Damn, you have more shoes than I've ever had at one time in my life.

:D

I‘m also surprised with how many piled up… thing is, I really cannot kill shoes, I still have some sneakers from 10 years ago that are still in good shape.

I had to buy new shoes lately due to my feet becoming bigger through the use of more roomy shoes! For example, the Merrells have become too small and I don’t use them anymore.
