I tend to stick with teals, blues or blacks for shoes. These are my most recent pair:

And I loves loves loves them!

My day-to-day shoes outside of work are a pair of mint-colored flats. I have a pair of blue converse for the winter when my toes get cold but I have a feeling I'll be wearing my Vans more this years :jess: I also have a million pairs of heels that I do not wear often because I am terrified of destroying them.

Show me your kicks!

I wear the same brand of running shoes as Wendy Davis! Which means I could filibuster in them if I wanted to.

I own exactly one pair of shoes and they look like this:

45375

I buy them from Payless for $30 every three years or so. Great deal. I've been doing this for like the past 12 years.

I do prefer this kind though:

45376

But they were out last time so I had to get the pair you see on top :stare:

I used to be obsessed with sneakers. I had a pair of black suede Etnies with a light purple E, some green & white Gallaz (I think I still have em), a pair of white & orange DC'S, White & pink somethins..... Now, I'm all about flip flops and sandals. I will rock them in the winter. Idgaf. I hate my toes being covered up.... Though my sister will give me her knitted Uggs this year or doom will reign on her for all eternity.

I have one pair of vegan Doc Martens, and one pair of black canvas shoes by the autonomie project (http://www.autonomieproject.com/), which look like chucks but are fair trade. I only buy vegan shoes, so as well as those two I have a pair of tall boots, some wedges and some running shoes, and that's it. There's a pair of oxfords I'm saving for, though.

Besides my pair of flip-flops which I wear pretty exclusively whenever I can get away with it, I own one pair of black basketball shoes and two pairs of dress shoes (one black, one brown). I have no desire or need to own any more shoes.

And this isn't even all of my shoes :jess:

They're typically martial arts shoes, but I wear them everywhere. They aren't great for walking long distances, but they're super comfortable and being martial arts shoes give me a wide range of motion and control with my feet.

My hiking boots look similar to this.

I've gone hiking through near knee high snow, and no snow got into my shoes nor did my feet ever get cold. They're amazing, I've put them through hell and back and they don't look more than a day old.

I also have some tennis shoes that look like... tennis shoes. Couldnt Be arsed to look for a picture of them

I have an assortment of cheapish shoes, because I think I walk stupidly or something and constantly scuff and ruin my kicks. Which means that I go through shoes quickly. However, I have this cute pair of Steve Madden flats with menswear inspired mint green laces that I love. Also I just purchased:

Love Steve Madden. I just recently purchased the Tyeland sneaker from there because my black converses were super run down and some how tighter...I think my feet are getting fat.

Though I only wear sandals in the summertime because fuck socks, my shoes are either business black/brown or cheap as hell sneakers. Since I only buy my shoes at Payless (due to them always carrying my size), my shoes look cheap as hell.

I, too, went from a pair of ratty well-loved New Balance into a pair of fancy Reebok Zigtech. I'm actually almost through the gigantic tread on the front of the right foot though. Insanity!

Reebok doesn't sell the color I got last year any more, so I can't pull a photo off the internet. :3

It's mostly a support thing. You know you've had your shoes too long when they start to show more wear on one side of the heel over the other. Seriously, at least once a year get new shoes! Your feet will thank you for it!
