Would you order shoes online? Seems too risky for me, since it's very hard for me to find a fit I like.

Absolutely hate the feeling of the back rubbing against my heel, but nearly everything I try on seems to do this.

  - Wait, we are counting grass cutting shoes? Add 2 or 3 pairs for that. - Spawn Jan 5, 18:43 1
    - the mudatholn shoes are retired grass cutting shoes. -- nm - Remlik Jan 5, 18:45
- I probably *own* about that many. Though I probably only wear about 4-6 regularly. - JaxSean Jan 5, 18:23 1
  - As for wearing regularly, 3 pairs are winter only, 3 pairs are warm weather only. -- nm - Spawn Jan 5, 18:28
- I use one pair. I also have some slippers, and some sandals. In a box I can't find, I have nice dress shoes. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 5, 18:20 1

      - Out of my 20pairs there are shoes I have not worn in a couple years. -- nm - Spawn Jan 5, 18:29
- Yeah, think I have about 20 pairs right now. -- nm - Spawn Jan 5, 18:05
Only if it is shoes I have owned or at least tried on in person. -- nm - Spawn Jan 5, 18:02
I always do through Nike.com. -- nm - David Jan 5, 18:00 3
