I work In a factory and they require us to wear to wear all leather upper shoes. I currently wear a black pair of leather tavas but they have seemed to wear out super quick (7 months). I need some advice on what kind of shoe I should buy next. I could buy some insoles to try out in my tavas but idk if that's gonna help plus having more than one shoe to alternate days with. I tried some air max 90s at one point but they were to narrow and when I bought them big to compensate it didn't work out to well. I was thinking about trying to find a pair of air max 95s on sale at an outlet maybe but I'd like to hear some recommendations

Probably easier to find all leather new balance shoes or maybe Jordan 12 lows that just came out?
 
Well I'm def not gonna buy a 170 dollar pair of Jordan 12 lows to wear in a factory, but if I went another route other than Nike what other shoes would you recommend
 
Yea those def won't work they're all mesh upper isn't leather lol. I'm planning on going to a couple Nike outlets this weekend and if I can find anything I may just grab some reebok classics and insoles
 
I work for Nissan where we build engines and they require us to wear to wear all leather upper shoes.

I hope I can help you out as I found these few particular options great for myself although I work at an office. This is if you're looking for Nike only in particular.

The Roshe Two Leather Premium (http://store.nike.com/us/en_us/pd/roshe-two-leather-premium-mens-shoe/pid-11246891/pgid-11867785) comes in four great color choices. Seeing it, feeling it in person, and as an owner of the Roshe Two Flyknit version, it features a very nice memory foam insole as part of the triple-density foam cushioning system for the "all day, everyday" comfort you may be looking for. At $130, it may be a bit hefty, but the shoe's buttery-smooth and baby-soft leather could probably benefit.

Any four of these NikeLab Air Force 1s excluding the Air Force 1 High CMFT (http://store.nike.com/us/en_us/pw/n/1j7?sl=nikelab air force) all come in many colors, low-top or mid-top. I've seen the newer version of the NikeLab Air Force 1 Low in person (http://store.nike.com/us/en_us/pd/nikelab-air-force-1-low-mens-shoe/pid-11455827/pgid-11621652) and the quality is great. It is leather from top to bottom, including the midsole as well. The cool part is that they feature a drop-in Phylon midsole with an Air unit underneath in the heel. If you perhaps have a pair of Kobe 8s or 9s or any other shoe with drop-in midsoles that are thick enough, you can switch it out and adjust your comfort. Prices range from $150 - $165.

Hope this helps!

Shoot I work in an auto factory myself (ford) and I never get 7 months out of a pair of shoes.
 
Well everything I've read so far is pointing to some monarchs as the most comfortable work shoe and for 47 bucks that ain't to bad
