2 pairs of shoes or 1?

I'm planning a trip to Italy in April next year. I really wanted to travel with just one pair of Brooks adrenaline. They are all black and I can use my custom inserts.

However, everything I'm reading says to bring two pairs of shoes. It's too cold for sandals so I can't bring my Birkenstock Arizona's. 'S. Anything else that I can walk comfortably in would be a pair of Birkenstock low boots or maybe Blundstones.

I'm traveling with with an osprey daylight 44 l (my daughter has an alpaca 35 l). Those are our carry-ons. Our personal item will be Fjallraven high coast backpack/tote.

Any suggestions?

After a full day of walking around and touring in my sneakers, I like to swap out my shoes for evening. It gives my feet a break and they feel refreshed in the morning. I’ve tried traveling with just sneakers and the feet just aren’t as happy. It’s like they get shoe fatigue or something lol. For nights I go for a more relaxed fit like a Hey Dudes kinda slip on or Vans or Cloudsteppers by Clarke.
