In real tea I call the shoes I work out in running shoes since that's what I work out in. If I'm referring to regular shoes not for exercising, I just call them shoes. Nicer shoes are dress shoes.

I grew up with the term tennis shoes but thought it was inaccurate and discarded it at an early age. srs
