So I calculated how many miles I have on my current pair of Sprints and it comes to 520 miles. They look surprisingly nice for the amount of miles. Most traditional running shoes need replaced around 200-300 miles. I got right around 500 miles on my last pair of Classics until the yellow material inside the heel started to break down. The Sprints look awesome and I think they'll last another couple hundred miles. In case you're wondering what they look like:
I haven't washed these nearly as much as I washed the Classics - I was wondering if that is the reason for the breakdown of the inside material. The picture may not show but the Sprints are starting to get worn on the sole - I mainly run on asphalt. There is a small rip in the fabric by one of the toes but otherwise they are in great shape. And I don't have to worry about the breakdown of EVA either...
