I thought that 'sneakers' were actually canvas shoes of the type that we call plimsolls or pumps, or even in more trendy circles - deck shoes. Is it true that they are actually trainers?? I thought that 'sneakers' was quite an old term and 'trainers' are relatively new. Is there an American out there that can enlighten a confused limey?
