Flea Market Tennis Shoe trouble

[Dude]

I went to the flea market today and while I was walking around looking at all the junk a guy says he has some super tennis shoe cleaner and wants to show me how great it works. So he cleans my right tennis shoes which I knew was dirty, so now my right shoe is squeeky clean and my left shoe is all dirty. I asked him about cleaning the left shoe and he said I would have to buy the cleaner and it was $6.00 well I only paid $8.00 for my tennis shoes so I can't really see spending almost the price of a new pair, when I could just spend another $2 bucks and buy a new pair.

So I now have one very white shoe, and one that is mostly grey/brown much darker shoe.

I am trying to figure out how I can go back next weekend and get him to clean the other one. :D

LOL ! 8 dollars sneakers, lmao your sooo funny !! Just take a soap and scrub your shoes. Do your shoes last long ?

When I was in Switzerland I had a sneaker malfunction, and I had to buy a new pair of shoes. I think I ended up paying over $150 for them, and they lasted about they same as my $8 shoes.

I am not convinced that they were not made by the same factory. I think some places just charge you a lot for the name, and some places just charge you for the shoes.
