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.

Yep I have too many (although I don't think I'm at 17), in order of time spent wearing:

Smart black work shoes Slippers Crossover walking shoe/trainers Casual trainers Gym trainers Outdoor working shoes Golf shoes Proper hiking boots Wellies Indoor football shoes Astro football shoes

I go through the work shoes probably 1 pair every 2 years or so. Slippers last maybe 12 months max, although I do wear them for jobs around the house. Everything else just lasts until it falls apart and gets replaced.

I think it's fair to say that I prioritise function over form - maybe this is the wrong forum for me, but you did ask the question!
