Maybe you're not aware of the brands that do this, or maybe those brands don't suit you? Converse Chuck Taylors and Vans skate shoes haven't really changed much in decades. I go through a pair of Vans low-top slip-ons every six months and just re-up when the tread falls apart

Sadly Vans have stopped doing the style I liked wearing and had been being for years (often buying several pairs at once). I'm hoping that the Etnies I now wear wont go the same way.

The other issue I've had is when finding something I like and that fits, I often can't bulk buy because there's only one or two items actually in stock. Thankfully these days I can often buy the one item in the shop and get the remaining ones online.

Bought a pair of white chucks that I loved. Bought a second pair 6 months later. I would buy a 3rd pair if they still made them, but they don't.
