Agree.
I'm about the same age and find that the value in spending more is you usually get more--and it's a better value.
For shoes, you have to get what really works for you. I like Merrells 'cuz they are a great value and they fit my feet, but not everyone likes them. The knock-offs for half the price (LL Bean and Lands End) are not remotely the same, at least for my feet--Wouldn't take a pair as a gift.
The other thing to consider in any shoe is the footbeds. I use ones with gelled heels and they make a good shoe better. Like custom beds in ski boots, they really make a difference.
And I don't put cheap tires on anything.
