As a young punk I learned jumping and the general abuse of skateboarding destroys regular shoes. I don't skate nearly enough these days, but I still mainly buy Fallen shoes as they tend to be comfortable for walking+skating and don't just fall apart. I've had some pairs I actually grew out of and gave to my younger brother as they tend to be well made.

I've had good luck with DC and Emerica as well, Vans does make some thicker ones (as opposed to the Converse style) which I got good use out of.
