    If you mean "running shoes", then about every 400-500 miles.

    Ooooohhhhhh.... I wanna know! I'm terrible about having just one pair of tennis shoes and keeping them for four years at a time. :ohwell:

    I'm picky about my running shoes (I only wear Nike Pegasus). I usually replace them every 6 months or so. I can tell when they've broken down and I need new ones. My back will start to hurt.

    Any time I feel a change in my stride or my legs ache after a very normal run. It usually is around 300-400 miles for me. But honestly, I don't count all my miles to know exactly. I just can figure it out roughly. If you have any changes in how your foot feels or your legs (even hips and back can come into play) after you run, it may be time for a new pair.

    Oh, and if you use inserts get a new set every time you get new shoes, no matter what anyone says. They tend to form to the shoes and not just your foot and if you move them from shoe to shoe you can end up with issues. -Just a tip.

    I can get about 400 miles out of my shoes (= ~ 2 months). I alternate between two pairs of the same shoes.

    I switch at about ever 600km. But make sure you get shoes that work for you. Go to a store that has someone who will watch while you walk and see if your pronate or not.
