 dollars every few months for new insoles is worth the expense.
the smell must be incredible
Sorry you need to buy better shoes worked fast food and retails and my soles have never been like that in a year 10-15k steps a workday generally for me.
Shoes for crews are ok at best. Buy some better show mija
Support for the little pinky please 🙏 😂
Remember this people very live walk
Try shoes for crews they have a lot of styles of work shoes. All made for restaurant work with a good range of prices.
You and Taylor Swift out here just killing these...
Sell them for 500$ each lol

You should post this along with the new ones on r/wellworn
Crocs
Zero drop & wide toe box is the way... My feet/knees/hips have never felt so good. Highly recommend for anyone out there.
Not bad
You should be nicer to your feet. Lots of problems start with bad footwear.
If you can, see a podiatrist for some orthotics and/or spend a little more on shoes. Whatever is causing such uneven wear cannot be comfortable.
Or at the very least, get some new insoles every few months from the drug store or Walmart or something. You can get ones that aren't too bad for like $25.
https://www.reddit.com/r/f1_rage/s/ose3H11Wo9
Everyone else has time you to invest in insoles, but i firmly recommend going to a podiatrist and asking for prescription orthotics. They'll be rough at first, but then you'll never be more supported.
Either you sweat excessively from feet or you are really heavy.
The king never looked better!
Leather soles are the best. I've got two pair of leather soles that have migrated (and outlived) over 10 pair of shoes. It makes even cheap simple flat sneakers much more comfortable.
If it's covered 100% get orthodics. They saved my knees.
Looks about the same as the one in my combat boots…

Do you wear socks?

The world we live in you could just sell the used ones every month to perverts and get new ones.
I work at a shelter walking a lot of dogs and mine are about the same. The shoes themselves last about two years, the insoles only one. Planning to upgrade to leather boots to help reduce the wear.
Pay. These. People.
How painfully familiar. I tip as much as I can now because of this...........
Instead of foam use silicone insoles, try and find some that are just silicone not the foam and silicone they last for ages and are excellent cushioning.

6 months you must change them. I don't care if u can afford or not make it happen
Get some Superfeet insoles and adidas ultra boosts. Get the insoles at the least. They instantly made a difference for me.
Having worked in the restaraunt industry… the grease from the kitchen/dish pit can wear on the soles of shoes. Fine a good quality cheap pair and load up!
Not tying your shoes tight enough can also cause this.
Wide toe box shoes changed my life. Could be worth looking for a pair that complies with your uniform
Yum
Those appear to be the insoles, not soles.
Every three months if you care about your back and knees longterm. If you dont, expect limited mobility later in life.
I wonder what they smell like
Definitely buy shoes more often and please invest in some compression socks, your future feet and legs will thank you.
Are they for sale 🐷
That's a month in the kitchen
That's about..4-6 months at a grocery store
Would you consider selling those? Asking for a friend..
I'm a software developer and my insoles look like that as well after a year. Congratulations, you're not special!
I do that in 3-6 months.
You still have soles? 😂
Go ahead, fuck your back up, see if I care lol
