Not for running, but for almost everything else, Vans and Chucks will last a lot longer. They are great for squatting as well! (100% contact with the ground)
I put a lot of miles on each pair of Vans, they last me ~2 years before the sole gives out, the fabric starts to rip at about the same time.
Anything from Ecco will probably last. I've also never seen any of my Keen stuff fail. Both brands are rather expensive.

- awithrow 7y agoI'm not sure about Chucks. I originally thought the same but the last pair I had developed holes in the top and the soles wore out in less than a year. I don't think I put a ton of miles on them. I'm guessing they sacrificed quality for profit somewhere along the line.
- com2kid 7y agoWhen I was wearing Chucks I got the leather ones. Switched to Vans because they are a little bit wider. Sad if the cheapened out on the soles. I used to wear the leather down before I wore the soles out. (Obviously garbage leather if it got worn out...)
