we use the word "tennis shoes" here and "sprinkles" for ice cream i've learned are called "jimmies" there. i think it's an east coast/west coast thing.

i never say tennis shoes. ever. i say sneakers, sneaks, kicks or loafaz.

sneakers make way more sense than tennis shoes...you dont JUST play tennis in em. sneakers is a much broader term.
