Skateboarding destroys my shoes. Like around my left toe, where I slide, it tears my shoes up. Is there any way to fix this? I hate buying new shoes all of the time.

Shoegoo, but it still won't last forever. It's a part of skateboarding.

buy some shoes with a durable material in the toe. Emerica Heretic 2's lasted longer for me. But i would try out some nike zoom tres. The material they are made out of is so strong. But ripping shoes is part of the whole skating process
