They look quality I suppose they are the equivalent of Astro Trainers in Football I used to wear them when ground was hard (icy or summer)

Yeah Gobi - but you glide across the ground, so it wouldn't be a problem for you to run in those ^^ ;-) :-) Well done too :-)

Nice one Gobi :-)

I've done the same in similar conditions. Well worn racing flats, Jazaris.

They are a very versatile shoe indeed.

HOD, they are racing flats so not even the grip of an astro trainer
