Probably gonna pick up some of these, I looked at the shimano ones but the fact that these are compatible with straps makes them spot on for fixed riding to gigs etc

For some reason I want these, but I'm still trying to work out when you'd use these.

For eg on my road bike I've got LOOK keo and if I needed to just take it out quickly (which isn't really that likely) I'm OK with sucking up the inconvenience. If I took it out for longer then I'd use shoes and probably have a bag anyway for a lock, etc.

On my fixed I'm now running 2 brakes and sometimes SS, so I guess it would make it easier for the summer if I want to wear flip flops...

I guess as it's a simple design that is universal so you can buy a pair and just pop them away somewhere. You still need to buy the cleats and if you have 2 pedal systems change them over.

I just keep coming back to the idea that it's a solution to an non-problem.
