After some footwear recommendations!

On my second pair of leather brogues in just over a year from Asos, and the sole seems to wear rather quickly! After around 6 months some parts of the sole are almost completely worn through!

Anyone able to recommend a shoe with a fairly hard wearing sole?

Brogues would be good. Budget around £40-50!
 
Think my soles were leather, or partly anyway, seems to be around 4-5 layers of various materials.

I don't mind dropping £40-50 on a new pair which has a harder sole and also can be re-soled further down the line.
 
That's all I've came across, not my style unfortunately. :o

I'd love some Gucci brogues, but for daily wear in an engineering office, a bit much! Especially with the occasional jaunt downstairs to the factory floor.
 
Yup, as soon as they're worn down to the stitching I take them to Gucci and get them redone. I nearly did the same thing and paid for it, but my Dad has been returning his collection to Gucci for years and told me about it. :)

I guess they're not too expensive then in real terms as I imagine they'll last xx years and with free re-soling too you'll save a fortune over their lifetime.
