as a guy?

I love my shiny brown leather Steve Maddens. There a little bit Mafia gangster without being gaudy. I also like the way the hard soles sound when walking on hard surfaces. Sometimes I avoid my black slacks in order to wear these brown shoes.

That is all, and I'm bored.

Can't find a picture of them, I'm guessing they no longer make them.

Yes it is very strange.
Boredom is no excuse for perversity, at least no one has ever accepted such an excuse from me so I'm not accepting it from you.
Can you please refrain from this unnatural love and we'll speak of it no more.

Not really. And if so, why give a crap? :)

No. You can like whatever you like.  :)
"We've thought of life by analogy with a journey, with pilgrimage which had a serious purpose at the end, and the THING was to get to that end; success, or whatever it is, or maybe heaven after you're dead. But, we missed the point the whole way along; It was a musical thing and you were supposed to sing, or dance, while the music was being played.

Nope and you can never own too many or spend too much on them. My current favorites are Common Project Achilles Low in white.

I too have a favourite pair of shoes. Though I will freely admit that it is a question of comfort and versatility over style. And I think I only have five pairs of shoes to my name.

I am very much the same. I usually limit myself to about 5 pairs per season.

I have five pairs total. Sneakers, leather uniform shoes, uniform boots, winter boots, and plain black leather street shoes (favourite)

It's  unequivocally normal. Though it is strange that you think it might be strange.

Okay sure, 5 per season, but what about the ones that you buy to match a certain outfit and then they hurt your feet and you never wear them again?  What do you do, just throw those away?  That's wasteful.   >:(

Dog Yoda and those shamelessly derivative Buddhists say love is the path to the dark side.
So stop it or I'm going to campaign for a favourite shoe tax and shoe uniformity legislation!
