I was shopping in a sporting goods store over the weekend and wandered into the sneaker department. I did not need new sneakers but I just wanted to see what was out there. When I was young there were two kinds of sneakers. Keds and Converse. Boys mostly wore the Converse. They were goofy looking high tops and only came in black. The girls wore the Keds. The only time we wore sneakers was on gym days and on weekends. On gym days, we were not allowed to wear our sneakers to school. We had to bring them and change into them during gym class. Girls would carry them separately, but boys would tie the sneakers together by their laces and throw them over their shoulders. Now, sneakers are as mainstream as shoes. They are worn everywhere and by everyone. From infants to senior citizens. The thing I find funny is that now there are various types of sneakers. We have running sneakers, walking sneakers, aerobics sneakers, basketball sneaker, jogging sneakers and sitting sneakers. Just joking about the sitting sneakers. Now I have a dilemma. What if someone is out for the day in their walking sneakers and needs to run across the street. Is that illegal?
