Do you get that feeling?



So, I just sat down and decided to murder the ghost, and looked at points that must be thought about before buying a shoe.

So here are the things that I thought off-

1. Decision - First, make sure that you actually do want to buy a sneaker, and that you're ready to shell out money.

2. Budget- Very vital. Decide the budget that you can make use for the shoe. However little, or however great, make sure you know how much you're playing with.

3. Choice- Yes, this is the moment that you make your mind whether you go for cheaper shoes or costly trainerss. Some tend to go for cheap ones, and then buy another later, and some just go for a highly costly one one and wear it for a very long time. I think the first way would be great, if you easily get tired with what you decide to wear and the other option would be really great if you're really choosy about what you decide to wear.

4. Brands- Make a small mental list of all the brands that you're really interested in. This will really narrow down the search. This is only if you're picky, if you're not that picky, then don't make a list.

5. Online or the nearby Store- Now comes the other choice. Buying from either places has its pros and cons. The best way, is to go through the stuff on the net and then try and find it near a mall near you. That way, you're combining the advantages both the mediums offer.

6. Size- Be aware of the size, if you're buying for someone else, choose to wear sandals when you go for shopping. Then, when you try on the sneaker, you can feel the difference more easily.

7. Trials- Make sure that you give it a try at least three to four pairs before you decide on one shoe. Or buy the first one you like. But nothing in between.

8. Compare Costs- Make sure that you differentiate the prices before you decide. Sometimes, there can be huge price differences.

9. Emergency- If you really liked a shoe and it's above your budget, don't fret, go for it. Nothing like buying something that you really love, but this is only if you really really love it.

10. References not ads - Go by references if you can get any, and not by advertisements. Ads can be really improper. Trust me!

So here were a few things that I understood from my experiences. So go and get kicking!
