He posted "I spotted a kid in my french (sic) class earlier today at school with these (the worn-out shoes) on only because this other guy was making fun of him. So I'm planning on giving him a pair of concord lows (sic), now my question is how do I present it to him without himfeeling like I feel sorry for him?"

According to WRIC, Yaovi Mawuli said that other kids were teasing his classmate about his worn shoes, so he decided to help him get a new pair of the shoes many will wait in line for.  Mawuli asked other "Greensboro Sneakerheads" on Facebook how to go about giving the gift.
