Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

My shoes wear very similarly to yours Gobi, outside edge but mainly toward the rear.

I need to post a photo of my VF soles. Even WW will be impressed :-)

The other (left) shoe is mainly ok, I always destroy shoes on the right hand side, my right hip has less flexibility - even with tons of flexibility work, there's simply a limit to its range of motion that can't be extended. So I tend to supinate a lot on the right.... but got good use out of them!

blimey!

Are you still using those Chris? I(I hope not) If not, you could check the state of the plate to see if it's still in one piece.

Chrisull, I reckon you're probably past the point where you can get your money back on those shoes.

Haha Chrisull. I genuinely thought that I took my shoes to the limit but that is really quite something :-D. The wear and tear on the VF sole is by far the worst I've seen. Nothing disintegrates quite like it

I once temporarily lost a bag that got dragged along under a car for a while. It looked better than that when I got it back!
