An aside: the actual functional Nikes aren't luxury items, just really good shoes. My wife’s a foot surgeon and she won’t run in anything else because they fit her perfectly.
I've never found Nikes that work for me, but Brooks seem custom made for me personally, so that's what I get. They're about the same price as my wife’s Nikes.
- hx8 2y agoI agree fully. Having comfortable shoes with reasonable lifespans isn't a luxury. If you spend more money and get a proportional increase in quality, that's not luxury. A luxury good occurs when the marginal increase in quality cannot be justified by the increase in price. For example, you could buy a quartz Casio for $25 that's more accurate than a $10,000 mechanical Rolex. Both tell you the same time.
