Give your shoes priority. If you are an office worker, student, celebrity or whoever who goes to school, work, a party, play tennis or basketball, run, or dance, your shoes are your most important thing of your clothes. No matter howfabulous they are, they will not last forever. So, get new shoes if:
You have wore them for more than 600 miles.
You have used them for many years.
The heels tilt when you place the shoes on a table.
You can see over 3/8 to 1/2 inch of tear on the sole or heel.
You notice the mid-sole through the outer sole.
You grown out of your petite shoes.
Your ankles, knees, or hips start to ache for no obviouscause.
When you get a new pair of athletic small shoes, regardless of the activity they’re to be used for, take your used ones with you so that the salesperson can inspect them and offertips as to what you need. If you ‘re just starting an exercisesession and have no athletic shoes, bring along a pair of used, well-worn casual shoes.
Safety shoes are recommended. As comfortable as sneakers may be, they offer little resistance to rusty nails around a carpentry job. If your work boots are too hot and uncomfortable for you, try a lightweight hiking boot with fabric sides and a sturdy lug sole.
It is agreeable that keeping your shoes, sneakers or boots to last long,take time to maintain them. Here are some of the shoe cleaning tips:

Shoe Protector - Plastic food storage bags make great shoe covers when you’re working in the muddy garden. Put two bags over each shoe and tie them with rubber bands around your ankles. Instead of dealing withmuddy boots, just throw the bags away when you’re finished outside.
Hot Rocks for Drying Boots - To dry out boots, heat a can or panful of clean round pebbles in the oven, pour them inside the boot, and shake them around until the pebbles cool. The heat will bepenetrated into the boot and dry out the moisture. Some synthetic boot linings may melt from too much heat, so try for heat sensitivity first by holding a hot pebble in one spot for a few seconds.
If you’re camping and your boots get wet inside, pull two rocks from the campfire and place them on the ground. Then put the boots upside down on stakes so they’re over, but not touching, the rocks. You’ll have dry boots by morning.
