They're generally used in really muddy conditions where lots of portaging is required. Used a lot in Cyclocross.

Just got my Shimano and they do seem very nice I have to say especially for the price.

Also looking for MTB shoes at a reasonable price, but trying to find a 13 or 14 size. Most shoes go to a European size 50, which are too small. So I use running shoes. Never owned a pair of cycling shoes, not by choice....( My best is when people start lecturing me on why I should be wearing proper cycling shoes...)
