I'm not really into shoes... I buy based on overall utility and whether or not it's a "classic" style that I don't have to worry about matching/going out of fashion, since I don't really pay attention to those things. E.g. Tall, black leather boots go well with a lot of things and are always in style, so I stick with those. I wear one pair out until they're totally dead, then buy the exact same pair again.
The only shoes that I splash out on, and take a REALLY LONG TIME to decide on, are my hiking boots, running shoes, ski boots, rock-climbing shoes, etc. Shoes that are good for something, basically... that have very specific uses, and have to fit me perfectly to do what they're meant to do. I don't really care what they look like (though I tend to like darker colors, for less cleaning pain), as long as they are functional and do their job for me.
