Until what happened? 300 miles isn’t where the shoe falls apart. It’s a loss in ideal cushioning.

That seems pretty subjective is there any data behind this? If I changed shoes every 300 miles I’d be getting new ones every few months

It is subjective because everyone’s gait and weight is different. Maybe for you it’s longer. But generally speaking, the cushion of the shoes will be long gone by the time it’s literally unwearable.

Edit: also this is the guideline for running not walking, which obviously involves more impact.
