I say "teni shoes" instead of "tenis shoes". Is that right?

When written, I write "tennis shoes" but pronounce it "teni shoes".

Only cross trainers I wear are really running shoes and I only wear them exercising.

Do you mean real tennis shoes? Or do you use that interchangeably with running shoes?

Good point - everyone can set their own ground rules.

I do have a pair of running shoes that I do not personally count as tennis shoes.

If you got a hook-up with UA, why you have to pay so much for them?

1. $70-$100
2. Three pairs: 1. Yard work or working outside. 2. Workout 3. Casual --- each shoe starts as casual then gets demoted to yard work as new shoes are purchased
3. Academy

$130ish. Sucks having rowdy flat feet.

2-3. The "good" everyday pair. The used to be good, but not yet crappy, gym/around the house pair. Eventually they move into yard/garage work. I think there's three pairs of shoes and a pair of boots in the garage by the door in various stages of wear, mud, and tar.

Amazon or New Balance store

I spend whatever they cost at the time, usually on Amazon. I don't wear tennis shoes much at all, other than to the gym and to run in. I have a few kinds that I know I like and what fits, so when it comes time to buy them I just get on Amazon and push a few buttons.

After I buy a new pair, the old ones go to the garage to use when I work in the yard etc.

I have three pair in rotation. One pair of Nikes my cousins agent sent me, a pair of NB minimus that are light AF and were a gift, and a pair of low top chucks. So I've got $35 of my own money in tennis shoes.

I usually spend between $100-150. I have about 15 pairs that I keep in constant rotation.

That's true tennis shoes, not Chucks or other canvas based shoes.
