I've worn skate shoes like these for years from different manufacturers but more recently went with DC.

Like most shoes they were a bit tight around the width of my foot but a couple of days wearing them they settled and now are comfortable enough to wear every day.
Luckily I work in an office were jeans and skate shoes are perfectly acceptable and I even get comments on how cool the laces look as they are pretty bright and stand out from the black.

If you wear skate shoes frequently then I recommend these shoes, had them for months and they still look like brand new, no scuff marks, no frayed laces, no tearing and no loose stitching.
