Neue Schuhen fuer SGD 80 (50% off)

 Posted by Hello


My friend helped me get these new kicks from a World of Sport Sale....AND1 shoes were heavily discounted.....a lot of items were selling at half price! including this pair..for those of you who don't play basketball you've probably never heard of this brand coz it's a brand specially catered to basketball players. Why is it called AND1? Well there's a story behind it....When a player gets fouled while attempting a shot and makes the shot, he gets to go to the charity stripe(free-throw line) for a free throw while the shot he made when he was fouled counts....If he makes the free throw as well he completes a three-point play....1 addtional to the normal two....thus it's called AND1.....

Now I'm trying not to buy Nike shoes because they sell shoes at outrageous prices and most of the shoes are probably made by oppressed child laborers in SEA sweatshops...Hey Nike if you're gonna rip us off...that's ok...but don't exploit the child laborers.....So that's why I try not to buy Nike shoes....makes me feel guilty wearing them no matter how good they look....Plus AND1 shoes aren't half bad,good design and real comfortable to wear...plus...this color goes great with my NJC jersey....haha....feeling nostalgic about my JC playing days where I get to order around people during drills and make them run laps....hehe.....though the NJ basketball team sucked like a vacuum...(no thanks to me)the comradre and team spirit
was there....By the end of my JC career, I've only played in 6 official tournaments(NJ always gets eliminated at the first round)....Score tally? About a total of 15 points on around 5/8 shooting...a couple of free throws,several assists and some rebounds....Not glamorous at all...but at least I did my best...quite a lot of my teammates would be coming to NUS next semester....haha....When we play together again I'll make sure they have their ass handed to them...
