Well, I was at a temple and before we go in, we take off our shoes. By the way, I'm Hindu.
Anyway, hours pass as I'm with friends, doing prayers, and eating lunch there. Well, when I go back, out of the hundreds of shoes, my new Iversons were gone! I looked for a long time and no luck. My dad bought the same ones at the time so I just wore his from then on since we have the same show size.
I was dissapointed but I guess it taught me and my family a lesson in a way because we never really expected shoes to be stolen.
Incase you're wondering the shoe came out to be like $30 a pair even though thats when they were new? I know people will ask so I'll just tell you know.
Whenever we go on a drive to Ohio or Chicago, we pass outlet malls. Here, they almost always have a Reebok store and we just go there. Pick out shoes you like, and then take them for check out. They always have two deals: Buy one, second half off and buy two get third free. Well, on top of that, you can use a AAA card if you're a member and get like another 15% or 20% off (I don't remember exactly how much though). We got three pairs of Iversons then at $30 a pair once you average it out. My brother, my dad, and myself, all got nice shoes when they were new. Other times, just my dad and I will get a pair or my brother and I so whatever the case, its cheap!
