I just take whatever is on clearance/sale, and switch the insoles (if they suck). HUF, Emerica, Lakai and State is what I mostly get.
The Reynolds shoes are the best in terms of durability, but they do cost $60-80, depending on whether you get the vulcs or cupsoles...don’t know what your budget is but I can’t imagine you spend less than $30-40 on Vans. There are the Reynolds 3 G6 as well, which I haven’t tried, but maybe someone else on here has.
