I measured my walk to work today, it's 3.75 miles each way and jolly nice except that my shins have started cramping (only on the downhills, they perk up again when I go uphill - yes, uphill in Cambridge - Castle Street and the long slog up Newmarket Road). My shoes are worn down at heel already, and they're only three weeks old; they're probably not designed for this treatment.
People sometimes ask why I don't get bespoke shoes, and I've usually replied "Hah, yeah, when I get a job I'll look into it."
I have a job. I looked into it. £1500/pair looks common. Comfort aside, would they really outlast 30 pairs of my usual shoes?
