Well if you buy shoes with the 6 month outsole warranty, you'll get 2 pairs for the price of one. If you are not wearing out the shoes within 6 months, I wouldn't worry too much about durability.

I can run through a pair of running shoes is 6 weeks playing tennis every few days.. Yet, it's been 9 months since I got the Barricade 6.0's, and I'm replacing them due to worn out tread. Those things live up to their name.

This. Last year's models are the best value IMO.

And many of them have the 6 month durability warranty.
