I use them, they've got the stealth ('sticky') sole designed for using on flats. Quite a chunky sole but not much tread as such, the tread pattern is a series of 10mm circles, which stand out from the sole about 2mm, spaced about 4mm apart. I find them very comfortable and grippy on the pedals.

I ride everything in them, in all conditions :-), they are toasty warm in the winter and I dont notice them getting too hot in summer (but I have some less chunky impact lows or vans for summer use aswell - the vans are better for wearing off the bike so are a bit more versatile from that point of view).
