What can be considered as a sneaker?

Nowadays, sneakers are often used to refer to rubber shoes and athletic shoes that can be worn for sports and as casual shoes for daily life. The first few shoe brands to use the term sneakers were Keds and Converse, on which the latter unveiled the legendary Chuck Taylor All-Stars as a basketball shoe, and now a lifestyle staple sneaker.

In the modern era, Air Jordans, Yeezys, Puma, New Balance, ASICS, Nike, and other brands are the widely known sneaker brands that manufacture rubber shoes for different purposes such as performance sports, lifestyle, and even hiking.
