Are they for gong fu only or do you wear them every day?

These were part of an order we did a while back, have been decent overall! Just one of my outdoor practice pairs, mainly for the run out the door to practice kind of thing (and actually another pair of this type is my indoors only shoe.) Though, I tend to prefer things with a much wider toebox and even less material, kit like Vivobarefoot or merrell vaporglove, but those are each stupidly priced.

Also, come to think about it, I practice in nearly every of the shoes that I wear normally. Have always had a preference for flexible, flat shoes anyway; though what I wear on the day to day is very thin, it helps to have just a bit of buffer for gongfu shoes while still maintaining the zero-drop/totally flat shape.
I have to say that I spent many years always hunting for the perfect practice shoes. Every trip I made back to China I would go search as well. Sometimes I came back with treasure. Every good option is eventually discontinued as well. This particular order and model is among the best I ever tried. I have a pair that I used to just walk around in outside, but I never practice outside in those because it would wear them out so fast unless on plain dirt. The others I just horde for indoor use. Practice shoes this good were just a lucky find.
