My girlfriend bought me some Adidas Stan Smith Skateboarding (suede with rubber toe cap).

After 6.5 years of LOTS of use they’ve finally started to break. The sole is separating from the shoe.

I can’t speak for the normal or recycled Stan smiths but the Skateboarding ones have been brilliant! They also came with the best insoles that I’ve regularly swapped into other shoes when wearing smarter or less comfortable shoes for longer periods (though those insoles are a bit sticky and take some getting used to).
