Too many. Aldo and Nike get so much of my paychecks.

No, because Jordans are usually ugly as sin for most part. I like the trainers but that's about it. I also don't have the money to collect shoes.

I know there are people who collect shoes and it seems like they all collect Nike, but yeah I would imagine its not a cheap hobby.

2 pair of nikes. 1 pair of sperrys. 1 pair of Columbia slip-ons

Wear the nikes to the gym and the sperrys/slip-ons pretty much everywhere else

The intense infatuation with Jordan's is something I'll never understand. Guys at work have tried to tell me it's a cultural/social thing which still dosent justify paying 250$ for shoes you're going to wear a handful of times. I've paid out the arse for several pairs of sunglasses though so to each his own

Thread hijack. OweO, drop your email in the fantasy thread. Two spots remaining and I'd like to go ahead and get everyone set up. I switched to ESPN just for you

I have a bunch of shoes and boots cuz I never get rid of any......unless they are falling apart. Even then I might keep them for yard work, painting, etc. For general wear I have:

4 pair of chuck taylors, 1 pair I bought in 1985 and they are still in very good condition.
Nice work boots for wearing to meetings or out to eat/bar in the winter.
Nice light weight dress boots.
Dress shoes
Work boots...for manual labor stuff around the house.
2 pair of cheap cowboy boots I never wear.
Running shoes....New Balance I don't really like.
Old running shoes....Scott brand....really liked these but are too worn out to run in anymore.
Various old running shoes....4 or 5 pair.
Tevas
Crocs I use like slippers....strictly wear around the house.
And then I have my old running shoes from the late 70s and early 80s. I have a pair of 1979 Nike LDVs, 1978 Arthur Lydiard Steeplechase spikes, 1980 addias marathons, 1979 Tiger Onitsuka racing flats and some other old Brooks, New Balance. They are all in a box in the attic. I need to donate them to a museum.

Snobbish and wealthy Joanna Stayton (Goldie Hawn) is living a life of leisure with her husband, Grant (Edward Herrmann), when she falls off their yacht and suffers amnesia. Grant takes the opportunity to rid himself of the demanding Joanna -- but Dean (Kurt Russell), a widowed carpenter with four kids who once worked for Joanna, arrives and claims she's his wife. Joanna can't remember her past identity, but has trouble believing that she was ever meant to be a working-class mother of four.

I have about 15 pairs, but wear only about 4 of them. I need to get rid of some so I can buy some more.
