I just want shoes that don't fall apart if I walk a lot in them. It seems like most of the popular brands have garbage quality, they start falling apart after just a few months of regular use.

Last pair of Etnies I bought was like 7 years ago and managed to hold up to 4 of those 7 years being used as "work shoes" while I was working a receiving dock at a grocery store for 4 of my 8 hours a day.

The soles are starting to wear a bit but the stitching is still solid and the uppers haven't cracked/split/torn. Its going to be a sad day when I finally need to buy a new pair but for the 75$ US that I spent they have been the most amazingly resilient sneakers I've ever worn.
