Okay, so I’ve been meaning to get into women’s basketball for a while, and I finally took the plunge. I decided to focus on “botas,” which I guess are just, like, the shoes, right?
Getting Started
First, I tried to figure out what exactly I should be looking for. I mean, are women’s basketball shoes different from men’s? Turns out, yeah, sometimes they are! It’s all about the shape of the foot, apparently. Women’s feet are generally narrower, especially at the heel, or something like that.
The Deep Dive
Then I started just looking at pictures of shoes. Lots and lots of pictures. I figured seeing what the pros wear would be a good starting point. I noticed a lot of high-tops, which makes sense, I guess, for ankle support.
- Checked out some popular brands. Everyone knows the big names, so I figured that was a safe bet.
- Looked at different styles. Some were super flashy, others more basic. I’m still not sure what I prefer.
- Started reading some reviews. It’s all about comfort and performance, right? Gotta have both!
Making a Choice (Almost)
I narrowed it down to a few pairs that looked good and seemed to have decent reviews. Honestly, it’s a bit overwhelming! There are so many options.
I still haven’t bought a pair yet.
Next Steps
I am going to check the sizes of these shoes and finally I am going to buy one!
