Bro I have bad feet after years of wearing shitty chucks and vans. $100 is like the entry level for good "adult" shoes. Even then you're probably walking around in some neon Asics or something.

edit: orthotics are your friend but they're not cheap either

Chucks and Vans are definitely not good shoes. They are stylish shoes, but the shoe itself is a piece of cloth over a piece of cardboard. No wonder you have bad feet, bro, you've been walking on trash.

I bought a pair of steel toe boots with good insole and arch support for about $85 three years ago and those things are still going strong. Comfy and durable. If you've got big feet or want nicer boots than me, that can range up to about $150, anything higher than that is designer bullshit. Don't fall for a brand name.

That's what they said... they said they had bad feet from years of wearing those shitty shoes.
