I am unusual that I have more shoes than my wife.  DSW sends out

I have three pair.  One is a leather loafer, a dressier shoe that
I've not worn in over six years.

 
I think I have four, but they're all the same model of New Balance
running shoes.  The newest I wear every day, the second-newest are
for ordinary lawn-mowing, garden weeding, etc.  The other two are
at the back of my closet in case I think I might get into something
really mucky.  They're disposable.
 
One new pair every November (for winter traction); discard the
oldest pair.

I had a lot of shoes but all flats in various colors, except 2 pairs
sandals and 3 with 1 inch heels in plain pumps (tan, maroon, and
white).  Then 2 for snow shoes.

When excema (Allergy related) started on the bottom of my feet, I had
to swap to super soft arthritus shoes.  I have 3 pairs (Black, grey,
and maroon).  I got rid of most of the shoes on the Trashnothing site
(everything is free there).  They went to a lady who'd gotten her first
professional job and had to upscale her wardrobe significantly,  I was
happy to help her out with one of the expensive parts.  Probably 30
pair in all colors to match outfits.
