still learning the board so i thought i would open up a fun topic .. shoes! my fav are a mix of casual flats /wedges love strappy shoes , anyone else?

Probably Mary Jane style flats. Nice, easy, comfortable, and they don't make me taller. I love wedges and heels and whatnot, but they make me too tall and I am already really self conscious.

I like tall boots too, something about them is just very fun, but not terribly practical.

All of them... really... never met a pair of heels I didn't like. 

I love those little boots that some Mexican girls wear. Do they have a name? Ugh.

ankle boots? there are several kinds ones with cuffs and ones without

I tend to like sandals with a bit of wedge 

Sporting a pair of these right now 

i like those a lot where do you find them ?? they look cute and comfy

I like booties, they can go so great with tights imo

I like sandals and wedges too.  I have cute feet so I like to show them off.  I like heels a lot too.  I'm short (for a male) about average height for a woman so I love wearing heels.  It makes me feel tall.  And sexy too.

I quess my favorite would be Boots, pumps are also fun but I find it hard to walk in them, its also har to find a pair that fit me right.

Vans and cowboy boots in general. Though I only say so because I only own four pairs of shoes... vans, boots, hiking shoes I use as dress shoes, and cleats. My vans are comfy. My boots are awesome because they look good, I don't recommend them for long walking trips though. XD

I can't really stand open-toed shoes. @.@ Maybe sandals, but. Bleh.

I'll never understand this shoe fetish. XD

Doc Martin used to make a steel toed Mary Jane.  It was built like a tank.  One pair, good for life.  Which is not an awesome business model.  Like all Doc Martin stuff you could walk in them all day and your feet never got tired.  I really like simple ballet flats, if they are well made, and few are.   Capezio makes a killer training shoe for dance, as good as your favorite cross-trainer (New Balance for me).

And my Birks, of course.  I'm a hippie, it's Cali, youze gots to have some chanklas and the Huaraches never quite worked for me.

thats cuz your a guy *winks and hugs * guys often dont get the shoe thing 

Converse.

They're comfortable, last a long time, a person can wear them with almost anything, and I know they'll fit me without having to try them on. I like that they come in leather now. The only downside is that they have no real support, but I guess that's what shoe inserts are for.

two out of four brothers in my family only wear fashionable shoes, they're guys who get the shoe thing. youngest one even brought back 4 pairs of them from a school trip to poland, that's what he went shopping for. the other two brothers wear practical shoes

and what about me..? i've one pair of heels that are really comfortable, otherwise i wear flats, or rubber boots when taking walks / working in the forest or fields. now i'm planning to get me some geta, and tengu geta (i'm short, those will give me a chance to look down on others when i wear them)

Perhaps, but the guys I know can go on about boots, work boots, cowboy boots, any boots, all boots like they were Manolo Blahniks.

I like pumps and heels tough i can not wear them as im seven foot tall bearfoot. Plus i have a hard time finding nice shoes that fit.

one pair of my sneakers, I bought them the day before my doggy pasted away so they remind me a lot of her. Plus they look awesome and match everything!

Lol. XD I've met plenty who did get it, but I just don't see it myself. (hats, however, jesus krispies. lol.)

Muffin, I'm stealing your shoes. They look kickass. 

I have five pairs of favorite shoes:

Here, it's the white keds, second from right, I wear these at least once a week, usually with capri jeans


I don't wear these often, I have to be in the mood, these are usually evening shoes obviously, lol


The two sets of Mary Jane's, black and brown, get heavy wear, I love them. Soooo broken in!


It was a toss up for fifth but these are STRONG 5th!
