I have a unique story with footwear. My feet are long and slim, almost like a lady’s foot, so normal shoes rarely fit me. Most of my life, I had to adjust with whatever sizes were available. Either they were too tight or too loose, but I still wore shoes almost all the time.

Then one day I bought a pair from Adidas, and for the first time, a shoe fit perfectly. Since I’m a little bow-legged, I used to feel self-conscious wearing shoes, like they didn’t look stylish on me. But with this pair, I actually felt cool. That was a surprisingly good feeling.

After my 30s, I stopped wearing shoes daily and only wore them for long trips or special outings. Yet whenever I wear these Adidas shoes, they somehow always get wet — rain, puddle splashes, even once while crossing an overflowing lake.

I still have them.

That’s my shoe story. 😅
