    Know exactly where you're coming from here embee - if you don't fit into the norm - your shoe size is less than 3% market (guess)- yer fúcked in Ireland. I have serious difficulty getting size 9 wide fitting - not that serious rarely and I'm a guy it just fits maybe 1 - 2% of guys - I personally blame the government and their pathetic "protectionist" purely pro-retailler protectionist laws on warehousing/retail space. Ikea coming here is a step forward - but not sure if they sell shoes. Not sure if I want the british to take over irish retail - fairly sure they don't want michael o'leary to take over their aerospace - surely a happy medium can be reached - it's the cúnts giving out the brown envelopes that perpetrate the existing status quo that need to get fúcked [/RANT]

    christ i just counted.....shameful total is 43 pairs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,518 ✭✭✭✭dudara


    I store all mine in their boxes, so they're relatively easy to keep tidy. They live on top of the wardrobe and in three stack along the wall. The drawback to having 80 + pairs


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,078 ✭✭✭tabatha


    well i would dread to count how many i have....i would say over 40 pairs anyway and most with matching handbags!

    I reckon I could but I'd have to wear some sort of paper bag over my face for fear of being seen in them!

    2 dubes (brown n navy)

    Okay, request for clarification. What are dubes? I've heard them mentioned before; cursory attempts to ask Google have failed. They seem to be quite controversial, for some reason. Are they made out of kittens or something? :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 408 ✭✭Blondie86Star


    Theyre used for sailing, but most commonly worn by "D4 heads"- see UCD forum for more info!

    Ah, I've seen those about the place; they got very, very common last year. How odd; don't really see what the fuss is. Thanks :) (Random curiosity satisfied).
