I have some Y-3 fashion sneakers that I've been wearing pretty often for 5+ years and they are still in good condition (when I bother to clean them, anyway). Maurizi or Rossetti shoes seem to be holding up pretty well, too. On the other hand, originally expensive and equally Italian Malo shoes (granted, I got them at Filene's Basement for pennies on the dollar) seem to be designed purely to look at, but not to actually wear outside.
