Wow im not the only one who's sentimental about shoes. I often struggle to throw old pairs out. For instance I've got a pair of dimple black tennis shoes i picked up for 15aud in australia. The soles are literally falling off and flap around when i walk in them. They're actually dangerous to wear as the soles have nearly cone off all together. But those shoes have been around the world with me. There's so many memories with them. So i keep them sitting next to my other shoes. I probably will never wear them again but keep them as valued memories.
