Finally after 8 months of playing basketball with my first pair of Adidas shoes, the condition of the shoes is now quite unwearable. The soles of the shoes are nearly reduced to nothing. I find it had to run and grip my footing on the court. Worst yet if it rains, it is very dangerous. Here are my old shoes.
My dad agreed to sponsor me some money to buy my new pair of shoes long ago. But previously when I went to Queenway Shopping Centre to shop for shoes, I found nothing that I like. I wanted to try Nike instead of going back to Adidas. So I delayed buying my shoes until yesterday. I went there with Louis. And there was this new model that was not too bad looking. However Louis kept tempting me to buy the Kobe Bryant shoes. Comparing both prices the normal Nike one will cost $120 while the Kobe Bryant Nike one will cost $199. After shopping two rounds of the mall, I have decided to go for the Kobe Bryant one. This after I bargain the price down from $199 to $167. With my dad agreeing to sponsor $120 for me, I end up paying $47 from my own money for this new pair!
Special thanks to my dad willing to pay for me so much. I am excited to try my new shoes on the court however due to the monsoon rainy season; I have not been playing basketball for the past 4 days! Brittany (who is still in Hong Kong) must have been praying for the rain that I will not play basketball and hence not injure myself on the court. “Haha!” She will be back in 2 days!
