Thread: Sneakers

Hey there
Anyone know how do people in Latin America refer to the word sneakers? I know "zapatillas" and "tennis".. But which would be the most neutral way of calling them?

Thanks a million.

Joselas,
i cannot tell you the most neutral way, but i can tell you that in argentina we call them "zapatillas" and in uruguay " championes"

Hi Joselas!, what about "zapatos deportivos"?...i think it's a neutral option...

Hey! Thanks so much guys! I think I ll go with zapatos deportivos.. Sounds more neutral than the uruguayan option =)

Kind regards,
