Why are sneakers called sneakers?

Sneakers are also known as athletic shoes, tennis shoes, gym shoes, runners, or trainers. They are primarily designed for sports or physical exercise, yet are now more commonly used for everyday wear and even for fashionable purposes.

Sneakers generally refer to footwear with a flexible sole and an upper part made of leather or synthetic materials. They also are a huge part of athleisure and streetwear nowadays.
