lol you can't just say one shoe is the best. Gotta build your own opinion by trying out different shoes.
I personally like vans half cabs the most, but that's just me.

When I used to skate(over 10 years ago) I would just wear my chuck Taylors.

My all time favorite skate shoe was the reynolds 3, particularly this colorware. They didn't last that long but they skated so fucking good!!
Close 2nd would be these bad boys, they lasted me almost 2 years!!! Although I wasn't skating as much as I used to. Every pair of fallen's I have ever had has lasted for fucking ever.

dvs, adio, and especially circa shoes are my favorites to skate with. some of them have good grip and side guard and the price is always fair imo.
something like this
i actually use to own those shoes. you want that tall side guard. usually only your shoe laces will need to be replaced after a while.

they're actually quite small in real life.
seriously tho, any show that is slim and good enough grip on the sides, like the lakais, will do. i have owned many good skating shoes but never remember the brands. i just feel them out and thats it. i was skating with jordans for awhile, they were actually quite good.
whatever shoe fits right and isn't too expensive. if you want to find just the right ones you are going to have to feel them out.

Lol I remember when skate shoes used to be giant and puffy like that I used to love circa but I think They've really gone down hill lately, Same with adio. I actually have two pairs of DVS that I got for 15 bucks each there really good and have lasted quiet a while.
I bought this show twice in middle school. Circa used to be the shit!
All this talk of shoes makes me miss all the cool pairs I had. I'm like a girl I fucking love shoes

Kids who didn't own skateboards bought those, and kids who did laughed at them and called them posers.

Glad I don't remember those. Think that was before my time. The worst I had to deal with were DC's. I remember there were literally 100's of kids with the exact same ugly ass DC's just with different colors, and none of them skated. I miss being a skater it was fun stuff.

Kids in middle school minding their own business? First I've ever heard of that. Middle school was a vicious fucking jungle round here.
I loved calling people out for pretending to be something they were not.

I guess sooo.. Like I still Skate from time to time. What I miss skating down the side of the road with my gang of skater buddies doing what ever the fuck we wanted. I miss carrying a skateboard around school and caring enough to start shit with someone if they dissed on skating. Idk IM too busy with work school and drugs now I can't really dedicate much time to it and my friends are the same way

Nike have made great skate-specific shoes for a decade now, and they're legit in the community despite some bitter people. They do lots for skateboarding.

I like DC their shoes fit my wide feet better than many others and they always have good padding compared to something like vans which have minimal padding and protection. That's with the exception of the half cab though which is one of the best. Either im just getting old or they are making skate shoes slimmer and more uncomfortable now, I mis 'ES. They were like pillows on your feet.

Yeah, Nike SB's are pretty sick and they last a long time; I still have a decently in shape pair that I got in 9th grade.
I personally like the Vans Chukka Low. They're super grippy and flexible, but can be pretty uncomfortable until you break them in.

This. Nike skating shoes have the best grip around IMO. They last a long time.

I think regular SB line was slightly better quality. The classic dunks, prods, janoski, kostons are popular ones.
