Shoes

2014, Daejeon,South Korea

Shoes...are funny things. They take you everywhere. Somewhere where you belong to and some places you don't.  They are the evidence of everything you have done and enjoyed or regretted doing it. They are something you feel good about wearing them, for they are your friends-forever. They promise you an adventurous start to the day and not leaving you mid-way in a crisis. They promise you a comfortable ride by giving you confidence to do that  and reach onto that place. You love them and they are truly your prized possession.

Although shoes were just a utilitarian thing for me style didn't mean much; I always wanted a good pair of casual shoes for myself. I would usually wander through the shops for days and find nothing that would satisfy me. Very often I would lose hope and buy anything that at least seems fitting and then solemnly regret it. 

I thought it would be the same with this pair but I could not have been more wrong. As soon as I saw them on the shelf I immediately got attracted to them for I knew this is it. This is what I was yearning for years and finally I had it in front of my eyes.

As far as I remember I bought them at 50% Sale in a Reebok outlet somewhere during the early winters of 2011 in Bangalore. Even after a hefty discount, it had still cost me quite a deal at that time L. I still remember how happy I was to buy them for several reasons. They were stylish yet not eye catchy, perfect fit and long-lasting. We shared a 4 years long bond.

I went so many places in them.  First Bangalore, then Delhi, UK, KGP, South Korea, and many more places here and there.  I remember how they made me feel every time I put them on. It’s good to have one ideal pair. Sadly, I've lost one shoe in the pair. Its time I have to start looking for another new pair, but I m going to miss them. 

Guess it’s time to be in someone else’s shoes… :P
