Whose are the shoes

Wow, that's a lot of shoes. A whole 4 pairs! I own precisely ONE pair of shoes, TWO pairs of "girlie boots", ONE pair of high boots, THREE pairs of trainers (if you include the pair I am wearing which I actually commandeered from my other half!) The only reason I own so many is because I never throw them away. I also believe I have several pairs of sandals and slippers (that's if they haven't walked themselves to the bin.) On a daily basis, I will switch between a couple of pair of trainers. It was, until recently, usually just the one pair, but they got ruined in the rain and my dad kept them so I couldn't wear them any more! My shoes are blue shiny ones which only come out on special occassions like rock concerts and that sort of thing! If I'm going somewhere that won't let you in if you're wearing trainers, I wear my zip up ankle boots that my other half got me for my birthday. As for all my other footwear, I honestly do not know why it still exists! My ideal amount to spend on a pair of shoes depends on what they are for really. I generally won't spend more than £10 on anything but my partner did go all the way up to £16.99 because he said I needed them! If they are walking boots or shoes then I might spend a bit more. But a £10 pair of trainers will do me fine. The ones I'm wearing (the commandeered ones) are really comfortable, they've survived my partner's feet and now they are somehow surviving mine!

I have a lot of shoes, p1kef1sh. I love shoes. All kinds of shoes. I have one pair of heels from before the time that I gave away approx. 35 pairs of them, after my second ankle break, and the subsequent steel plate and screws I now live with, and anyway, the ones I'm talking about are probably 25 years old and they're just such a piece of art, I keep them, always will, and occasionally even wear them. And I wish I would have kept some of the platforms I used to wear in the 70s. I had some magnificent ones! Now, I wear mostly flats, because of the ankle, but they're good ones. Flat can be sexy and dressy as well as functional and sensible. I also wear some heels, although lower than I used to, boots, usually flat, except my cowboy boots, which have the typically 2 1/2 inch heel. I also have a lot of crocs, which is just about all I wear in the summer or if I'm going to be needing a lot of comfort. My shoes are everywhere, too. I'm very lackadaisical about putting them where they're supposed to be. Both hubby and I trip over them regularly, but he never says a thing, just continues on his way, bless his heart. Oh, and I will often change shoes during the day, one pair for day, and another for evening. One for working, another for after. Sometimes I wear heels when I'm going out, but carry a pair of flats to wear on the way home. Yup, shoes are a big part of my life. Just part of who I am, I guess.

Oh I have loads of shoes. Actually I don't know how many pairs I have but I have six full shoe racks and still some left over. Boots are my weakness though and I know exactly how many pairs of them I have but am too embarassed to say it lol. It's a ridiculous number anyway! I do wear a different pair of shoes or boots every day although I have favourites that I wear more often than others. As for how much I spend on them - probably too much. I will buy cheap shoes, I'm not a shoe snob or anything like that, but the amount I'm prepared to pay depends on how much I want them. The cheapest pair of shoes I have cost a fiver, the most expensive cost more than £300 (well they're boots actually). As for the old ones if I've worn them a lot I'll usually throw them out. If I haven't worn them much I'll give them away or if no-one I know wants them and they're in good enough condition I'll either sell them on eBay or sometimes I give them to one of the local charity shops if they need stuff to sell.

Only 11 pairs? Must be nice! Try a house with 3 kids, one adult; all in Canada during the spring. Why does the season matter? Because in one day, you could easily have to go from wearing winter boots to rain boots to shoes. It's nuts. I have a shoe rack with 6 shelves on it in the front hall. Everyone gets their own shelf (I take 2, because I'm mom lol), and the top shelf is for drying hats and mits during the winter, and flip flops or water shoes in the summer. Of course, boots don't fit on the shelves, because they're too high. So for now, the winter boots are on the floor beside, and the rain boots are in the closet. Soon, once all the snow is melted (this week??? I HOPE!!! ), I can pack the snow boots up, and replace them with the rain boots. As for shoes, me, I have a lot of pairs. But I only wear a few regularly, and keep those on my shelves in the front hallway area. The others I have in my bedroom closet. I really ought to get rid of most of them, because I don't wear them at all, hardly. Most are in great shape, so I'll donate them to the local Diabetes Association (they come to my house to pick up things like that). As for shoes that are old and obviously worn away, they get tossed in the garbage. I don't understand why people keep around ratty old shoes that can't be worn anyways. Makes no sense.

LOL P1ke, you just had me checking the footwear in my hallway. What a mess! I counted 3 pairs of work boots for my soon to be ex, 2 pairs of running shoes for my son, and one pair of shoes for myself. The hall is small, and now I know where the boot smell is coming from! I'll be so glad to see them removed to the RV! LOL I buy my shoes already broken in. I have a new pair of heels I bought for 'dressing up' but rarely get a chance to use them. The last time I had them on with nothing more than lipstick, they turned the soon to be ex off, so I have put them away in a shoebox. They will however, be making the trip to England! LOL

Know this one well, have just looked around and can see 6 pairs in the lounge alone and I know there are some of the landing and plenty in the hallway and some by back door, only two pairs are mine, the wellies by back door and the ones I took off earlier in the hallway. I think it is a teenage girl thing, shoes and handbags. I personally have a few pairs in the bottom of my wardrobe for going out but most days are either in my work shoes or low heeled boots. If shoes are in good enough condition when I'm fed up with them will pass them on or donate to charity, if not I'll sling them. Ellie :D

I am very much into shoes...and have too many pairs of shoes. My husband teases me all the time saying that I have more shoes than clothes. I have different pairs for different attires....saris need a bit of heel...and pretty indian ones....the salwars...hmmm...depends...for daily wear I prefer pretty flats....and if it's an occassion, I need heels. then I have the ones I wear to work...then I have my sneakers to go with my jeans....then a few pairs that I get when it catches my fancy. I sometimes give away old shoes....but most of them I have with me.

