Good on you for taking the time to take photos of some of your collection. It does take a long time to do these things when the collection is large. The other problem is trying to photograph them all when a camera view only allows so many to be photographed at once. Nice shoes.

How do you store your shoes, in boxes or on shelves without boxes? Have you always been into shoes, or was it something that came as you got older?

Do you plan to photograph the entire collection? It will take many hours to organise, but it would make for a memorable photo. The problem is, space.

Do you have closeups of your bespoke John Lobb and Fukuda?
