So beautiful. Yet again, Mephisto shows the world how comfortable shoes are done.

I also found it harder than I expected to find a good selection of Birkenstocks. I did eventually find a store and bought a pair of the Gizeh sandals in black.

I have the same Birks but with a back strap. I really like them and don't feel too dorky in them.

Love the Mephistos.

I hate to taint all the cute shoes in this thread, but I recently bought a pair of these Z-Coil shoes.

I bought them for my trip to Disneyland that's coming up in couple of weeks. They're supposed to help with posture, leg pain, back pain, and most of all...foot pain. (My heels usually kill after the first day or two of walking around the park.)

I've worn them now for a couple of days to get them worn-in, but good God their not pretty.

Has anyone owned (or worn) a pair of these shoes?

Oh, I guess I should say that my store was out of the white in my size, so I have the black tennis shoes. What we do for comfort, right?!

kels.

Disneyland is a judgement-free zone. I hope your shoes help you.

I don't know what possessed me to entre a shoe thread.

I own four pairs of shoes. K-swiss classics, some high tops, a pair of brown dress shoes, and a pair of black dress shoes. I don't count my one pair of flip flops. Am I missing something about being excited over shoes? I see them as a tool for when I need them, not as something that I need a lot of.

Is this a female thing? My wife and 14 year old obsess on shoes. I've never understood it.

I now own those shoes. I found the Converse ones on sale at Kohl's. Yay me!

I tossed a pair of Vans that were completely shredded on the inside. I need to do that with my black Converse as well. They aren't fine, they hurt my feet!

I think I have 44 pairs of shoes, counting flip flops.

I have about 20 pair myself...

But for awhile I was getting a subscription to some urban men's mag and it was filled with adds for shoes and hoodies - so perhaps it's cultural and not just gender.

I have no idea how many pairs of shoes I own.

Too many to count?

Might as well count the stars in the sky, that's where I'm at. Death, taxes, gaining weight, and buying shoes are life's constants. Of those, only two are any fun.
