What is/was your all-time favorite pair of shoes? Mine was a pair of navy blue Capezios I wore in high school.

@Justice4all They were my favorite shoes when I was was young(er). I also liked "Old Main Trotters".

I don't remember many others. I've always been a shoe freak.

Now because I have a bad back it seems like the shoes that work best for me are Birkenstock. I have well over 100 pair of Birkenstock shoes alone! One time I counted them, never again! Most of them are sandals. I wear all different one's in the Spring and Summer that match every outfit. They were all purchased mainly on QVC. They are amazing, the colors, the designs, the flowers, etc. I love, love them.

I still buy some different shoes but can't wear them for long. The problem is I have big feet (size 10 or 11), so it's hard for me to go into stores and find what I like.

Just for the pleasure, I take my 2 teenage granddaughters into DSW shoe warehouse. I've been taking them there since they were very little! The love shoes like I do. We might spend close to 2 hours with them trying on shoes. Now they are almost 15 and 16, so it's really fun!

I'd take the Ipad and videotape them walking around in their shoes! I have some cute ones of them in high heels. Now they can run in the heels! We've walked out of there with 2 and 3 pair each before. Their mother (my daughter) is not a shopper and she just shakes her head! She thinks I'm crazy and I think she's probably right! Ha!

I wish the Q would start selling Birkenstock again!

In my life I have been priviledged to own more than a fair share of footwear. For my all-time favorite I have to set the way back machine way back to the mid-1960s and the go-go boot. I had two white pair. One was the short Andre Courreges which I realize as an adult was quite an indulgence from Mom. The other was a tall white leather (but it was a substantially cheaper knock off from Montgomery Ward). The images below show what I had for those too young to have been there, and for those who are old enough to have forgotten the style.

I love shoes! I don’t think I could pick just one favorite pair. I wear my black riding boots often in cold weather so they are favorites now. I love my navy velvet loafers, and I could not survive without my Keds sneakers or black ballet flats. I also love my wedge espadrilles in spring and summer. Shoes are most definitely my weakness.
