If you think it is only women who can have a fetish for shoes, take a quick look into the Aladdin's cave that belongs to Xu Bo, and it will set you rethinking.

The cave is his Beijing home's 12 square-meter living room in which reside 400 pairs of sports shoes, about 150 of them bought solely as collectors' items. Most are limited editions and the brands he covets most are Air Jordan, Nike, Adidas and Reebok.

Like many of his peers born in the 1980s, Xu started buying sports shoes because of a love for NBA, something that developed when he was in middle school.
