Designer Sneakers for Women

Women’s Designer Sneakers and you

There’s something about them that resonates within you. Your inner strength, your deep sense of commitment, and the quiet, strong person in you. Somehow, they just become you. Outgoing person that you are, we can see you slipping your feet into them and setting out for a jog or a session at the gym, or just taking a stroll.

Sneakers by any other name, are still sneakers

It is hard to imagine that almost a century and a half has elapsed since the first sneakers appeared on the scene. With the rubber soles that they featured, they produced hardly any sound when they  were used, unlike the leather shoes which were worn then, almost exclusively. It’s from this soundless experience that the sneakers seem to have got their name. And though they were as famously known by other names such as trainers, tennis shoes, runners or gym shoes, sneakers came to be the accepted name for them.

Essentially intended to provide a comfortable feeling for the feet, sneakers soon found their way into sporting arenas, where they found acceptance in tennis, athletics and the net ball games. Both men and women donned them, and it became the done thing to own a pair of sneakers if you had an outgoing lifestyle. Moving on, they also became a part of the music scene, with bands of both sexes wearing them onstage at outdoor gigs.

Women’s Sneakers

It’s interesting to see how women look on sneakers. For those who wear heels or stilettos, sneakers came as a welcome relief after hours of stressing their feet. As their fashion sense took over, it became the done thing for them to own more than one pair of women’s sneakers, so that they could pair it with their attire. As their popularity increased, the term ‘sneakerheads’ was added to the English lexicon, representing those who boasted of a ‘sneaker collection.’
