I didn't wear trainers, except for the godawful military issue ones we had to wear for light PT in the army.

My go-to footwear for everyday wear was a pair of canvas boots. I lived in them.

I had massive feet, so I was limited what we could afford.

I think Reebok were the only ones we could get in a 13 back then for less than squillions

Southport

I never but anything because it had an expensive brand name.

I buy stuff to be practical and that will last.

I used to buy Karrimore walking boots because the looked good, very comfortable and lasted - now they fall apart after a few weeks use (99% its the sole falls off - cheap manufacturing now that they're made in China) and the price has trebled, so won't be getting them anymore.
