Say ‘Good night!’ and Go

There’s a store called ‘Why Pay More?’ in MidValley that sells sporting goods direct from the factory. There are no shoe boxes to put the shoes in when you buy them.

When I was there, I found a nice pair of shoes. They were a size 9½. Three velcro straps, non-marking soles. Adidas, made in China. I had NO idea what kind of shoes they were, but they were comfortable (one size too big, I think) and they only cost RM99. The shoes on offer were arranged according to size. they were all in a jumble and you had to dig between the football shoes and basketball shoes to find something worthy. There was another pair of ’shoes’ and they cost RM149.50. The sole had holes in them (you could see the fabric of the shoe through them), and when worn, it felt as if you would be able to feel the stones underfoot. It was extremely light and flexible. I felt that they were weren’t suited for walking, and could be yoga shoes for all I knew. I wasn’t going to walk around in funny-looking shoes and showing people that I didn’t know what I was wearing on my feet.

Well, after doing some research, I do believe that the shoes I bought are the Adidas Zerin. White and Blue. Manufactured 05/05. Some sites say it’s a leisure shoe, others say that it is a workout shoe. Hmmm…
