How Many...

[AmyBoz]

...pairs of shoes do you own?

If it's more than 5, I hope you are preparing yourself to start getting rid of some! The bedroom challenge is coming soon!

(I have more than 5, and yes, I will be getting rid of some, right along with you!)

I have about 8 pairs, and I don't think I have enough

Oh, I haven't counted how many shoes I have. I have a bag ready to give away. I think I must have at least 50 pair. You know, a girl must have the proper shoes to fit the season

I'm a minimalist when it comes to shoes or clothing for that matter. I have one pair of running shoes. If I'm invited to a wedding or have to go to a funeral, I'll have to go out and purchase a pair.

[mom2matty]

Yes it is more than 5!

Let me see, I have my every day tennis shoe, "mud shoes", pair of black boots, and a pair of brown boots, and one pair of black dress shoes... I need a pair of cream colored dress shoes.. I never understand why women have sooooo many pairs of shoes. If you wear them ok, but my SIL has about twenty five pair and I have only seen her wear maybe three pair.... Why spend money on shoes you won't wear.. (I know she only wears about three pair because I asked and she said, "You never know when you might need those ones or those or those ....." Give me a break!!!!! She does not work at an office, or anything like that... Sorry RANTING.... Am I bad.... Next subject..

I only have one pair of casual shoes.

[jzkitten]

Yes, I have more than 5. They divided into cool and warm weather shoes. I hope you're going to give us 2 weeks on the bedroom too. It's a lot worse than the living room!

I have 13 pairs and I wear them all during any given season of the year. 1 pair of Winter snow boots, 1 pair of hiking boots, 1 pair of Winter dress boots, 1 pair of wool clogs, 1 pair of leather clogs, 1 pair of suede clogs, 2 pair of Teva sandles, 3 pairs of dress shoes (to go with dresses and skirts), 1 pair of running shoes, 1 pair of cross training shoes. I'm not getting rid of any more. I gave away 8 pairs this year (that I no longer wear). I only kept the ones I use daily when it's the appropriate season. Also all my shoes are neatly kept and organized in my shoe holder. The leather ones are buffed and polished twice a year to make them last longer.

I'm not participating in the NYNH challenge, but wanted to respond. I have more than 5 pairs of shoes, but I'm not a shoe person at all, so the pairs that I do have are worn regularly within season and until I wear them out. I have 2 pairs of shoes I wear to work ~ 1 brown and 1 black that are worn regulary along with my tennis shoes that I wish I could wear all the time. I also have a pair of boots, house shoes, and some flipflops for summertime.
Now, don't ask me about how many purses I own. That's my weakness!

I have not counted them but I know I have way over 5 prs of shoes, I'm not in the challenge either, but I will try to get rid of a couple pairs

[bamamomto4]

Just guessing,I'd say 15. And no I dont wear them all. We are in the process right now of building me some shoe shelves in the closet,and I will be giving some away!!

[guest7]

1 pr clogs and 1 pr sneakers I use regularly...3 prs dress shoes if I ever need them. Sandles for summer.. flipflops for the spa... Do I HAVE to get rid of them? old sneeks for the gardening. And my good ole trusty slippers!!
