New Shoes - Page 20

scaeagles · 07-09-2008, 11:54 AM

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 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.

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.

Too many to count?

I also wanted to get these Vans, but they seem to be discontinued and no one's got my size left.

But I'm considering these instead:

The first pair screams 1990something. Did you check an actual Vans store or Kohls (for some reason they have randomness when it comes to shoes and styles)?

Really like the 2nd pair.

I tried on a pair of those in classic black. No where near as comfortable as I remember them to be. Much sadness ensued.
