These are cute and great for walking. I got them for travel when I don't have room to carry walking shoes and running shoes. I wouldn't run long distances in them but they are fine for an easy 5k when I'm on vacation. I brought them on a trip to Spain and wore them to walk several miles a day.  Even did a mini hike up the hill at Park Guell with ease. They look nice enough to wear with dark jeans and black trousers too.
