A few months ago I found a pair of hiking shoes in our hall closet. They were unused, and I'd had them in there for I-don't-know-how-many years. I used them for a short, easy hike in January then wore them on the drive to another hike today... and found out they're already trash.
As you can see in the video, the body of the shoe has come separated from the sole. I'm guessing the glue holding the two together dried out and cracked after too many years even though the shoe was never used. Or maybe it's just a shit quality shoe. Again, I wore this shoe for a total of maybe 4 hours, and most of that time was while driving to/from the trail.
I'm glad I packed a second pair of footwear suitable for today's hike!
