I bought these mainly for orienteering use and to some extent also for more technical trails. The grip is excellent for a studless shoe and the cushioning of the midsole and insole is more comfortable than in actual orienteering shoes. The heel cup and the back and middle part of the shoe are quite sturdy, but especially the toe part is flexible and firm. The shoes also work with Active Ankle supports 👍 The heel cup is high and quite stiff, and therefore rubbed the Achilles tendon at first. After the first run, I protected the skin with sports tape, so there were no problems. The heel cup also seems to soften somewhat with use. The biggest downside is the quality and durability, which is a bit so-so: the adhesives on the cover start to rip quickly at the folds of the toes and the toes, and the translucent ripstop cover is not quite up to the durability of actual orienteering shoe covers. Similarly, the high studs on the bottom are apparently somewhat sensitive to tearing partially or completely off. In the store, I fitted one shoe where the gluing of the toe part on the inside was already falling apart when it was new.
