Clown shoes, unless you are a clown, are not one of the FIFTY TYPES of SHOES THAT EVERY MAN SHOULD OWN.
Web Watch will make this one a bit easy, as men should probably only own five pairs of shoes:
- Sneakers
- Black dress shoes
- Brown dress shoes
- Boots for bad weather
- Flip-flops or other beach-appropriate wear
The average guy doesn’t need 15 different types of kicks, in various brands and/or colors. Just pick a sneaker and wear that to play tennis or basketball, or walk around the mall in. We’ll make an exception of mowing the grass — you should have a dedicated pair of old Keds for that, just because.
And you’ll get a pass for golf shoes or bowling shoes as well. Web Watch does love some good bowling.
But let’s take a look at this list of 50 shoes that every guy needs. Really? What guy do you know who has more than maybe six different shoes — not counting Giant Moose Head Slippers? Let’s take a look at the full list after the break:
- LL Bean boots (“Duck Boots”)
- Sneakers
- Hunting Boots
- Cowboy Boots
- Sperry Top Sider
- Rainbow Sandals
- Dr. Martens
- Gucci Loafer
- Tods Driving Mocs
- Clarks Wallabees
- Converse Chuck Taylor All Star
- Vans
- LL Bean Wicked Good Mocs
- Salvatore Ferragamo Wingtip
- Cole Haan Penny Loafer
Yeah, we didn’t list all fifty shoe types here – we left out all 30+ sneaker variations, for example.
But seriously? Dude — you should never have more shoes than the woman in your life. Just saying…
