I have one pair of black Oxfords for formal, one pair of casual leather sort of desert boot things, one pair of casual dark suede things, and a pair of trainers. And a cupboard full of old bin fodder I guess.

(I don't count cycle-shoes, and nor should you.)
I own five pairs including a damaged pair that I have not thrown out even though I have replaced them.
1. I legitimately own only one pair of shoes. My trainers, that if they are looked after - as they are at the moment - also work as nice, black shoes suitable for corporate events, weddings, etc.
Three: shoes, trainers, hiking shoes :smile:

Nothing that can be ascribed the nomenclature of "trainer" is appropriate for any of the above-mentioned occasions: invest in some dark-brown or black cap-toe Oxfords.
Two pairs of shoes.
Two pairs of trainers.
Football boots (does that count).

Yea I need to buy more - just gonna casually wait for sales...
Based on what I often use, 4 pairs.
2 that I wear regularly: black boots and nike sb dunks.
Then I have like 8 more pairs sitting in the wardrobe.
