[quote=Anonymous]I would all depend on the shoe that he wants in a shoe. I personal got a job at shoe store so my parents didnt have to deal with the ordeal of buying me shoes. I will confess that i do own around 20 pairs of shoes at the age of 18 but i have had the same size shoe for 5 years. Ive also spent near a grand worth in my collection. Most kids stop growing shoes sizes around 13 or 14. Shoes will only go up in price because of the cost of oil, labor, and the greedy people at the companies head quarters. Be thankful you child isnt making the shoes them self and that will live in this great country of opportunity where they can go get their own job. If you kid wants the shoe compromise with them and have them look at all of the shoes online or in store. Let them see all of their options and hopefully they'll change their mind. If you go to the local finishline, the sales people will be more than willing to help you out and make sure they find something in your price range. As a formal employee there we tried everything to help you as a customer. Most high school kids dont care about the brand of shoe that your wearing and more than likely their friends wont either. Since your child does have a wide foot, there are many other options besides NB that will taint his style. Look around online at NIKE, ADIDAS, Under Armour, and Reebok. Reebok and Adidas do run a little wide and so to the Nike AirMax and majority of Jordans/Basketball shoes. I know for a fact that finishline's website does sort the shoes by width and size. If you take your time in finding him some shoes that he likes he will be much happier on the long run. I see this on a daily basis at work and we as sales associates much rather see this than a quick sale. [/quote]
