Shoes degrade more quickly when used daily as they don't have time to dry properly and such, thus rotating is good. For example, you can get 2 pairs of shoes that'd normally last a year, but by rotating them you can double their lifespans.
Still got shoes I got 5 years ago which look great besides the slight dirtiness. Those would've broken years ago if I didn't have rotation.
Edit: Forgot to add that you can just go for some reputable brand shoes you like, get 2 pairs of those and switch them up every day (can get different pairs as well). Mostly just focus on comfort

Had Timberland Brookling 6 Inch (x Wood Wood version) since 2019 as my daily winter boots, still looks pretty much brand new if you don't count slight amount of dirt on the sole (been too lazy to clean 'em regularly)
