I think I now have more shoes than my wife. I just bought some Shimano’s biking shoes, bringing my total pairs of shoes up to 7:
- Nunn Bush Dress Shoes: These are the shoes my brother suggested I get as dress shoes. They are dressy, but they are also comfortable for walking. I’ve had them forever, and wear them the least.
- Black shoes with some red: These were some laceless shoes that I used to wear regularly. Now they are dirty and I use them for working around the house.
- Semi-casual black shoes with zippers: These shoes are/were my daily work shoes. They aren’t dress shoes, but they are black so they work for going to the office.
- AVIA tennis/running shoes: These are an inexpensive pair of shoes I bought last year, when I wanted something sportier than my zipper shoes. They’ve been real nice for biking (using toe-clips), and I liked wearing them around the office.
- Brown sandals from India: These are the sandals I wore at my engagement ceremony and wedding and now they are my lounging shoes.
- Even dressier shoes: These were another cheap pair from India (actually the sandals were somewhat expensive). I got them because they were cheap. I plan on leaving these at my office.
- My Shimano SH-MT20 shoes: I took the plunge and bought some Shimano shoes and clip-less pedals.
No, I’m not a shoe-junkie. I really just need the pair of shoes that I can use for working around the house, the biking shoes, and the dress shoes. But now I have a whole bucket of choices for a while. I might store some of them for a while.
