newbalanceThe younger generation gets its fashion cues from icons that pervade the Internet and cable channels. Professional basketball players such as LeBron James and hip-hop musicians like Kanye West inform plenty of shoe purchases in rural areas as well as the inner city. These stars know that high-class functions call for dress shoes, but they also demonstrate taste in sneakers.

Thousands of adherents follow along with sneaker culture; they keep up with the rapidly evolving fashion trends and try to anticipate the hottest new shoe lines. There are dozens of Web sites and print magazines devoted to chronicling the casual shoe scene. Some avid collectors buy two pairs at a time – one to wear and another to save for posterity. Don’t be surprised to see sneaker museums popping up in the not-too-distant future featuring Nike and New Balance womens shoes because the trend is just that hot.

Sorting through a Shoe Collection

shoe_pileWhen my husband proposed to me late last year, he did it in the most romantic manner possible. We were back at our old university town, the place where we met, to catch up with old friends. That’s when we took a stroll down by the river and he dropped to one knee. It was also among the funniest marriage proposals I’ve heard of in that he combined it with an ultimatum: I had to get my shoe collection under control.

It’s true, I’m a bit of a footwear fanatic. Back when we were still dating, my husband would be forever tripping over the enormous pile of shoes in my walk-in closet that he dubbed “Mount Shoe.” I realized it was time to organize them in a tidy manner, especially if we were going to move into a new house. In the end, I ditched several dozen pairs and kept only the brands and styles that I couldn’t do without. New Balance womens shoes were at the top of the list.
