men skate shoes

I have been wearing my second pair of 'Rowley' vans shoes for about three months now. They are my primary pair of shoes; I have worn them while hiking, skateboarding, and everyday walking. They have held up in good condition, after three months of use, the only damage is to the bottom sole and left side (most likely the damage can be attributed to skateboarding).
Initially, i bought my first pair because i like the way the style; my brother had a pair, and he made the recomendation. After my first pair wore out, I purchased my second pair because I was pleased with the performance of the shoes.
The best attribute to this product is the price and durablity; In comparison with other "skateboard" style shoes, this model is very affordable. They also are strong and they held up well to the abuse i put them up against.
The only set back to this shoe, for me, was the thickness of the tounge; for the first few days i wore the shoe, i had a hard time adjusting to the tounge, but it quickly became managable.
