Personal preference on what you want to wear that day and what the rest of your clothes looks like?

I have at least 8 pairs of sneakers now in the shoe closet in the hallway + 4 or 5 "good Sunday shoes" and 2 pairs of cold weather / walking shoes.

Sneakers don't really age and your size doesn't change, they only get old when worn. So there is no reason not to buy several color combinations you like and wear whichever you think looks nice today. I would call I think half of mine "white" but in more detail they have different stripes and styles.

Dress shoes the same, they last forever and I have them in more or less formal looking as well as colors that match different suits/belts combinations.

Sneakers do age in my case. The sole plastic turns brittle over time. I’ve noticed that orange rubber seems to degrade the quickest. Not sure if that is due to the color or what. Doesn’t help I love on the equator of course.
