Most durable skate shoes?

I have Lakai Manchesters right now and I wore them down really fast. What brand does everyone use that has the best quality and lasts long???

p.s. please don't say (eg.) Nikes just cause those are the only ones you've ever had, and only comment if you've skated a variety of shoes

    Ok... I have skated many shoes (lakai cairo select, osiris duffel, osiris chino low, globe sabaton, dvs luster, fallen chief mid, fallen slash and I am currently skating Emerica Jerry Hsu 2 fusions)

    In my opinion the Emerica's are the most durable (they are an sti fusion sole.. which is when everything is one big piece so that means no sole blowouts.) Also it is all suede and doesn't have a lot of panels to rip. The Hsu's are 60-70 dollars but if you find them on sale I would really recommend them.

    Source(s): They have been lasting me longer than any other shoe (excluding when I started skating)

    i ride bmx but i used to skate for a while and i'd say if you want more durable go for the like chunky skate shoes. DC's, osiris, Adio, Etnies are probably my favourite makes but that's just me.. their very durable and really comfortable, dont get nike SB cause their soo ugly and quite sh*t to be honest.. :)
