These look good! But yeah, my feet are kinda wide..
I'm a bit hard on shoes due to lack of arch, but I got nearly two seasons of AutoX out of a pair before wearing through in the heel. Average is 18000 steps on those days, and... well, let's see - ~280 runs on a set of RE71's, so... 40+ of those days. So I'd guess about 500 miles?

To be fair, the midsole on shoes like this just doesn't hold up to the high impact of running for more than ~3-6 months. That's how often people *should* be replacing running shoes.
