User Reviews
I purchased these shoes in size 11.5 for my long commute walks to and from work in the elements to protect my dressier shoes that I wear with a suit while at office.These shoes are more comfortable and provide much better traction than my dress shoes. Keen materials and build quality is always top notch. I've never been disappointed with the wear of their products and these look to be no exception.These shoes run a tad large compared to other 11.5 size shoes so there is plenty of width and length.
I’m a diehard Keen shoe customer, and these only made me even more loyal. I have wide feet and when I first put them on I was skeptical as they felt snug, but once the leather was broken in they feel perfect! I needed a comfortable, durable work shoe my feet wouldn’t get wet in while being in the rain (I did however treat them with lots of a beeswax based leather treatment applied with a hair dryer. It makes the leather more water proof and it seals the stitching so water won’t wick into the shoe. It also keeps leather soft). Laces are a weak point when it comes to water intrusion. I can also slip them on and off easily going into customer homes.
A Keen devotee for almost 20 years, this is the best pair of Keen shoes that I've bought in a long time. They fit my feet like a glove, give great support and stability, and keep my feet from the elements in any kind of condition. These shoes are an excellent combination of comfort and utility.Alas, the greatest strength of these shoes also bring a weakness: they are very difficult to get on, and are definitely not a "slip-on". The fit is so snug that it's virtually impossible to get them on without a shoe horn, and even then, I usually have to jam my finger inside the top and pull out the tongue, which folds over every time I put them on.If you can get by the work of getting them on, these shoes will be great support wherever your feet take them.
Good casual shoe.
Feet right, plus very confortable .
They fit a little snug at first but they also stretch out a bit after they are broken in. Nice shoes.
I've been wearing these for months now and with no wax or cleaning other than brush it on the back of my leg, they work for me. I use these walking everyday.
I’m happy with the sole inside and out. Inside is comfortable and the outside is durable. The only downfall is the stitching. My first pair I had no complaints about. They lasted almost 2 years. I have Large feet so shoes are hard to come by. My second pair were great, until the stitching came undone and the toe started to separate. They lasted about a year. My new pair has lasted about 5-6 months and the stitching is already failing. I think it’s time to search for another brand.
