Ok this is pretty funny for real, but also tell me if I'm crazy. (This was in the NYC Niketown if anyone's curious.)
So I ask for my 9.5 pair of Powder Blue IXs and I start examining it when it comes. I notice some little marks, so I ask for another pair. I really didn't feel bad asking once.
Well, the 2nd pair comes and it has some little marks too. I'm like, "Damn, am I really gonna ask him to get another pair?" Of course, I do ask, and the guy that was helping me even said himself, "It's cool. If you're going to spend that much money, you should make sure you get a good pair."
The 3rd pair comes and I notice the left shoe has some marks but the right shoe is fine. So, I ask the guy if I can just switch out the right shoe from the different boxes that way I end up with a good left and right shoe. I'm happy now and I thank the guy a lot for the help.
Then, I meet up with my friend a few blocks away to eat and the asks to see them. I pull them out and his girl notices some tiny marks on the right shoe.....
I have to go back again! At least my friend was gonna buy something too, so it wasn't like I was going there just for that (even though I would have to be honest).
There's a different employee there now, but I basically do the same thing. I switch shoes and I REALLY examine them hard this time
. While I'm doing it, the employee is talking to my friend and he says he knows some guys that are like me. He says that we "CSI our kicks"
. We were ROLLING when he said that.
Sorry for the kinda long story, but that was hilarious to me. Anyway, am I the only fiend who does that and did you ever hear the term "CSI your kicks?"
