Yeah, don't skimp on shoes. I wouldn't ever buy shoes because of how they looked, except for dress shoes for my suit/tuxedo/whatever. But I've spent ~$150 on hiking boots that have lasted 5+ years and hundreds of miles.
I spend $80-120 each on two pairs of running shoes every 4-6 months since I put about 700-800 miles on each of them in that time. I'm talking about real running shoes by brands like Mizuno, or the Bowerman series rather than that Nike SHOX crap. With those running shoes especially, the difference between two different shoes in the $80 range by the same brand is immediately noticeable.
