I have 17 pairs. That sounds like a lot but I could go for a couple more pairs if I'm being honest. Like a third of them are Converse, too; I can't help myself.

Most years I don't buy any shoes, and I take good care of them and rotate them out, so they last me five years or more. I think I have three dressy pairs, two athletic pairs, and three regular cool guy shoes, and two sandals/flipflops. I feel like it's too many.

I have a pair coming up on at least a decade old at this point which astounds me since they're not a "nice" boot and only cost me about $100. I'm sure if I bought the same boot today I'd be disappointed in the drop-off in quality...

Probably!

I have shoemakers in my family and they always make fun of my factory made shoes. They resole and fix their shoes for years and years.
