    Just curious, what kind of shoes do you wear? (Since you guys are posting funny topics today like, who invented beer, What's your worst favorite movie, etc...why not ask about shoes?) ;P

    I wear what ever shoes happen to be on the top of the pile in my closet that morning. The range runs from steel-toed boots to running shoes, through nice Oxfords to bullhide Wellington cowboy boots. It doesn't matter if both come from the same pair - I rarely have time to look down, and couldn't care less what others see. I'm busy doing stuff...

          I would guess that is short for "man purse". While you're at it, you should try on a bro (bra for a man).

            New Balance 1123[^]. I've worn this shoe, and its predecessor models, for over ten years. And yes, I do wear it all the time. I run in the newest pair, the next older pair are my 'walking around' shoes, the ones after that are yard shoes, and if they have any life left, the last pair are used for resealing the driveway. After that, they're retired with full military honors by the local haz-mat team.

                    I am, at this moment, wearing Jimmy Choo platform slingback peep toe pumps in camel. With an ivory wool pencil skirt and a cherry red three quarter sleeve ribbed cashmere turtleneck. I love dressing for work!!!

                          Ugly Nike shoes I only bought not to wear down my nice ones. These I use to work, nobody looks under my desk to see if my shoes are pretty. And I don't really care if they look, I only care when I'm looking for a girl.

                            Skechers Gators (sadly no longer made), like walking on pillows and are slip-ons. I regret being a snob about the choice of garish colors they had. I bought blue ones and then went online to order black ones. After finding how greate they were, I found they had also disappeared from the shelves and online. (sigh)

                              Unfortunately, since I have to be in the office, leather laceups. I wear Borns outside work - super comfortable. Those of you who have to go to the office, what do you wear?

                                Doc Martin boots with 11 eyelets, steel toes and extra thick soles so they'll hopefully last more than a year of biking 42 miles each way every day. Altho it is looking likely they will last cause the bike's in the shop again and i don't have the cash to fix it and i'm not sure it's worth it if i did.

                                  For work: SAS (San Antonio Shoes) - most comfortable shoes I have ever, ever worn. Otherwise: New Balance - because they come in wide widths (I could have been a hobbit in a former life) At home: barefoot (hobbit reference again?)

Only one colleague has ever noticed - another military vet - that my footwear wasn't like everyone else. These are strictly for in-office wear.

                                        :confused: Do you a FIFO closet or something? I would expect that whatever you threw in there the previous night would be on top, but if you have managed to turn your stack into some other kind of structure..... kudos!

                                          I started wearing Klogs when I was employed as a phlebotomist, and I liked them so much, they're all I wear now (unless I have good reason to wear a pair that has something behind the heel. They're comfortable, they slip on and off easily enough for laziness, but not so easy that they fall of while I'm walking, and they are durable. Seriously, durable. I had my first pair for, like, five years before I had to replace them. Not because they fell apart - they simply don't do that! - but because I had worn a hole clear through the sole because I wear them all the time!
