My feet and overall posture have thanked me relentlessly from my choice to spend $50-100 more on footwear every year or so since I have started buying Nike shoes. I mean, the difference is literally night and day from when I used to just grab a cheap or even ‘reasonably’ cheap ($50-70?) pair of shoes.

Sweatpants, screw that - I’ll quote Macklemore here, “$50 for a t-shirt, that’s just some fucking ignorant shit,” - go buy them from freaking Wal-Mart - who is going to see you in them anyways but your partner - but Nike’s core business is shoes, and my God, they do it exceptionally well.
