Midwesterners-Do you call sneakers/tennis shoes "GYM SHOES" and where are you from?

I grew up in Chicago and my boyfriend (he%26#039;s French) keeps teasing me about calling my Nikes %26#039;gym shoes%26#039; instead of sneakers/tennis shoes/trainers.





Basically I%26#039;m wondering where else outside of Chicago are they called gym shoes? I guess its probably used elsewhere in the Midwest but I%26#039;ve only heard it from Chicagoans.





Also if you%26#039;re from the Midwest and call them something else, where exactly are you from %26amp; what do you call them?
