I get shoes that I like. I'm just not paying huge figures for stuff made cheaply in a third world country.
Fashion is based on a need to convince schmucks they need to keep buying a type of product that was always meant for extended use. So, fashion changes, and people try to keep up. But fashion loops around. Most men's fashion can be divided into: basically same look we've had for 50 years, something that is about to be tragic, and "witness description of guy who robbed me last night."
