The history of the meme
The internet has long used the slang word "snuck" to describe funny or strange shoes. Since the beginning of the 2000s, the term “crept” appears from time to time in various collections of funny pictures.
There is a non-zero probability that “sneaked up” is just a literal translation of the English word “sneakers”. In English, this is the name for sneakers, and it comes from the verb “to sneak”. So "snickers" or trainers are the same as "sneaks" or "creeps".
