If you are asking how many pairs of shoes I own, my only response can be...too many to count. I do wear them all though!

You mean shoes? One pair of sneakers, one pair of dress shoes. Socks, I have no idea. Whatever works for me.

Mick, 30

...Um, about 15, I think?...(only half of which I actively wear on a regular basis.)

Kim, 30

Brooke, 16

I have a pair of winter shoes, sandals for the rest of the year, running shoes, lined boots, and duck boots.

Reba, 50

Women around the world will never understand this but just four not including slippers. I don't buy another pair till the old ones wear out. Atypical I suppose...but don't ask me how much clothes I have, and I never feel like I have enough.

Fisch, 45
Preston

Probaby around 15 pairs of shoes. It would be more if I had any money, I am a bit of a shoe freak.

Maggie, 20
Sandwich
, IL   USA

I own at least 4 dozen pair of footware maybe even more. I have every color and style available. I hate to get rid of any as I never know when I may need tham to go somewhere special. It is really kind of silly. But I just can't throw them away or get rid of any.

Marci, 55
Diamond

TONS! But I really only wear two pair all the time. My black Doc Martens & my brown Doc Martens.

Heidi, 26

Too many to count!!

Sarah J.
Jones, MO  USA

two or three, although one of them(the ugly, crappy sneakers I'm wearing now, as I write this) should be thrown out and replaced soon. . .

mothmc, 36

5 - 2 pairs of trainers, 1 pair of platform boots (for school), 1 pair of thigh-length platform boots in the "Libby" style (for pretty much any occasion), and 1 pair of expensive high heels (for when I need to look respectable).

Shanna, 15

Who knows, too many to count. My husband can't understand, you only have two feet, how many shoes do you need? JOKE: What's the difference between a man and a woman? A man can walk by a shoe store. 'Nuff said.

Janet, 42

Footware--like shoe horns? Sorry, I'm an English major. Anyway, I have many pairs of footWEAR, and since they're in different towns I can't really count 'em all. Besides, I don't know if my flaming cowgirl boots have come yet, so I don't know whether to count them or not.

Karen, 21
Marshelltown/Ames

Not as many as most women. I probably have 6 pairs of winter shoes right now. I really only wear 3 pairs (not including my tennis shoes) on a regular basis. And they are all black! I'm a very boring, conservative shoe purchaser.

Susan, 31
