    sneaker thread? / men's boot thread?

    channeling my best omahadesigns impression...

    how many pairs of shoes do you wear / rotate through regularly?
    sneakers?
    leisure / casual?
    chukkas / boots?
    dress shoes?

    currently sitting on six dress casual sneakers to take me into fall.
    white leather vans x 2
    gray canvas vans x 1
    white leather ecco x 1
    gray perf leather uno camper x 1
    white gray brown leather twins camper x 1

    haven't worn chukkas in a few years, missing a good pair. any suggestions? looking for a black and / or brown

    my oliberte boots are a chore going on and coming off so they're more of an all day cold weather boot one or two months out of the year

    just chucked some dead campers, adidas, fly london, kenneth cole reaction. kept a pair of original penguin, but they're narrow, I rarely wear them

    hey dudes, anything by kanye, or those big red rubber boots need not apply

    • I basically wear one pair of shoes at a time, depending upon the season. I have multiples of the same clothing theme which I work throughNairn
    • ... essentially I just have a continuous uniform which I modify depending upon temperature. All my clothes are either blue or green.Nairn
    • I'm on holiday at the moment, so have my winter boots, along with last summer's sneakers and a pair of flip flops. Jeans, blue shorts, blue teesNairn
    • ...and I STILL think I have too many clothes and want to pare down.Nairn
    • about 10 pairs (incl. olibertes bizarely) usually solovair astronauts or one of two pairs of sauconey jazz 81's (incredibly well made), tretorn chelseas forkingsteven
    • walking the dog, and a few pairs of crepe souled clarks and sebagos that never get worn because the weather here rarely permits.kingsteven
    • old pair of adidas zx for cutting the grass, and another pair of saucony's i just wear runningkingsteven
    • nairn, i employ a similar approach. i need to keep my shoes fresh, though. if I wear a pair too often, they get funky. #isweatimbecile
    • kingsteven, that astronaut is a nice boot, loving the variations. I've heard saucony are wider than new balance so that may be worth a look for me.imbecile
    • 6 pairs of leather boots, 2 of textile boots, 3 of sneakers*, 2 of flip-flops, 2 of espadrilles, 1 of Roman flip flops... * I'm going to throw 3 pairs tomorrowOBBTKN
    • I’ve managed to get it down to one pair each of nice tall boots, strapped chelsea boots, paratrooper boots, and house ‘flopsscarabin
    • One pair of New Balance work shoes, and one pair of New Balance sneakers when I'm not at work..Akagiyama
    • I've got too many for a side note. I'd better speak to a grown up about it.MrT
    • This is a safe space, take all the notes you need.imbecile
    • 3 pairs which I use actively (at least once a week), 8 pairs stored in the atticdrgs
