A good pair of shoes, especially if you’re on your feet a lot. Your body will thank you now and in the future for spending a couple hundred bucks on a pair of good quality shoes. It depends on what you’re doing but I do most of my running around in ASICS and I can feel the difference if I wear almost anything else. There are good choices in Brooks, Saucony, New Balance, and Mizuno as well

Agreed. I usually wear On. I know a ton of people love Hoka (I think they’re ugly). But my MIL has really bad hip/knee/ankle issues and she has to be on her feet for work all day. Hoka was a life saver when she found them
