I cycle between 4 pairs of shoes in summer, two pairs of boots in winter, and one pair of all year shoes. I have had them all for over ten years. Tips:
I also prefer to buy shoes made in UK, Italy, or US but that is just preference for perceived quality and definitely higher paid workers than most countries that mass produce shoes.
If you want a specific recommendation go with Allen Edmond Strandmoks. That's my all year pair. Great shoes.
People really underestimate how much better your footware lasts if you take care of it by cycling between a few pairs and providing good interior support when isn't in use.
Meanwhile I just wear the same pair of shoes for ten years or so until it starts to get holes in the toes, then get extreme anxiety at the thought of trying to find a new, suitable replacement.
