story about new plimsolls or shoes

can you tell me how to find a story I remember from my youth about a boy who is enjoying the feeling of having a new pair of shoes for the summer. It's all about the magical feeling of going out to play for the first time in his new shoes- that's how I remember it anyway.

Ring any bells?

Many Thanks if anyone can help

The story is actually part of the novel "Dandelion Wine", but exists on its own as the short story "The Sound of Summer Running" in (I think) "R is for Rocket".
