dang. i'm cheap. at this point in my life, i can't see myself paying more than $30...... i would rather buy my girls the more expensive shoes. $2.50 old navy flip flops is where it's at!
Wearing poor fitting shoes can create a host of problems later. The most expensive pair of sneakers I bought were a 100 dollars. I have been fortunate to find good shoes for less than that most of the time. I would say my average is between 65-75 dollars.
My last two pair of sneakers have been $100-$120. I don't mind paying for good sneakers seeing as I'm on my feet all day on top of my workouts as well.
As others have said - it depends. Are you talking about a person who just likes a variety of sneakers and wants a "different" pair to kick around in? Or a serious runner? Or a person who is on their feet all day and needs a good, comfortable yet supportive shoe. Or a person who has a really challenging foot and cannot simply buy a $30 pair of sneakers that fit?
I have wide feet with high insteps and I don't overpronate. I also have bad knees. Shoes are important and I was told by my podiatrist that I needed to buy a good shoe with a certain last (shoe mold). I found it at New Balance, and luckily it came in under 100 bucks. They've made the shoe for some time.
But I hate the look of always wearing sneakers at all times, like that's my go to shoe. My go to shoe is the Land's End suede moc. And the last time I bought it, it was 50 bucks and very cheaply made.... so now I'm hunting for something else.
What is the most you would pay for sneakers? Me I will only spend $50.00 max..I cant see spending a lot of money on sneakers but I do like to be comfortable.
I buy some of my stuff on 6PM.com and I just bought a pair of running shoes for $29.99. They have some amazing sales.

Just because it's so worth it when they feel great! Along with some new Haynes socks and I am running with a smile!
