“Buy me!” they called, every time I went online. Images of the Kayta Art Attack practice shoes danced in my head wherever I went. As an artist, I felt as if these shoes were made especially for me. Splatter paint on the top, custom soles on the bottom, my choice of red or blue. “You want me!” the shoes insisted. Yes, I wanted the shoes. Desperately. I couldn’t wait to receive them! Due to the Cuban heel, my balance has improved since I started wearing the shoes. The cushioned interior makes dancing more comfortable in both Latin and Standard. The colorful shoes match both my practice wear and my personality! Talk about soulmates. Now every time I do up the laces, someone new asks where I got my shoes. I proudly tell them IDS. Although sometimes the shoes tell the people for me.
