How can I Convince my mom?

I am 13 and I want some new shoes.i want to make money. My parents usually buy me everything (I'm not spoiled) I just work for my stuff. I get 2 new pairs of shoes at the beginning of the school year. I was going to buy the more expensive ones just to show responsibility, dedication ect. They are $140 I want to make about $100 for now because I have 100 now. I just want some extra money just to have. I don't necessarily need them but they will improve my running form, stance ect. The shoes are expensive and I want to convince my mom to let me buy them. She usually says I don't need them or something..... Please answer! Ty!

    Show your dedication for running/ track/ whatever you want them for. Look responsible (so it shows you will take care of them.) Like keep your room clean every night, do all chores needed to be completed around the house. Be a determined figure/example, this will probably convince your mom. And don't forget that really super sweet constant attitude!!! (no brats allowed)

    Haha, my nicknames Ty, so you should say, "It's my money and I'll spend it on shoes, because im always gonna need shoes" and think about it, she buys you shoes anyways, I'd think that our parents would appreciate us buying our own stuff for once, duhh...
