Here's my question, which validates my point.
Are you going to buy whatever shoes others suggest, or are you going to buy whatever brand and pair feel best for you? Buying shoes is not the same as buying a $300 roller board or $900 headset. So why ask about a common, affordable, everyday item that everyone wears? In the end, you may end up with a cheap pair of slip-ons from Payless or decide the $150 Johnston & Murphy's are worth the investment. If you wear them and hate them after two weeks, try another pair. Everybody's feet and type of walking are different. Point is, you're asking about something that you WEAR on a daily basis. How are others going to know what shoe you should choose? The other flight equipment items that cost hundreds or thousands of dollars are worth asking about.
I don't like wasting my money, whether it's $35 or $3500, which is why threads like this have value. If you don't care about accidentally buying a lemon pair of shoes then I'm glad you have enough money that it isn't an issue.
I somehow doubt the original poster is at home having an existential crisis over this, he's just posing a quick question to get some reviews. There's no harm in asking if there are known good or bad brands. No one forces you to read these threads.