I am not surprised at how many shoes your relative has ..you know we had this first lady here in our country and she had hundreds...lol..I wouldn't waste money on so much. I only have 3 shoes..a boot..a rubber shoes..and an ed hardy shoes. I well mostly nice slippers or sandals.

I have the very basic when it comes to clothes and such and especially shoes. I get either black or white and one of each style and color. For instance, I will have a black and white pair of heels, flats, boots, and sandals. That is ideal for me. I do not like a whole lot of shoes. I can only wear one pair at a time anyway. Most of the time when I am done with my shoes, the are ready for the trash. I take very good care of my shoes, so once they go, they are really gone.

I have 2 pairs of shoes - the old pair and the new pair. the new pair I got mostly from a christmas present from the family - $100 so I only had to pay an additional $40 to get the shoes Have I mentioned that I have a LOT of problems with my feet?

LOl p1key darlin I can feel your frustration through the screen! I am not shoe obsessed thankfully (I save that for pyjamas) especially now as I can only wear flat shoes! I have some boots and shoes in my wardrobe upstairs that I cannot bear to throw away as I am hopeful I will be able to wear shoes with heels again at some point in the future! I have 2 pairs of trainers, a pair of black shoes and a pair of white shoes oh yeah and a pair of flat brown shoes I got for my nieces wedding last year but they are in the wardrobe out of the way too! When I was younger I used to spend a lot of money on shoes but I don't do that anymore! My daughters school shoes cost over £50 but I had to get her properly fitted as she was wearing orthotic insoles! Other than that I wouldn't pay that much for shoes - specially as my family are all very hard on shoes! xxx

i only have a couple of pairs of shoes i wear.i will spend good money on a pair of shoes as i am hard on shoes and the cheap ones don't last me long.i would spend up to $100.00 on a good pair of colorados which are comfortable,but last me years.cheers sue

If I could afford a bunch of shoes and boots I would buy them every day. :) Seeing as I'm a student with 2 kids I can't. I do have special shoes or boots when I go out and some gym shoes and Birkenstock clogs which I'm addicted. All in all I have about 10 pairs of shoes total which isn't a lot for a woman. I'm due for some new ones when I get a little more cash.

At the oment there are three pairs of my shoes on the kitchen floor.....one on top of each other!!...im not a big shoe person ...i tend to go for flatties for comfort...but i do like to have leather shoes as they are comfy on the feet!!!!..but i try to get them in the sales.....a maximum of £20...a time..but then a good pair will last me for ages!!i dont have old ones as such..because by the time ive worn them,,,they are well worn out!!!....then they go for garden shoes..or dog walking shoes...then finally they end up in the bin...

I really love shoe, I even regret i left all my nice shoes in the Philippines..Its very expensive here in the USA...I just have 4 pairs this time..I usually give my old one!!

I love shoes but don't really own that many LOL. I have one pair of sneakers still in good condition, 2 pairs of flat shoes which I wear most of the time I'm out and about, 1 heel boot, 1 dress shoe and several jandals/sandals for summer. The most I have ever spent on shoes was $70 and that was for my sneakers that were on sale. I don't think I have ever bought a pair of shoes over $100. My son has more shoes than me though. I have given his old ones away to family overseas.

*guilty look* I own over 40 pairs of shoes. 3 or 4 pairs are for work and the rest are for going out. 10 of the pairs are to wear with Indian clothes and are not practical to wear down the pub as they are too dressy but they are in colours to match my glitziest Indian outfits. They cost anything from £5 for the cheapest up to £60 or £70 but I rarely spend that much on a pair of shoes. My husband on the other hand has about 5 or 6 pairs of shoes/boots at the most and the cheapest pair cost £150 and the most expensive about £400 - he's a bit of a designer victim and only buys clothes or shoes with famous names. I think he has a pair of Birkenstock sandals for the summer which were really cheap (for him) at £35! I am not bothered about brands, as long as I like the look of shoes and they go with my outfits I will buy/wear them! Old shoes I tend to throw out if they're really worn out or give them to charity if they still have some wear in them :)

Wwell in my house, i think there are a numerous no. of shoes, and most of them belongs to my father, and a few of them belongs to me lolz, and i never throw my shoes out of my home, insttead of that i just give them to some charity or some beggers... Cheers!!!

I have the most shoes in our household. My husband has a pair of smart black shoes for work, a pair of brown boots and a pair of casual black boots as well as trainers for the gym (he also has two old pairs of shoes which need to go!). The children have one pair of shoes, one pair of wellies and one pair of slippers each. I have one pair of black court shoes, a pair of suede slip ons, a pair of blue canvas pumps, a pair of black boots, some black trainers and slippers. My husband spends a lot on shoes/boots but gets good quality that will last. I tend to buy a good all round shoe when my last pair wear out my smarter shoes are just worn when the occasion necessitates.

I have 3 pairs of shoes.I just don't have the need for any more.When I do buy shoes I catch them on sale.I don't see spending a lot of money to make your feet look that nice.I worry about the rest of me more so no one will care what my feet looks like or what shoes I have on.;)
