I highly doubt you’re going to get good brand name or good running shoes for under $25.
My Pumas,other people’s Adidas,Nikes,etc. they’re all about $60, and that’s the cheapest.
You can always look online to see if they have a sale/clearance on those sites(again,I highly doubt that it would go down to $25)
Maybe you could earn half and she could pay half.
Your mother is not stupid for giving you a limit.
Make and spend your own money or don’t complain; that’s your answer.
You’re not going to get a brand name like Nike for that price unless you want second hand, try Value Village.
I would try Payless Shoes if I were you, they have some cute stuff for cheap.
the nike lights are pretty cool and they are good for running
$25 for name brand shoes….you won’t be getting shoes that are of high quality, even if you shop at an outlet or find some online. If you’re using these shoes for more than just a fashion accessory, convince your mom that $25 isn’t going to cut it (or work out a deal to cover some of the cost as others have suggested), and could potentially injure you. I played competitive tennis from the age of 12 to college, and have pulverized pairs of $30-$40 tennis shoes within a week.
To answer your question though, if you can wait for shipping, check out eastbay.com or finishline.com. Those are two of my favs, and they usually have some sweet deals/discounts going on. And, to be honest, often the more functional a sports shoe is, the more expensive it will be and relatively less attractive.
Happy shopping
