I had a lot of shoes but all flats in various colors, except 2 pairs
sandals and 3 with 1 inch heels in plain pumps (tan, maroon, and
white).  Then 2 for snow shoes.

When excema (Allergy related) started on the bottom of my feet, I had
to swap to super soft arthritus shoes.  I have 3 pairs (Black, grey,
and maroon).  I got rid of most of the shoes on the Trashnothing site
(everything is free there).  They went to a lady who'd gotten her first
professional job and had to upscale her wardrobe significantly,  I was
happy to help her out with one of the expensive parts.  Probably 30
pair in all colors to match outfits.
