Keen rates first, again!

I wanted a pair of hiking shoes that were less bulky than boots but held up to rugged use, and waterproof. Normally, I would not buy footwear without trying them on. But Keen has always fit well and have been comfortable from Day 1, so I trusted these to be right. And they are. My daily walk takes me up and down steep hills and through a creek twice. They have been totally waterproof, and comfortable going up and down hills. I did try on other brands, but they never compare favorably to Keen on comfort. The shoes arrived quickly. Thank you REI, from a member of 45 years.

comfortable and waterproof

I bought this to bring with me to Japan as I wanted a shoe to keep me warm and also are comfortable to withstand the daily 20K steps. They did hold up and was comfortable and kept my feet dry during the rains. I had wide feet too, and they were fine.

Seam on heel wearing thru in less then a year

I loved these shoes at first, they were exactly what I was looking for. But less than a year with them and I’m now getting blisters on my heel. There is a seam that runs horizontal along the heel and it’s starting to wear thru and rubbing causing blisters. I’m super disappointed in short life that these shoes had.

Comfort from day 1

I bought these on the same day we started a RV trip, which was full of hiking adventures. They were great right out of the box! They were comfortable and my feet felt secure for miles of hiking!

Narrow Toe Box

Bought a pair in December. Ordered online. Weather has kept me off of the trails a lot. Started having pain in the ball of my foot. Side of my foot when I took them off. Took a 2 mile walk on the trails 2 days ago. Was limping by the time I got back. Ive worn Keens for years. First time I've had a problem. For me, these are unwearable. Cute though

Amazingly comfortable

Love these shoes! Finally I can trek up, down, and around the dirt roads in the area without worrying about slip-sliding down. They also worked well on my recent trip to the ocean, where I was climbing over rocks at one of the the trails that ran alongside the water.
