In reply to neuromancer:
I’m a bit of an Imelda Marcos, I’ve got dozens of pairs of shoes, 10 pairs of road running shoes, 6 pairs of fell or trail shoes, 3 pairs of XC spikes, 3 pairs of walking boots, 3 pairs of climbing shoes, 3 pairs of cycling shoes, 7 or 8 pairs of leather shoes or boots of various degrees of smartness, couple of pairs canvas pumps, sandals, flip flops and a few other things.
I have one pair of approach shoes, I spend 90% my times in them, it would be less if I was in the office more. Camping in the lakes last week, no climbing but lots of walking and a bit of gentle scrambling, they got worn for everything. I went for a run, so I wore running shoes then, but apart from that.
