I have a ton, I tend to buy shoes every few months and never get rid of the old ones.

-4 pairs of really nice black/brown dress shoes for work
-1 pair of basketball shoes
-1 pair of cleets
-1 pair of old asics for the yard
-1 pair of Ralph Lauren Polo boots, 8 years old and still like new
-1 pair of Risto weight lifting shoes
-1 pair of motorcycle boots
-1 pair of steel toe Red Wings for construction days
-1 pair of Nike running shoes
-1 pair of sandals
-1 pair of casual slip on dress shoes
-1 pair of Buck Master hunting boots

Now that i think about it, i have too many pairs of shoes. :-\

I worked for a guy who honestly had well over 200 pairs of "just" basketball shoes. His guest bedroom had probably 50 boxes of shoes that he hadn't even worn yet.

That's just overkill, lol. Did he actually buy them or just get them for free because he's an athlete or something?

i have one expensive nice pair of black tommi hillfiger shoes i only wear when i know i dont go out cause the floors
 are disgusting inside bars clubs, the next day you can throw them away.

If forgot to mention club/bar/dancing shoes.  I'm old so I don't cut the rug much anymore... I wear my "every day non-gym shoes" to bars, clubs, or sporting events.  I also forgot to add some kind of hiking/camping boots.  So that's about 6 pairs.

No he bought them at full price, he was obsessed with basketball shoes and he didn't even play basketball. He was in his late 30's with a large family, i never understood it. As soon as a new pair of the latest "hyped" shoe was released, he was wearing it.

How many pairs of shoes should a man have?

Gym shoes (running, tennis, b-ball, other sports)
Dress shoes (black)
Dress shoes (brown)
Beach shoes (sandals, flip flops)
Every day non-gym shoes

no, any real GUY would know that running, basketball, and "other sports" like hiking and hunting, require different shoes.

If that is a swipe at me, you will have to try a lot harder.  Where I come from hiking and hunting are hobbies not sports.  In any case, I'm willing to wager that I could beat you at any individual sport you can name.  With a better work ethic, taller, smarter, and more educated, I could probably pull more pussy than you (if I wanted to) and more cock too.  So, who is the "real GUY" and who is the poser?  There are several getbiggers that are in my league, but you are not among them.  In fact, you sound like another fatpanda . . . and we all know how that ended.  ::)

Does a dude need more than 5 pairs of shoes?

Do you have a favorite pair of shoes?  For years, I kept my old pair of Nike Meadow Supreme shoes long after they were usable because they were so comfortable I just could not throw them away.  I wore them when I washed the car or did other grunt work.  Best pair of shoes ever!  Eventually, years later, I tired to buy another pair but that model was discontinued.  :'(
Try Ebay. I guarantee you will probably find a brand new pair of those Nikes in your size.

A man, or a woman for that matter, should have as many shoes as he or she chooses to have, no more, no less.
