Would you buy the same shoe with the exact design/colors?

Like the one you have now? Example: you're wearing a purple Chuck Taylor but it's getting old, would you buy the same purple Chuck's or you'd try different brands, colors and designs?

I've bought the same shoe in different colors on many occasions, so that I could coordinate them with whatever I was wearing. Once I bought two pairs of exactly the same thing (same color). It was a buy 1, get 1 free sale. I wore one and put the other away until the first paid was worn out. If I worked in a profession, like nursing, where I had to wear the same type of shoe all the time, I'd probably buy several pairs just so that I could air them out between wearings.

No, unfortunately I'm not a nurse. The shoes that I bought two of the same pairs of were sandals that I liked. I usually buy a new paid at the beginning of summer, and I liked them enough to wear the same ones for two years.

I love shoes a lot but I have never tried buying exactly the same design. maybe the same color but not the same design. No matter how much I would like it I am not going to buy the same one.

I will probably buy the same brand but in a different color. Like for instance I like New Balance brand of shoes, I got a black pair now but when it is time to go get another pair I will get a gray color.

I find that by the time I wear any given shoe out, they don't sell them any more. I have a ton of shoes, and keep on buying. I like to have a wide variety to chose from.

Though I love my trusty old shoes. I do like shopping for new ones. I like to change up the styles and colors from time to time, and just shoe shopping is a hobby of mine. I don't always buy shoes, but love trying them on. LOL. So, I would try to get something different but most likely would go back to the style I have now because I know it's something that fits in to my every day wardrobe.

maybe, if the shoes got worn out, and i need a pair just like that, because it either fits my outfit, or its my favorite color, style or brand.. i might also try different brands, and design, it just depends on my mood, or the outfit that i want to wear the shoe with.

I allways have a pair of black lace up boots with a sturdy, square low heel. They are one of the very common, straight accessoiries I allways want in my wardrobe. If I have the chance I will buy the same ones over and over again. Because this isn't allways possible I will keep looking for something that resembles it. With my other shoes and boots I like variation. Something has to be really nice for me to buy it again, but I would never hassle to buy something again if it was really nice just because I would be repeating myself.

To me shoes are like cars. It's not how they look that counts but whether they do the job they were designed for. I only buy shoes that fit well and support my feet. Just like I only buy cars that will get me from point A to point B. Looks are the last thing I consider.

Will you wear heavy duty combat boots on parties? Hehe.. Kidding!

No, but I do wear sensible but stylish shoes when it is appropriate. I have too much trouble with my back to wear shoes just for how they look. And it is okay to kid me I do have a sense of humor although sometimes it is quite dry.

i don`t do that. Why should i buy the same kind of shoes if there are some maybe much better that appeared when i had thouse old ones.. I don`t see any reason to buy the same colour and the same kind. I will but differet ones. I like to change my style in some months, and i`ll but from shoes to hat all new. So, if i`ll chose another style, i can`t wear the same shows. they will not work.

If it were my favorite item, I probably will, given that it's still out in the market. I collect fountain pens, and the first one I bought was a blue one with green and pink stripes on it. I lost it. Twice. The third time I saw it my ex bought it for me, and that was the one I never lost, which is perfect because they stopped making that design. If it were shoes, however, I probably wouldn't, since fashion tends to change quick.

Yup, but i think sneakers stay in fashion almost permanently.

Hi sexy cha! Hehe, that's quite a difficult choice for some but you didn't seem to have pressure about owning the same shoe.

I never really buy the same design or colors of the same shoes. Once it is old I will scout for the latest design of the same make.

Hello modstar, If I really, really like the product, I don't mind to buy the same product with the same color all over again. But, I experienced buying the same product with the different colors like shoes, handbag and clothes.

Hi Modstar, my answer is no, if I already had a shoes like this, then I won't be buy again with the same design and same colors or different colors, I would like to try others design, colors and brands too. I don't like my shoes always be the same styles.

Hello modstar! I don't think I would be that way. I have some reasonable amount of shoes and all of them have different designs although I would say that I have my favorite. Probably, I would buy the same brand and color but not the same design.

If I loved that shoe, sure. Why not? You do have more than one shoe, right?
