Re: Do you buy "backup" shoes?

I've been buying these canvas sneakers at Torrid that look like lace ups but are the slip on kind. They are extremely comfortable, and I use them as my walking shoes and everyday casual shoes. I wear a size 13 W - a size that hardly any store carries. Luckily Torrid realizes some big people also have big feet. These sneakers come in different colors and when they go on sale I get a pair. I have black, white/blue stripe, and I just bought a denim dot print and a black/white gingham print.

Yes I do. Right now I'm looking for a backup for a backup...LOL! I've already worn out the backup pair so I need another pair.

I don't because as the seasons change and new styles are released, I usually find something other shoes that I like better.
