I got a pair of shoes from a shop/brand I don’t usually buy shoes from last April and used them almost daily for my morning walks. Here are photos showing the conditions now.

The bottoms are pretty worn out. I am careful during my walks as I may slip on some surfaces as the soles lose traction.

There are tears to the fabric of the upper part of the shoe where it’s connected to the soles. This is on the right shoe.

This is the tear on the left shoe.

I was hoping these would be as durable as my other shoes that I have used for my walks. Unfortunately, they are what they are as of now. I can and still use them almost everyday but am wary about their not being usable in the near future.
