My male friend has like 20 times as many shoes as me

no joke my maths teacher has over a 100 pairs of shoes and he loves them all

I'm a guy and I wore the same shoes for 3-4 years until it either became too small or fell apart

We had a guy in school, who had t-shirts in every existing bright colour (red, orange, green, yellow, blah...) and for every shirt he had a matching pair of converse

I only ever had one pair of shoes at a time

It was probably valid back when women always dressed very fancily and men always wore suits, except women had tons of shoes to choose from, but men usually just had two pairs of loafers:brown or black. Nowadays it really doesn't matter because for some reason they have reversed. :)

They cost a ton though

I own two pair
