I find most of the sports brands are of a similar mid quality. That is, less durable than they used to be. I remember runners lasting way longer than they currently do. I usually only buy when on sale, that way I feel I’m not getting ripped off for something that won’t last. DFO outlets or sites like Catch often have significant discounts. Spending $300 one off or $100 three times over will work out the same I guess.
