After buying a $70 pair of Vans at famous footwear and having them literally fall apart after using them as daily walking shoes, I’ve realized the quality of shoes overall has gone down over the last decade or so....
For skate style shoes I’m a fan of Nike SB and Lakai. Anything over about $70 will generally last. My Nike Shane Premiums have walked all over Europe and are still in great condition.
I also recommend Vessi. They’re waterproof, breathable, comfortable, and my wife and I wore them in all sorts of rough use cases and they are still going strong years later.
Shoes that dont wear out and start falling apart after a year?
