Refugee 7 Report post Posted November 21, 2010 Do you have a shoe fetish? How often do you buy new shoes? Do you ever get rid of a pair of shoes? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WildflowerNJ 136 Report post Posted November 21, 2010 Not really....I buy shoes when I need them or want something different. Just bought 3 new pairs of boots. One, a pair of Wellies from LL Bean, a cool black high boot to wear in the city when it snows/rains and another boot that is practical in the snow here. It seems the only shoes I get rid of are slippers and my everyday shoes.....for the house and yard...they get the most wear. I have a pair of Etienne Aigner high heels I bought is the early 80's...I still wear them when I go out. They are beautiful and so well made. Remember when people had shoe shine kits? I wish I still had my Dad's....it was a little box with all the brushes and different color polishes. I have a few but no box....I should make one up. I guess some people now just throw away shoes.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AngelDream 16 Report post Posted November 21, 2010 Same here, just buy when I need them and throw out the old ones....doing good right now, have plenty of everything. I love tenny shoes tho, have several 609 New Balance shoes that I wear everyday and high heel boots and flats that I wear for going out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Echosoftom 3 Report post Posted November 21, 2010 I used to be a shoe horse. Although, every now and then I have fetish flashbacks. For instance, I sure wish I wore Barb's (Magnolia) shoe size. If I did, she'd be without a certain pair of shoes I saw her in a couple of weeks ago. But for the most part I go for comfort. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Magnolia 171 Report post Posted November 21, 2010 ^ I KNOW! I LOVE those shoes! The photographer took a picture of them (well, I asked him to, LOL) so I'll post it when we get the pix back. I wish I had more places to wear them, though! I'm in flip-flops most often around here or doing errands. Boots when it's cold or rainy and then my running shoes. Those wear out most often so I replace them about twice a year usually. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pawie 6 Report post Posted November 21, 2010 Far from it. I go with the rest of you. Buy when I need a pair and throw them away when they are worn out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Refugee 7 Report post Posted November 21, 2010 I'm simple, I HATE shoes. I wish I could go barefoot all the time, lol. The only pair of shoes I really wear out, is my work shoes. I buy at least 3 pairs a year. I'm on my feet constantly at work, so comfort is first and foremost. So happy we can wear nice athletic shoes now for work. I have two pairs of New Balances that I switched back and forth with for work. As for the rest of the time, I am in sandals. I am very picky about my sandals. I buy Mephisto's. I have two black pair and one white pair. They last forever. If my shoes are worn and start to hurt my feet, they go in the trash. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Liberty 191 Report post Posted November 21, 2010 (edited) I like shoes, but I don't have a fetish. I have my ankle high gogoboots. and I have some tan cowboy boots like Tom wore in the seventies... yes, that high. But I'm mostly a converse sneaker person. I hace some suede boots that are brown--very comfey. I have some combat boots and some yellow work boots like Tom had in the nineties. I don't buy shoes all the time. But if I'm like "Well, I'm going to have to get these boots if I want to be cool like Tom..." I don't own any running sneakers like Addias or Nike. I'm too cool for that. Mmmmnn... I have some houndstooth print rainboots that I got and they look like a round version of the shoes Tom wore in the mad Hatter video. lol. They are my winter boots. I bought them the same day I bought my rabbit. Lil' Heartbreaker. RIP. Edited November 21, 2010 by tompetty1976 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amber 70 Report post Posted November 21, 2010 Not very fashion-conscious, I'm afraid. Would wear my athletic shoes all the time if I could. Tend to go for comfort. Hate heels. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Wild One, Forever 2 Report post Posted November 22, 2010 I have a running shoe fetish, especially when it comes to racing flats. I find myself going in to running stores and looking at them even when I don't need them. Other kinds of shoes, I don't care. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Softanimal 7 Report post Posted November 22, 2010 I have got several shoes, but I am not a fetish. As long as the shoes are cheap and I don't wear the same pair all the time, then I am satisfied! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
