Well for work, I work in a corporate environment, so I have dress shoes. Some brown Florsheims (spelling?) and some black Kenneth Coles.

But off work, its all NIKE for me.

I'm very lucky that I work in a very casual environment (shorts, short sleeve button down shirt, etc) so I can get away with wearing Flip Flops and Sandals which is also what I wear when I'm not at work. In the Summer of course.

Dress shoes at work.  New Balance running shoes, flip flops or barefooted at all other times.

On duty I wear Magnum Stealth boots, issued so it's nice, and I'll also wear them on my days off in the winter cause they are warm and great for snow and ice.  Summertime I go with the 'skater' shoes cause I've got a wide food and they are the most comfortable.

golf shoes, flip flops, running shoes.

Oh, I have been known to wear dress shoes on occasion.

I am pretty picky about shoes.

I used to wear skate shoes exclusivly but they just got to damn puffy, like wearing sleeping bags on my feet...

Now I pretty much wear these;


or these



These for workin out;


These are my dress casual shoes in black.


Flip Flops almost exclusively in summer they have to be Reefs;


Bowling;


Golf


So there ya go, a little introspective into my footwear.

Nike's at the hospital, Causal shoes to church and when I meet customers for my business - other than that it is flip-flops all the way.  Even in winter.

I have many pairs of flipflops.  I have a pair of cheap rubber ones I wear when I clean out the pool(no matter how hard you try, you WILL get wet) another rubber pair in the RV for those campground showers, leather ones, fabric ones, ones with a bottle opener built into the bottom(beer, you know)   etc.......

My wife calls me the shoe 'ho
