Looks great, and it is probably comfortable, I sent the boots back because they were too small
They are very comfortable. They finally had to be retired after a little over two years the waterproof seal broke and the tread was wearing thin.
Wear size 11 and fit very well. Nice light weight work boot to walk the site
Good boots
I've had these for 2 1/2 years and they have developed a noise that sounds like wet squishy boots. My boots are dry and waterproof but the noise is annoying especially while I'm working my construction job. Out of warranty so I'll deal with it but I won't buy the Portland model again or the flex fit.
Great boots
Ordered one pair of boots, they were a little small but also had a bunch of defects on the exterior and craftsmanship was poor. I exchanged for half size bigger which did not have all the exterior defects and left shoe fit well. I didn’t try or wear the right boot far about a week or two but the right inner lining on top of the toe was pealed down and I can feel it rubbing the top of my toe.For what it is boot could be a five star if quality control was better.One important thing to note is that these boots design is exactly on point! Super light and very comfortable, it’s a nice boot that feels more like a tennis shoe on your foot so for light work it’s awesome. For construction on and off ladders, underground work and heavy construction I’d say it’s too light with almost no foot support like a typical redwing or equivalent
Never before have I received such an uncomfortable boot from Keen! And I don’t know if these are factory rejects Amazon is selling or what but this boot is severely uncomfortable in the heel area. I have had several pairs of these in the past and never experienced this issue.
