I have a pair of Nike Dunks for everyday, a pair of work out shoes and 2 dress shoes (black and brown). Men don't need anything else.
Got a tip for us?

Well, this isn't my full collection, just the ones that I bought so far this academic year while at college.
If I had it my way I'de just have one pair of converse for everything

reminds me of a cute story
before i worked in a shoe store for one christmas season, i belived women were picky with shoes...after working and selling to both, i learned otherwise
many men really only have, besides a dress pair for weddings and funerals, just one pair of shoes so they want to find the right and perfect pair...this makes them really difficult customers
not knowing much about fashion, many of these guys get demanding and want something that, besides the wedding and funeral attire shoes, can fit everything (and that's really not possible, if you consider hiking, biking, walking, tennis, casual dates, rock climbing, soccor (or football), loafing shoes, shoes for long distance walking, etc
more than once, not only did the male customers get mad at not finding that one all purpose magic shoe, some of these men got violent and mall security got their money's worth with angry male shoe customers, and our mall had a least a half a dozen shoe places
another reason for the macho aggression was that often the wife, mother, or girlfriend was nagging the man to get a new pair of shoes to replace those hole ridden stinky excuses for footwear that they had gotten accustomed to
so if postal workers who get aggressive are said to get postal, what are angry and dangerous male shoe shoppers called

I found this whilst I was transferring photos off my camera, and I think I took it for this thread.

I might buy some more shoes soon though. I sold a few pairs on eBay a while ago, and my collection's a bit meagre now.

- Birkenstock shoes, so good I think I may buy a second pair exactly the same, like an old woman.
- Fred Perry trainers, bought in TK Maxx when my old white PF Flyers were dying a slow and hideous death on a rainy day in Glasgow and I chucked em and put these on. I still miss my lovely PF Flyers though.
- Puma slip-ons, also from TK Maxx. TK Maxx makes shoe decisions for me, which is good. Ooh, £15? They look ok.
- New Balance somethingorothers, for running in. Vile looking, but dead comfy.
- Birkenstock sandals. Same as the shoes, but for when it's warm enough to get my toes out for the lads.

sneaker collecting is a hobby to me. i collect and sell.

yeah i do, but i haven't posted in a while. i think i'm done with sneakers. i wouldn't mind a pair of jordan flips though.
