    I’m at the stage of life of no laces. I don’t plan to buy shoes with laces ever again if I can help it. Those slip on Skechers are comfy and stylish.

    Yeah but they're prone to fly off when you're running from the cops.

    In order of daily use with current brands in parentheses. I'm not brand loyal (except for fire boots) and try different stuff all the time, especially since Nike has gone downhill and squeak or fall apart faster than they should.

    A summer mesh-y running shoe (Brooks) that I wear for three seasons and a winter pleather-y sneaker (Nike) I wear in winter or when it's raining.
    I have a summer lo-rise hiker (Columbia) and a winter waterproof hi-rise hiker (La Sportiva).
    A pair of nicer shoes that I try to keep clean, but are really just fancy sneakers or hikers for wearing khakis and walking on European cobblestones (Hoka).
    On old pair of sneakers that I keep in the garage and wear for yardwork because I always miss a dog deposit or two and don't want that on my regular shoes. (Adidas)
    An ancient pair of wingtips that I wear to funerals. (Clarks)
    And of course, a now probably never-to-be-used-again old pair of these bad boys (White's):
