WHICH SNEAKERS TO BUY ?

Yeh a cross trainer seems to be what you're after. I've got the Nike Vomero's and I like them for running, but not sure what they'd be like to fight in lol

i think yer a spamer... and i'd say your sig site is fake as... watching you...

high tops... well you can, but there not so good for that, heavy and designed to help with lateral side to side movement and stopping and ankle support not general running.
running shoes are fine for running and walking.. and i'm sure you could fight in them, but there not designed for that...
a cross trainer doesn't do anything well, but does everything OK, you can run in them, walk in them i guess fight, they have cushioning and support.

thing is, if you use 1 shoe for all those things, every day, its not going to last long no matter waht you buy...

what type or fighting is it, like in a ring, or some street rawkus, indias rough, i saw this dude next to my grandmas place getting the kicked shit out of him becuase he tried to steal the neighbours fridge or somethin.

but like mik said, any cross trainer will do.. to be honest... 2km's isn't far to walk, any simple runner will do, like from asics or where ever. when i'm sparring etc i prefer to go barefoot, so we probs need to know more about what type of fighting you do. high tops are no good to run in as well.. so stay away from them

No, no ring, only if someone want to fight with me on street, road etc. BTW, I never get involved in a fight, I try to avoid it and it works but you know some guys are total a**holes.

India's rough and Indian roads are rough too. Some are broken, a fine percentage is incomplete (like raw and sharp rocks spreading all over the road), some are full of mud running over them.  Walking and running on such rough roads require some special attention, especially when it comes to fight at such places.

I practice punching and kicking barefoot.  Sometimes, to be realistic, I do wear shoes to learn to kick (in the air, not on the bag). Regarding walking, i measured the average distance I use to walk, it comes to 5 KM actually and unlike others I walk little faster.

I just want to to know the type of the shoes, not the expansive brand names like NIKE, Adidas, Lotto, Reebok, they are too expansive to be bought, at least for me.

Just curious what part of india you from?
Roads like you speak of, no running shoe would last long, need some heavy duty boots with steel caps/souls. Maybe some nike acg footwear would suffice for a bit or footwear along those lines.

Hey.. hey..... nice joke on me . Anyway, Indians roads are a mix of very fine and broken and some full of water roads in cities. I live in Hyderabad, so I see them every weekend whenever I go for an outing. The only roads which are great are the Fly-Overs ones, they never ever break. I have found none so far.  In towns, roads are full or half made + broken + fine ones,  in villages there are no roads, well sometimes there are.

I don't need steel caps or those Oakley shoes. I think I like Nike ACG,  what are they for anyway ?

and what about the Hiking shoes, can they be used for normal walking on the roads, comfortably ?
