text: I got these shoes because of their more aggressive tred pattern from my other shoes. They are going to be used for multi-gun competition and I need something that grips well on loose gravel and dirt.  I haven't used them yet, however they feel comfortable. My only complaint is the length of the speed laces. Once on my foot and cinched down, the excess lace is still to long even after tucking them under. Not a show stopper. Just a minor detail. Over all I'm happy with them.
