I was meeting a friend for dinner at The Podium but I arrived a couple of hours early so I decided to go around the mall first. I passed by the Nike store there and saw that they were on sale. I had been thinking about getting new slides so I thought maybe I would find something there that was on sale. And indeed, I did. The slides I saw were on sale with a 50% discount, bringing the final cost to less than P800. Not bad. I immediately decided to get it.
The reason I like slides is because I can walk around in them while wearing socks. They are much easier to wear compared to shoes i.e. no more bending down to put them on and to tie shoelaces haha. I also prefer wearing socks with them because I sweat a lot (especially in Philippine weather). In the past, this slides and socks get-up might have been viewed as a bit of a fashion faux pas but it has become a lot more widely accepted in recent years. (And well, even if they are still viewed as very un-stylish, I don't really care haha.)
I actually almost purchased slides a couple of months ago. I saw a pair I kinda liked that weren't on sale but then someone purchased the last pair right as I was about to buy it. I was a bit bummed about it at that time but it turned out to be a blessing in disguise because I like these new slides I got better and, because of the 50% discount, they are a lot cheaper.
