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.
On some shoes I’ve gotten around 1000 miles, while others have started to get early wear at a tenth that much. Agreed with others who say that if you feel something, try switching to a new pair. Even if you don’t, the cushioning breaks down gradually, so after several hundred miles it doesn’t hurt to get new shoes for comparison. If they feel like walking on clouds compared to the current ones, you’ll know what to do.
