Good morning folks.

Todays question is about shoes.

How many pairs and what kind (dress/running/sandals) do you own?

edit to fix date, if not fixed could someone please do it for me.

I have to figure it out:

Dress shoes: 9 pairs in various colors, including a very funky red pump with the highest heels I've ever seen....I love those pumps
Boots: 5 pairs (I think...might be 5. I just love boots!)
Sandals and summer wear: 6 pairs, not including 3 pairs of very old Dr. Scholls sandals that I still love to wear....one pair is red and I just love those things
Sneakers/Walking shoes: 3 pairs and 1 pair of old Nike walking sneakers that I wear now to mow the lawn and work in the garden

Hmmmm

3 pairs of sneakers (Nike, Saucony and New Balance)
1 pair of crocs and a pair of purple croc flip flops
2 pairs of roots flip flops
2 pairs of dressy boots and I think that's it.

Lot's of em' and I'm too lazy to go and count them. I do wear mostly sneakers during the week. When I'm going out with Russ and of course depending where we are going, I will wear high wedgies or flat sandals. I don't wear high heeled shoes much anymore. I have a multitude of handbags also, they are my downfall

Dress Shoes: 1 pair for work (I really should get another)
Dress Boots: 1 pair (I love boots and wear them to wok to justify them)
Sandals:5 pairs (2 crummy, 1 moderate, 2 nice)
1 Pair winter hiking boots
Sneakers: 2 pairs, one for the gym and one for everything else.

So...10 pairs.

I own tons of shoes
Couldn't even count.

One pair of walking/running shoes, tons of flip flops and sandals, a variety of heels 6"-8" (my pole shoes), work sneakers, a few pairs of boots...my closet is overrun with shoes, AND my mom gave me a bag of sandals she can't wear anymore a few months ago to add on top.

I have a ton of boots and sneakers! My closet's over flowing with them. Even though I only wear the same 2 or 3 pairs all the time
Most are Converse, a couple are Adidas. I only have 1 pair of dress shoes.

30+ pair ranging from runners, thongs, and walking shoes through to killer high heels and platforms with 5+ inch heels. And, continue to buy more almost every time I pass a shoe store.

I'm a minimalist so I don't have a lot of stuff.


1 pair leather snow boots
1 pair everyday flat leather boots
1 pair of converse leather x-hi tops
2 pairs of leather sandals
2 pairs of rubber sandals (for the shore)
2 pairs of dressy leather shoes

I just realized that they are all black, grey, or pewter, lol.

Not many these days, sadly.
I have a a hallux valgus on my right foot that probably needs surgery (waiting to see a specialist), and most of my shoes are unwearable with it, so I tossed the ones that weren't in great condition, which was most of them (this thing actually wore holes on the side of a bunch of my shoes!) and put a few pairs that are still in nice condition away for later when it's fixed. I have a grand total of three wearable pairs: a pair of moccasins and a pair of flip-flops for everyday use, andembarrassingly, a pair of water shoes that I use for stuff like hiking and running.
