Mattress and shoes.
Both of which you use multiple hours each day, and can really break your body if they aren't ergonomic.
The cheap ones also break often, costing you more money in the long run.
I am curious whether good shoes actually last longer. I buy the cheapest possible shoes, which is around $25 pre skate board shoe, and they typically last a year.
If more expensive skateboard shoes can last me more than two or three years (wearing every day), I would happy to get them for more.
Do any one have experience with these shoes? I mainly need them to be weather resistant (don't absorb water in a rain is enough) and reasonably breathable (so no hiking boots).
I invested in a pair of San Antonio Shoemaker sneakers a few years ago when I started having foot problems. They are still going fairly strong. Only change was a custom insole a podiatrist made for me. No foot problems since. Highly recommended getting quality shoes.
