First, I'm using these in a suburban environment. I cannot comment on using them for true hiking, but my kids and I do a lot of urban exploring which involves both paved and natural ground, dry and wet with algae surfaces.
The fit of these is nice, with a wide rounded toe box. They aren't super padded and cushy (which I like), but they have a firm supportive sole that provides some give on hard surfaces. If you like a really cushy shoe, you probably won't care for these. I would describe the experience of walking on pavement as similar to walking on a lawn barefoot.
The thing that is my favorite, though, is the tread pattern. They have great grip, are nonmarking, and don't squeak. But the treads are broken up in a way that allows my foot to flex and bend naturally without the shoe getting in the way.
A bonus I didn't really expect is that they breathe nicely and even in 100* temps, my feet aren't uncomfortably sweaty or hot.
TLDR; These shoes meet all of my needs for urban exploring adventures, while keeping my feet and ankles happy.
