I saw the title of this thread, and was seriously going to suggest the Janoski not knowing you had some in mind. I got mine for school 8 months ago they're extremely comfortable, durable, and look so damn classy. We had a Physics lab to see who's shoes had the best traction by seeing how steep of a slope you could get before your shoe slid, my Janoskis were the best, and won me some sweet sweet candy. Also awesome for biking, skateboarding, longboarding, semi formal events, and just being that guy with the dressy skate shoes. Definitely going to buy another pair of these for next year!
