That New Shoe Feeling
Few feelings rival the joy of shopping and buying something you have wanted for a while, especially now that it feels like everything is more accessible than it once was. There used to be such a unique thrill in going to the mall and finally purchasing what you’ve had your eye on for months.
It can feel disheartening to leave the store with your old, worn shoes after trying on a brand new pair of fresh kicks… If you end up buying the new shoes, then none of this matters. But if you were only trying them on for fun, it’s understandable that you would walk out feeling a little down about your own footwear.
