Trainers Shoes

Athlectic shoes is also called trainers shoes is a generic name for footwear designed for sporting and physical activities, and is different in style and build than dress shoes.

Athletic shoes, depending on the location and the actual type of footwear, can also go by the name trainers shoes (British English), sandshoes, gym boots or joggers (Australian English) running shoes, runners or gutties (Canadian English, Australian English, Hiberno-English), sneakers, tennis shoes (North American English, Australian English), gym shoes, tennies, sport shoes, sneaks, or takkies (South African English) and rubber shoes (Philippine English).

The term trainers shoes is used for running in a marathon or half marathon, basketball, and tennis but tends to exclude shoes for sports played on grass such as football and rugby, which are generally known as “boots”, or in North America as cleats.

The shoes themselves are made of flexible compounds, typically featuring a sole made of dense rubber. While the original design was basic, manufacturers have since tailored athletic shoes for the different purposes that they can be used for. A specific example of this is the spiked shoe developed for track running. Many of these shoes are made up to a very large size because of athletes with large feet.
