I am getting dynafish and leili. This brings my current shoe rotation to 8.

Need to up my mileage already to justify the number of pairs of shoes haha
Now that you mentioned, jialat I'm also up to 8.

I don't run as much as you guys do long distance.

Now only do 8k to 10k. Alternate days. Focus is building muscles and looking good.

I think don't need to buy shoes in 2026. But say only. 😂

Lucky you guys don't follow me on Strava. Pre covid shoes still in rotation, but still buying new shoes each half year.

Where u keep your shoes sia?
I now got 11 pairs of shoes including jogging/sports ones (not counting slippers) until cabinet no space. My wife also doesn't have so many pairs. I already threw away and donated a few good condition ones, and using those double-shoe holders. Last evening bought one more pair of sketchers when I saw sale at Nex.
