Got a passion for buying sneakers? It could be a good sign, with a poll finding that people who buy three pairs of sneakers or more year are far more likely to be a leadership type than other people。
Mindset Media, a media company that examines personality traits of different consumers, found that people who buy more than three pairs of sneakers a year are 61% percent more likely to have the qualities of a modern leader。
Lauren Arvonio, a spokeswoman for Mindset Media, said sneakers were more likely to fly by the seat of their pants。
“思维”媒体公司的女发言人劳伦?阿芙尼奥说爱买运动鞋的人在毫无头绪的情况下,更倾向于自己摸索行事。
“It is often said you can tell a lot about a person by the shoes he wears, and now we have some hard data to back that up,” Arvonio told reporters。
“What’s interesting is that these personality traits held true across the board, regardless of age, income, or gender。”

Previous Mindset Media surveys found that people who pay their credit card bills off each month were more likely to be “highly deliberate”, thinking through their actions, but also less modest than others, likely to brag about their habits。
