I've been thinking as of late that I need a new pair of shoes. My Giro road shoes are two years old, and they show it, but they still work very well. Then again, I (only) make right at 800 watts, maximum. I'm not likely to break the ratchet on those shoes, or need to strap myself to the pedals. I did replace my cleats recently, though.
