Does having a goodyear welt construction constitute to a longer shoe lifespan?

I ask because I'm shopping for a pair of sneakers that I can walk around in Thailand. Having lived in Japan I made the poor decision of buying Wolverine/Red Wing and Nisolo boots which lead to my feet being utterly destroyed from constantly walking around.

This time I'll be packing New Balance / Nike Free's and possibly the pic to my left. Me and my nip fiancee are going to strive for comfort, we grew tired of the Tokyo fashion scene and just want to focus on our online business.

We'll be in Thailand for two years and then back to Japan, but before I drop 100+ on these Van's would they last, I'm going for leather since it rains balls over there just like fucking Japan. Also we will be weight training~

Much love

thats not called goodyear welt. the type of sole is known as a cupsole.

good year is pretty much only found on dress shoes and boots. pic related

but yes those should last longer than the normal vulcanized soles on vans, but its not going to make them last forever

So where are you based at the moment? If you're in Japland i'd go with moonstarts from what you're describing. Looks kinda like cons, rubberized bottom for water resistance and flat heels for weight training
