Nimitys "sneakerit" on nykyisen tiedon perusteella lähtöisin jo vuodelta 1887, jolloin The Boston Journal -lehti viittasi sneakereihin "nimenä jonka pojat ovat antaneet tenniskengille".
The word was already in use at least as early as 1887, as The Boston Journal made reference to "sneakers" as "the name boys give to tennis shoes."
Sneakerit (muita nimityksiä: lenkkikengät, "lenkkarit", tenniskengät, "tennarit", urheilukengät, juoksukengät tai treenikengät) ovat kenkiä, jotka on alun perin tarkoitettu urheiluun, mutta ovat nykyisin suosittuja arkikenkiä.
Sneakers (also called athletic shoes, tennis shoes, gym shoes, sport shoes, runners, or trainers) are shoes primarily designed for sports or other forms of physical exercise, but which are now also widely used for everyday wear.
