My answers are pop, sub, tennis shoes, pants, and I checked the profiles of the other posters who answered the same way and they're all from the Midwest. Your sneakers are an outlier :rofl:

Sub, gym shoes, pants. Unless, of course, said pants are (blue)jeans. But, if I want a Coca Cola, specifically, it's "Coke", or in my case, "Diet Coke".
