So what do you call them: sneakers, athletic shoes, running shoes, tennis shoes, trainers, gutties, other?
Also, where are you from (only be as specific as you're comfortable being)?
I'm from West Virginia, and I've always called them tennis shoes, regardless of whether they're intended for playing tennis.

It depends on what your using the shoe for! If your a runner then a running shoe If your just going to the gym a crosstrainer If they are just an everyday shoe I would call them just shoes

Running shoes - Indiana. When I grew up in the 70s we called them gym shoes but that was when we were still in school.
