Whatever you get if you decide you like it make sure to get a second pair and rotate them. Even cheap shoes can last a long time if they are not tasked with all of your work.

I always have a few I'm rotating. today I trashed one pair in mud and hosed them down at home. another pair are clean and dry waiting in the meantime....Whatever you get if you decide you like it make sure to get a second pair and rotate them.

My wife argues this but I've never understood it. Would you get more life out of rotating two pairs of shoes, or just buy another pair after the first wears out. To me it seems that you'd get about the same amount of usage.
Back in the day (when shoes were leather), it WAS beneficial to 'rotate' pairs. Doing so would allow the not-being-used pair to dry out / 'breathe' and thus retain its integral structure, etc. for a longer time. Does this same concept hold true for 'synthetic' material shoes? Not sure...but I doubt it would hurt.
Yep, that's fair. To each their own indeed.
Have you tried nice, lightweight merino wool? I'm in love with my darn tough socks for summer use.
Best trail shoes I have found are Oboz.
Having said that, I quit wearing trail shoes to play dg in. I am now playing in casual flats. Flat bottoms give much better weight transfer.
I cannot find any trail runners, that are flat, in any store. I did find an Aussie company that makes them....but I really dont want to pay international shipping on a pair of shoes that may not fit.

Scarpa Crux. They are an approach shoe with a pretty flat bottom. I love mine and they have lasted a long time
Having a 2nd pair of shoes and socks is absolute money if you play more than one round, especially on a long day/tournament/next day and your current pair got soaked.
I think we can all agree that those adidas are crap, right?
Inov-8 have a super low ramp angle if that is what you are talking about. These for instance have a 4mm drop. That's nothing. I'm surprised more disc golfers aren't wearing these,
