The front page poll got me thinking...
I own:
1 pair [url=
Doc Martin boots[/url] (for work and general wear)
1 pair [url=
Vans[/url] (for work and general wear)
1 pair Karrimor 'approach' shoes (for walking and bike riding)
1 pair [url= http://instagram.com/p/heKRgnt-6x/ ]Salomon running shoes[/url] (for running)
1 pair flip-flops (for summer)
Apparently, this isn't very many. How many pairs of shoes do you own?
...and this is why I stay off the front page.
Anything that leads to shoe polls, is witchcraft.
1 pair of trainers for work/general
1 pair of black leather shoes for weddings etc
1 pair of MTB shoes
1 pair of road shoes
1 pair of walking boots
2 pairs of flip flops (do they count as shoes?)
You must be a hip teacher at the college - DMs for work!!!! How many laces???
Only one pair of running shoes?????? Forget n+1, you need more running shoes than that!
1 winter cycling boots
1 summer cycling boots
1 roadie cycling shoes
1 pair of walking trainers
1 pair of winter walking boots
1 pair of work shoes
1 pair of wellies - I dont recall ever wearing these but must have
1 pair of sandals for that one warm day we get each year
1 pair of slippers - do they count?
Loads, 3 pairs cycling, 3 running, 3 formal, various trainers/casual/walking.
1 pair of barbour brouges, without the brogue front
1 pair of DM dealers
1 pair of scarpa rangers
1 pair of teva links
I did have some 5/10 exums until 1 hour ago, and the sole fell off.
Too many...
I'm a big girl when it comes to shoes, I've got stacks. I couldn't even begin to list them (but I'll do an overview) : mostly trainers - loads of Nike Air and Jordan variants throughout the years, numerous Etnies skate shoes, different versions of Vans, Adidas shell-toes. Magnum army boots, Timberland boots, CAT boots. Five ten Impact lo's for riding. There's more but that'll do for now
EDIT: Wish I could find some Vans Gravels to add to the list, fed up with my monstrously chunky Five Tens that hold more water than the Hoover Dam
I have about 60 pairs 😀
1 pair of trainers
1 pair of converse
1 pair of work shoes
1 pair of boots
1 pair of mtb flat shoes
1 pair of mtb spds
1 pair of road shoes
1 pair of walking boots
1 pair of wellies
That's loads more than I thought!
1 Formal
2 cycling
1 work (approach shoes)
1 approach shoes (actual approach shoes)
5 pairs of walking boots (1 current summer, 1 current winter, 3 old knackered pairs I refuse to get rid of, used on the allotment, ghyll scrambling etc.)
1 sandals
2 climbing shoes
1 pair running shoes
so - 14 pairs in all, my wife has about the same, but none of them are much use for anything…where as mine all have pretty specific uses.
You must be a hip teacher at the college - DMs for work!!!! How many laces???
They're not proper DMs, they're [url=
ones with a slightly padded ankle and just 4 holes[/url]. But I am a hip teacher, obviously 🙂
At least one member of staff has been known to wear Vibram 5-fingers for work 🙂
Only one pair of running shoes?????? Forget n+1, you need more running shoes than that!
I don't run enough to justify multiple trainers. I've just realised that I own 5 bikes and 5 pairs of shoes; that must be some sort of cosmic balance, right?
More than I thought
4 pairs of leather shoes for work (although I only wear one pair and ignore the other ones)
1 Pair of walking boots
1 pair of Doc Martins (black eight tie)
2 pairs of Merrill outdoor trainer things
1 pair of Asics running shoes
1 Pair of Nike trainers
1 Pair of ghillie brogues for wearing with kilt
2 Pairs of Specialized MTB Shoe
1 Pair of Diadora MTB shoes
1 Pair Shimano flat pedal shoes
Still loads less than my wife "Imelda" though!

got a bunch of other old shoes kicking about in the bottom of wardrobe coz I'm a hoarder but v.v.rarely used.
oh if we're doing all footwear then I have 2 pairs of snowboard boots and 1 pair of skates too
I don't really own many clothes either; I'm wearing my only pair of jeans, which I wear all day every day.
far too many pairs of cycling shoes, although most are just stuck in a box in the cellar because after trying them for a month or two I decided I didn't like them.
If I count the contents of the box.
