Shoes?

Happymom · **Shoes?**

How many shoes do you buy for yourself? I basically have a winter pair and a summer pair, that is about it. When I was younger I was obsessed with shoes and bought way too many. Now I have bad feet problems, so I find a comfortable pair that works with my orthodics and I wear them until they fall apart. Guess I am too old to worry about fashion, now comfort is all that matters

I'm not big on shoes, so I really just have the basics.
Winter boots, tennis shoes, a good pair of black stilettos, sandals, comfy sandals, mules and a couple others that belong to an outfit.
I can wear flip flops all year round!

My former obsession- how I miss having many different shoes to choose from

! Anyways- I have 1 pair of tennis shoes (that I have had for 2 years- still in great shape!), a back up pair of shoes that my mom gave me (she has feet issues as well and they were not comfortable for her- we wear the same size), I have a pair of boots for winter (I would like to get a new pair), one pair of heels, maryjane flats and 3 pairs of sandals (one comfy, one for camping and 1 nicer pair for going out).

I wear mine until they wear out. Shoes are just too spendy to have several nice pairs anymore.

Besides I am feeding my daughters shoe obsession I buy her new shoes all the time because they are all too cute.

I have a pair of tennis shoes, boots, flip flops and dress shoes. I used to love shoes too, but now I just wear flip flops as long as I can and then tennis shoes until it snows, then boots. I HATE socks and shoes. I would rather wear flip flops. My husband hates it.

I have a lot of shoes for evening...and love them!

I do probably have more than the average bear for everyday wear too. I tend to only wear black shoes. So like right now, I have four pairs of boots that I started wearing for fall in a variety of heel heights and materials. Then this year I bought some ballarina flats, so I'll wear those thru the fall along with other silp on flat shoes. I will find something I like, and I don't have a problem spending more money to get a quality product. I tend to wear them for years and years. I have a pair of black boots that are over 10 years old! I love them! They still look great!

Well, usually I have a pair of tennis shoes and a couple of pairs of dress shoes. I have flipflops in the summer, but I don't think they ever last more than one summer.
Right now I need new tennis shoes, I have a couple pairs of fake crocs, and one pair of dress shoes, that don't go with everthing. Ideally I would like, one pair of crocs, one pair of tennis shoes, a pair of boots, and 2 or 3 pairs of dress shoes. Time to go shopping.

Oh gosh, I couldn't even count. I wouldn't even really describe myself as in to shoes but I have a wide variety. I wear both black and brown often so I have shoes of most categories in both colors, especially loafers. I do like boots and have several different heel heights in each color. I have a weakness for sandals and probably have about 20 pairs. I have several different pairs of tennis shoes, some that are for working out and some that are just for wearing around town. Then a few pairs of heels for a hot night on the town. I wouldn't say I have too many pairs of shoes, probably just the right amount to fit my needs.

My dh and I are shoe addicts. He's got tons and I have maybe about 30 pairs...sneakers, flip-flops, dressy/casual, boots.....lots of shoes. But I would love to wear flip-flops year round but where I live you can't really do that.
