Bought them for work

I got these for work because my red wings fell apart right after the warranty expired. Been wearing them about 3 months, 10 hr days in a fab shop, they are okay for a cheap pair of boots to get you by until that stipend hits

COMFY BOOTS

Most comfortable pair of boots I’ve ever owned. I work in the trades and have tried all brands and styles. These feel like Hokas and have held up very well to the wear and tear of a work environment. Mink oiled them when I got em and couldn’t be more impressed with these.

Super comfortable

After having red wings and being so disappointed at them for not being on par to the name and not as comfortable for the price ($250 before taxes) this ones are way better than expected! They are too comfortable and grabs my foot like a glove. Highly recommended.

Great Boots

Boots fit perfectly for my wide feet. Construction is good and holds up well in a steel mill environment. Very comfortable and I really like the look. Has all the safety components required required for my work conditions.

Great boots but clearly used.

The boots are comfortable and the quality is great like all Keen products are. I'm hoping the waterproofing holds up as well as my last pair did(year and a half). The reason I am giving these 3 stars is because the boots were clearly worn even though I bought "new". There were some scuffs on the top and sides and some white chalky residue on the bottoms. New boots would be clean on the bottom and not all scuffed up. I would return but my old boots are so worn and the snow is getting into the soles making my feet wet and cold.
