If I had the funds I would be spending much much more and all mostly purchased from Howcool.com or the suprise suprise shops along oxford st. Oooppps forgot to mention have just ordered today from Howcool the Pleaser Mary Jane pump with 6 inches with the red patent heel and black patent shoe and 2 front red straps! Couldnt resist!

Too many to count. Being a size 7 UK is a blessing and a curse because I know that any shoes I see on the high st will definitely fit me. Probably well over 100 pairs between my girlfriend and I (we both have the same size feet). There are shoes everywhere in our flat. Cheers, Ben

7 now. More (pairs and variety) soon. All stiletto heeled shoes. A pair of 4" L'Heroux, elongated toe, black patent pump. A pair of 4 1/2" black pointy-toe pumps with buckle design on toe-box. A Pair of 4", pointy toe, dark brown sling-backs. A Pair of 5" (1/2" platform) red-mesh, peep-toe pumps with brown/wood colored heel and platform. A pair of 5 1/2" (1/2" platform) black patent, clear heeled sandals. A pair of 5 1/2" black D'Orsay pumps. A pair of 6" Pleaser Domina, again, black patent. Not much variety...I know...but working on that!

Walking in ultra-highs because it's exciting...and it is!!

u lucky b'stard! Only have about 40 prs myself and soulmate will only let me have hers when she's bored with them, same size too...

If you have the same size feet why not share shoes? I find it a bit like having your own knife and fork set each and not just using whatever is in the drawer.

I genuinely don't know. I once counted just over 400 pairs but that was a long time ago and since then I went through a phase where I was adding about 4 or 5 pairs a week. I have just about stopped buying now, partly through lack of funds and partly because I rarely see a pair I don't already own of a similar design..

Last I checked, about 35 pairs; pumps, wedge sandals, stiletto sandals, a few platforms, 2 pairs of boots, and couple of espadrilles. What's nice is having a walk-in closet now so I can have them out instead of stashed in a footlocker.

Hello, everyone! :smile:

70 +.

Few pumps, most of them ankle strap stiletto sandals.

DeSalto

Almost the same here, except for the "70+" part... :thumbsup: I have around 20 pairs, with 3 pumps, 3 slides and the rest ankle strap sandals (my favorites, by the way).

If the high heel shoe fits, wear it!

Hello, everyone! :smile:

Hey Kennard. Have you got a good photo of the shoes in your Avatar? I really like the look of them... Where are they from?

Regards,

Ben

Unfortunately, at the moment I don't have any better pics, just the ones from my original post (Fucsia Sandals). Once I have more free time, I'll try to take some new pictures of all my heels, using the digital camera I bought a few months ago. If the conditions allow, I might even put up a video or two. :thumbsup:

As DeSalto mentioned on another thread (see here), these are from a brazilian manufacturer called Datelli. Check out their web site, they're showcasing the Winter 2008 collection, with some interesting models, like the ones below.

Probably well over 100 pairs. If the wife wore the same size as I do the count would be much higher. While I wear a common size (10) she only wears a 6!! You guys who can swap with your mates are so lucky!!!!

If the shoe fits-buy it!!!!!!

I haven't really counted. But if I count my boots i'm probably around 10 pairs or so. And i'm in your boat docs. I take a size 9 or 10 depending on the shoe or boot

Probably close to 200 pair. Like Dr. Shoe, I only buy something that is unique and high quality of a style I do not already own. Am lucky we have a second hand store where shoes are $3.50 and I wear size 9-1/2 - 11. It is not unusual for me to buy 2 or 3 pair at a time. I always wear women's shoes and have since high school (1966). Flats, heels, sandals, boots, winter boots, athletic shoes, and even safety boots.

Hmm...had to do some counting. 9 pairs of (black, brown, gray) cowboy boots that range from 2.5" to 3.5" heels. All except for two are knee high. 1 pair 3.5" black boots that look like the ones in my avatar. 1 pair 4" blade heel black knee boots. 1 pair each of black 4" and 5" stiletto ankle strap pumps. 1 pair of 3" ankle strap wedge sandals. I'm currently wearing the sandals right now.
