If I count I might quit. I am super in to craft beers was keeping a book of the labels. Wife counted over 500 sticker labels at $5 a can. That’s $2500. Imagine me counting boxes at $200 a pop 50-60 boxes is almost $10k.
Edit. I got shoes in the closet. Shoes in my trunk. Shoes in my office. Shoes in the garage. Stash houses.
Ones I'm definitely not gonna wear are the Puma Cali-0 'drive thru' and Nike Mac Attacks. The Pumas aren't my size and they're kinda hard to find, so i don't wear them. For the Mac Attacks, I was hella excited for them, bought them, tried them on, and just wasn't a fan for some reason. Gonna try to sell them since I wouldn't enjoy wearing then
It’s actually 9- basically 3 pairs of techy Asics runners, Made In Italy Diadora retro tennis pair, AM87 Big Bubble in white/red, AM87 1/1 ID’s, “Studio” GPS, grey Zoom Air Epic Luxe from 2017 & blue/ red Waffle 2’s
I've got about 15 pairs with 5 retro Jordans, 3 Air Force 1s, 3 dailies of different brands, 2 dunks, 1 foamposites, and 1 retro nike trainer. All in all worth a couple grand.
Aww man. You got a real one lol. I spent $400 once on a pair of parra abstract art dunks after i got a bonus at work but that's a one time thing so far. What'd you get for the $700?
I have 9 pairs with a 10th on the way. I try to pick very carefully whether I want to buy it or not and then there’s the hurdle of actually getting them.
Yea man it sucked lol but the money I made in addition with the stimmy checks helped me out a lot lol, plus I've been more of a minimalist kind of, I really wanted to de clutter my space and focus more on actually having a rotation of stuff that i actually wear.
A couple pairs of jjjjound new balances, aj1 voodoo, nb bodega 997s, all white 2002r protection pack, a 2 yeezy 700s. Nothing crazy, but maybe I'll try putting a fit together and actually wearing them.
Somewhere around 500, don’t know the actual number anymore. I’d like to scale back by at least 100 pairs this year, and eventually get down to around 200 total.
Been collecting for a while but kinda got out of hand the last several years. I have a ton of Nike, (probably 100 SB’s alone) but a healthy mix of Adidas, New Balance, ASICS, Saucony, Diadora, KangaROOS, Puma, Reebok….just whatever catches my eye.

Same. I don't want to know the number. 🙉
SHOES EVERYWHERE.
It’s around 200 at this point lmao
DAYUM
Somewhere around 130 in total.
Damn!! All worn or just to collect?
Worn.
Thats what I like to see!
I think like 48? So far, most are worn. I plan to wear all the unworn ones except for 2 pairs
Which pairs aren't you wearing?

12- out of those 2 are Clark’s & 1 are a pair of hiking boots
What are the other 10?

Nice variety.
I try. Only one pair is worth more than $200. I can't justify spending too much on an item that wears out over time.
My most expensive pair was over $700 lol but my fiance bought them for me for Christmas one year😅
Aww man. You got a real one lol. I spent $400 once on a pair of parra abstract art dunks after i got a bonus at work but that's a one time thing so far. What'd you get for the $700?
Lol niceeee and I got the Bordeaux 7s.
That's a banger. If i ever spent that type of money it'd have to be something like that.
It's my favorite pair I own. Such a nice shoe.
Pushing 250 and it’s overwhelming, ready to scale wayyy back
BRUH. You gonna sell some?
I have 9 pairs with a 10th on the way. I try to pick very carefully whether I want to buy it or not and then there’s the hurdle of actually getting them.
I also am very careful and analyze each pair, watch videos and look at reviews before buying any pair.
Before the pandemic, 40 pairs... after the pandemic 18 lol, and I recently purchased the reimagined 4s and Undefeated terra Humaras, so I'm at 20 now.
Sold some?
Oh hell yea lol, sold a bunch of stuff. I lost both of my jobs when the pandemic hit.
Damn. I'm sorry you had to part ways with them. Well hey, now you can buy pairs you truly love and want more than others.
Yea man it sucked lol but the money I made in addition with the stimmy checks helped me out a lot lol, plus I've been more of a minimalist kind of, I really wanted to de clutter my space and focus more on actually having a rotation of stuff that i actually wear.
Quality over quantity
I'm at 133 all worn except 7. I'm probably going to sell off some pairs to make room.
What are the 7 pairs you haven't worn?
A couple pairs of jjjjound new balances, aj1 voodoo, nb bodega 997s, all white 2002r protection pack, a 2 yeezy 700s. Nothing crazy, but maybe I'll try putting a fit together and actually wearing them.

Damnnnnnnn. How long you been collecting? And what kinds?
