Going to a specialty running store and dealing with a 30 something year old sub elite hobby jogger shoe salesperson
The fact that a company can’t keep a single model in its lineup for much more than a year. You find a shoe you like, and then it’s not produced anymore.
that decent shoes on sale/clearance are now above $100. It used to be you could find old models below $100 todays shoes start at 120-180 and are on sale for 100-120. At least the models on their main lineup for most brands.

Don’t you just hate it when a youngest who thinks they have made it but won’t complains about someone who runs as a hobby

Yes. I think they sold a lot less shoes in the last year and they didn't produce much new ones, to keep the prices up.
Also the shoe companies do their own sales events now with old models. There is no need to go to running warehouse anymore.
