Is des baskets masculine or feminine in French?

"Des baskets" is masculine in French.

Even though "baskets" refers to a pair of shoes, in French, it is considered a masculine noun. You would say:

* Des baskets (masculine plural) - "sneakers"

* Une basket (feminine singular) - "a sneaker"

However, it's important to note that the adjective used to describe the sneakers will need to agree in gender with "baskets".

For example:

* Des baskets rouges - "red sneakers" (red is masculine)

* Des baskets jaunes - "yellow sneakers" (yellow is masculine)

* Des baskets bleues - "blue sneakers" (blue is feminine)
