Extremely comfortable boots

Keen coming thru with that excellent wide toe box! Great boots 👌 only wish they were vegan. Tried Doc Martens first but these are way more comfortable, it’s not even close. I wear a 9.5 regular women’s in Keen sandals and hiking boots, these utility boots fit perfectly

Comfy work boots

Comfortable and supports my arches. Good leather quality. The pull tab makes them easy to pull on.

Feels great

I have been wearing Keens for over 15 years. This is the first time I brought this style. I love this shoe. It feels just like my hiking shoe. I could wear it all day long. I’ll probably buy another pair just to have when these were out.

Great boot but disappointed as a "work" boot

Keens are comfy. I love the anatomically correct toe boxes. Sizes can be tricky at times because of this. I usually wear a wide 7 in my shoes unless they are Altras or Keens or New Balance.These boots fit awesome as soon as I put them on. Spot on or so I thought.After 6 months of wear, the toe box is really stretched out and the laces frayed and became impossible to lace up. Easy enough to order new laces. However the stretching out of the boot's toe box is another issue all together. I should mention that I am really hard on work boots, crawling, climbing, walking on uneven construction terrain, year around. I had to replace my Ariat pull ons because I've worn out the soles and the foot leather is getting worn so much they are liable to burst a seam, toe at any moment. Those lasted 3 years. But I wanted a lace up style to work in, wear out and wear on the motorcycle so after trying multiple Carhart versions of this boot which I loved the look and quality I've seen from other friends who work outside a lot. But my foot is so picky and I could not find them locally to go try.Enter these Keens. I love them except for the quality of the leather, could be thicker, the quality of the laces, step up Keen, and how they have stretched out. They look pretty ugly now since they have stretched out.If I bought again, I would try a smaller size 6.5. I suppose I could add a thicker footbed but that's a bit frustrating and an added cost. I think they are about $50 overpriced for the quality. Keen should not advertise this as a work boot. They simply aren't good in a demanding environment. Maybe if i worked in a warehouse or on a level, smooth or concrete surface all day they could be considered a work boot.

Very nice quality, leather with soft comfort

I have looked far, wide for many, many years to find boots that would equal the super comfortable ones that I purchased in the late 70s to work my new hubby's farm. A neighbor's dog stole them from my garage and I was heartsick for years. These boots are soft, have a cushioned sole and they fit snuggly but comfortably. I finally found my replacement!

Bunion comfort but the tongues are flawed

Needed a sturdy, comfortable boot for some heavy gardening and stonework coming up this spring. Since I’m 67 and have bunions on BOTH sides of each foot I’ve been challenged trying to find comfortable footwear for this. Read pro reviews rating this boot as the most comfortable.Have been buying wide shoes to accommodate my bunions. After reading Amazon reviews about sizing for this boot, I bought a regular width. Hooray!!! These regular width boots fit comfortably. Of course I “broke them in”wearing them around the house and conditioned the leather. Now I’m ready for the yard!Update: Had to return the first pair as the tongues were sewn in wrong and throughout the day would drift to the side of the shoe. How uncomfortable! My ankles became pinched between the tongue and the laces. But I loved the width and sole of these boots. So I exchanged them for another pair. The new pair came today and the new pair have the same problem!! Am so sad. Will be returning them also. No replacement this time.

Best of Many

No contest these are the best pair of work boots I've ever had, and I've had many. Reminds me of the very first Keen sneakers that were a little wider in the toe and narrower in the heel than they tend to be now. I love that. A nice snug fit that grips the heel and mid-foot, with ample toe room is exactly what I want. The fit is true to size for me, I'm a solid 9 across most shoes. Not much in the way of break in was required, just minor adjustments. I've worn them more than 8 hours a day on wet concrete floors since the day I got them. They are really comfortable, and not too heavy, all day long. I can't speak to the longevity, I've had them about three weeks, but they appear to be remarkably well made with nice thick reinforced (though supple) leather all around. Sure wish they could be resoled... But, I have a pair of Keen hiking boots that I've had for almost 10 years, so if these hold up for even half that long I'll call it a win.
