I like shoes that don't slip when I climb a log. They also have to be a wide, such as 13W nike. I like a solid arch because I tend to use the hard plastic as a grip on brick edges and such. Needless to say, my shoes don't usually last very long. I like Doc Martens boots (that's as fashionable as I get) but sometimes they really kill my arch.
I have some dress shoes for interviews, maybe 3 pair, and 3 pairs I really wear. I have some sandals that, surprisingly, have lasted me 10 years, including several summers working in the rice fields. They don't make 'em like they used to LOL. So let's see I have, say, 8 pairs of shoes for whatever.
My wife has about 30. She even just hauled a 30 gallon trash bag off to goodwill FULL of shoes. They are everywhere. It's pure chaos. I want to die. If they don't kill me first.
