i got a pair of Adio Bam's and had to pay like 80 bucks. not even a month later the laces were being sawed away and a hole was forming near the toe cap. a year later or so, it looks like my ollie foot got hit my a truck. u think my griptape is a shoe killer or are u just paying for the name and not for performance?

In my opinion, all shoes never last long enough. It totally depends on how much you skate. Shoes ussually last me about 3 months, then the soles are too thin and my feet start to hurt when skating. Right now I am skating circa's and I ussually skate crica or DC.

yeah suede and leather last long....adio does make good shoes..but it depends on what they use...you also got to think about when you walk your foot is lossening the treads in the shoes ...just by walking so things like that matter..also shoe comps are coming out with lace protectors..because shit-uped laces and broke ones are a new thing in skateboarding witht all those flippy wheel tricks you guys do lol
i say all shoes have pros and cons but it depends on your skaten or what else you do with them
yeah, i hate it when my lacs get ripped. i spend more money on them than i do on the shoes! lol

i personally dont like adios at all.
I really like my Emericas, they are holding up pretty good. I had Circa a couple years ago, and i loved them.
 
The bottoms of Adios seem to fall apart pretty quick... i wouldnt recomend them to anyone.
Never let anyone tell you you're not worth it.

Adios are usually crappy but the Kenny Andersons are really good cuz they have a lil pad at the toe so they dont get messed up.and they have extra slots for laces so they dont get cut.but other adios suk

i got the starks. like any shoe they hold up about as long as your style permits, if you skate alot they are going to wear quick. skateboarding is just a show killer. PERIOD.

I remember the days when skate shoes favoured function over fashion.

skate shoes are designed to break down after a certain length of time.  no matter what you buy they are always going to wear through.  i reccommend getting a pair of shoes based on performance.  i like wearing mids or highs to protect my ankle and for added support.  i also like super grippy materials so the board does what i want.  circa make the grippiest shoes i find and they mould to your feet really quick. dcs with super suede last longer and have pretty good grip but they pack out like a bag of dirty laundry, if you get dcs, dont bother getting anything besides lynx, avatars or mantecas.  supras last forever but they are bulky, and lakai blow out fast but they skate really well, same with nike sb's. 
my top shoes in no particular order:
circa: ali
dc: avatar
dc: lynx he
lakai: marc johnson highs
nike: sb dunks
suede suede suede
skateboard
snowboard

Es and Emerica =
 
When i first started skating, I wore Etnies.  The shoe cap and laces ripped in 2 weeks and they didnt have much grip on the griptape. $50 down the drain.
