Speaking as someone who owns more than 200 pair of shoes myself, I have complemented others for their shoes.
In fact, I have a friend who has private jet money and he compliments my shoes.
Last year I sported a pair of elephant hide boots and he wanted to know where I got them.
Is it really unbelievable and dorky to pay a compliment?
Imelda! Is that you?
LOL
Just kidding.,.
WOW, I have never owned more than 6-7 pairs of shoes at one time.... and that’s including hiking boots, ski boots, and ice skates!!
