Are you average?


It is estimated that the average Canadian woman has 27 pairs of shoes in her wardrobe. 13 to 16 year old's with an average of 15 pairs and women over 50 having on average 50 pairs. Regardless of age, a woman should have the following ten basic footwear essentials:
A low heeled basic pump, a neutral pump, a flat, a dressy black high heel, a metallic high heeled dress shoe, a casual everyday shoe, a sneaker, a dress boot, a casual tall boot, and a sandal. As mentioned, these are just the basics. What woman today doesn't have at least one statement shoe, a pair of Uggs or Ugg like boots, a pair of rain boots, and of course a vast collection of flip flops (flip flops don’t go out of style).

As it turns out, the average Canadian male owns 8 pairs of shoes (from 3 on the below average side, to 14 pairs). My significant other is above average with at least ten pairs of sneakers. One model was purchased in three bold colors, and another sneaker model gives him severe blisters along the top of his foot (but he sports them anyways because they were ‘limited edition’, which really means overpriced and uncomfortable) For the men reading this, please share how many pairs you own, as 8 doesn’t seem like a fair average.
