man I thought I was bad, 8 pairs of shoes. #1 = old stinky pair of tennis shoes, use em when I don't wear socks while working in and on the house. #2 good tennis shoes, use them when going out to non formal events. #3 & #4 dress shoes. Use them a couple of times a year when I have to.#5 & 6 are work boots, Redwing slip ons and Danner water proof for when the site is nasty. #7 are tevas for the boat. #8 are sorrels, sub 20 degree weather or snow.
My wife on the other hand has multiples for every condition. I usually toss 6 pairs of her shoes a year, she hasn't noticed yet. Been married for 20 years now. Every time a box shows up at the door for her some things going in the back of my work truck and getting tossed in the dumpster.
It's amazing how many shoes are stock piled in my kids closets and in my garage. Once a year I make a covert sweep and toss numerous pairs.
When I was a kid I had one pair. When they fell apart I got my older brothers.
I bitched about how many clothes and shoes my wife had once, she then asked why I had so many tools in the garage. That's when I kinda got it. She better never toss out my tools though.
