When I was in high school, I played basketball for my high school team. We were great together and won nearly every game. My teammate and friend told me to try a pair of Jordan 12 basketball shoes from the Michael Jordan line. I was skeptical, at first, when he claimed that I would run faster and jump higher. I didn’t really think a pair of shoes could really make that much of a difference. I also felt proud and a little over confident in my own abilities thinking I was great on my own. I finally decided to buy a pair and was surprised when I found that my friend’s claims were true.
