    How can you show your personality without saying a word? Clothes and shoes may help you a lot. You can let your fashion do the talking, while your sneakers(球鞋) do the walking.

    The sneaker culture we live in today first started in the 1980s. At that time, basketball became more popular in the US and abroad. Many clothing brands began to tie their sneakers to basketball stars. Even today, we see lots of sports stars wearing the latest shoes in TV ads.

    However, basketball sneakers are not only for athletes. They're also popular with young people. Sneakers are not only comfortable to wear, but also encourage kids to create. Students can take part in design-your-own-sneaker competitions. They are given blank, white shoes like an artist's canvas(画布). Then it is up to them to create their own sneaker artwork using pens and paint.

    In Britain, students can also design their own sports shoes online before buying them, including colors and patterns. Sneakers in the US are more than simply shoes to wear them for school or sports. Many Americans collect them, too. People who collect sneakers even have a club for themselves. They're called "sneaker heads".
