Unless I have miscounted, I think I have about 52 pairs of shoes. This sounds like a sickness. I sold shoes for awhile after I graduated college, so the shoe collection grew considerably. What can I say? I love shoes?

I have 3 pairs of boots, one pair of galoshes... work out shoes... casual shoes... flats... pointy-toed shoes... round-toed shoes... high heels... medium heels... You see how it goes...

If I did more sports, I'd have more shoes.

Rock climbing shoes, rappelling shoes, hang gliding shoes, martial arts shoes I have,

so footwear as it applies to athletics is a must.

I have a few pairs of basketball shoes. I only wear one pair though and when they've bit the dust I'll rotate in the next pair. I have an ox blood, brown, and black pair of dress shoes. A pair of casual dress shoes. Work boots. Hiking boots. A few pairs of slippahs. Some vans slip ons. My Sperrys (my favorite shoes in my closet and usually what I wear everyday-arctic white, they make me feel preppy). A few pairs of running shoes. I also have some lo top Converse All-Stars. 2 pairs of DVS Milans and my all time favorite skate shoe eS Eric Koston's (first pro model-I have owned probably 5 different pairs of these).

I have around 20. When I was in college though I had around 50 to 60. My buying habits when it came to clothes and shoes changed dramatically when I got married and had kids.

Have I mentioned I find your avatar offensive? She's in a library, for crying out loud! What ever happened to no shirt, no shoes?
