Like when your current model goes on sale, do you get more or just trust that shoes you will like just as much, if not better, will always come along?

Yes. I have purchased running shoes for as low as $35 before and $40 several times. When my model of shoe is on sale for that cheap I generally buy 4 pair. I think I've had up to six pair unused in my closet before though... Due to running collegiately I still have something like 9 pairs of racing spikes. I wish I was able to use them more.
Hmmmm….thought the foam, cushioning material on most all shoes 'broke down', got stale, basically got old after a few years?

It does if you're in an area with a radiation leak.
Yes. When i find a shoe I like on sale, I typically buy another pair. I have six pair of unworn shoes right now.
Not that's freakin' funny!!!

Us oldsters learned long ago - if you find a shoe model you like, buy as many pairs of it as you can afford. Shoe companies have this nasty habit of "upgrading" a particular model after a few seasons, rendering said shoe model worthless. Like adding a "stabilizing insert" or other such thing, and because of our weirdly shaped running feet we end up feeling it pronouncedly with each step.
