Is it possible (sole-wise... not upper mat. or laces).

Also I am currently on my last pair of non-ripped... non swiss cheesed shoes (Lotek Mike Mid's size 13... but I wear a 12, don't judge me haha)

I have been through...
-Nike SB's
-Nike 6.0's
-Vans OTW
-Vans LXVI Edition's
-Osiris
-DC's
-Adio's
-VOX's
-and many more....

I honestly want to try out another set of vans or nike's but I am not sure... what would be a good low to mid top pair that would last long and have a constant grip (I ride brakes by the way)

vans half cab LITE
they are a less padded than normal half cabs, and the black one's toe area is super strong from my experience, after skating and biking for 6 months, they never got a hole in the side or the sole
