Red Wings are great! I believe mine are 6 years old, but i only wear them a few times a month when i go to job sites. When i worked in construction that seemed to be what everyone had in the oil patch.
For dress shoes, Johnston and Murphy, expensive but they last forever.
I'm a shoe fanatic, i have at least 20 pairs of shoes.
Me too. The only time I'll wear trainers (or 'sneakers') is in a gym or when I'm running. I've got suede Oxfords, patent Oxfords, shell cordovan Derbys handmade in Italy, Chelsea boots, military boots, handmade loafers, etc. I sound like a bender but I view them as works of art and find a lot of aesthetic value in them.
