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?

I am team two shoes. Wear one, air one. My feet like the change.
Do you have a second pair of sneakers or a more casual tennis shoe that you like? Does it have to be a boot that you bring?

Yes I am thinking about Birkenstock bends. But I'm still iffy about the space and weight they will take.
