So comfortable for heel spur+ plantar fascia
It does take patience. Lots of pain and very narrow until it wore in. But worth it once it’s stretched. Really good support. I usually buy a 7 in all shoes because I am a 6.5M to 6.5W. Everytime you wear it, even around the house or sitting, it stretches a bit.I bought this last minute for a trip to the rainforest. I removed the insert and added my orthopedist’s heel spur + plantar fascia support inserts.Day 1= wore it an hour around apartment and local errands in NyC. It was so tight overall for wide feet and hurt alot. I was very worried bc it was indeed a very tight fit but my toes had enough room at the end of the shoes - not too much space but not squashed.day2: wore it on four hour flight plus probably the entire day including traveling in cars— it was looser but hurt just sitting down because it was too tight for wide feet.Week 1: wore it 1X on a 6AM-11AM birdwatching hike on mostly flat trail in light rain and it was fine (I did have to take out my heel to ease pain every hour or so)Week 2: wore it daily in rainforest — usually on mostly flat trail paths that wraps around a mountain on grass, slate, and some inclines for 2-3 hour hikes daily with minimal discomfort— even on rainy days. Even with plantar fascia and a resolved heel spur flareup, with stretching across different terrain, the discomfort of “new hiking shoes” improved day by day. Not constricting like on day 1-2.Week 3: back in NYC and wore it out of sheer laziness of not wanting to wear work shoes for one mile walks to/from subway and errands. Barely notice these shoes are on my feet. Much better stability and support than my super chunky Pumas.

Great lightweight hiking shoe!
Love these! Super comfy! Wore them hiking on vacation right out of the box which I thought would be a mistake on my part but they were great! True to size and lightweight! Love Keen shoes!

Keen NXIS Evo
These looked like a good replacement for my NXIS Speed. They seem like a quality show but they just didn't feel good on my feet. I returned as they ran really small. Very disappointed!

Waterproof Shoe Wearer
I’m always looking for shoes that are waterproof for our wet climate. These shoes provide good support, a wide toe box, and have excellent traction. I gave 4 stars, because they lack cushioning; contrary to be compared to a running shoe in the description. There were enough reasons to keep them, and I select other shoes to wear for extended walking/hiking. The dusty pink color is lovely and neutral enough to wear with many clothing items.

Super Comfortable, and not bulky!
I really liked that these were so comfortable, good hiking tennis shoes and still fashionable. I didn't want anything bulky and ugly, and these were perfect. I do have narrow feet and they fit really well. So if you have wide feet, they might be too tight for you. I used these all over New Zealand and was so glad to have them. I got rained on a lot and I never had any wet feet!

Comfortable hiker
If you have high arches and need a hiker with a wide toe-box, this is a shoe for you. These are the most comfortable hikers I've ever worn. I have had trouble finding a shoe that doesn't make the top of my foot hurt after a long hike. I was a little worried because I have a narrow heel and they felt a little wide in the heel. They have a system for adjusting the tension on your heel and although it still feels a little loose, I've not had any trouble with rubbing or moving on my heel. The strings are a little slippery and I have sometimes had to re-tie them after I get started as they tend to loosen a little bit. They have great stability and support and wash off easily if you end up in mud. Keen makes a quality shoe and I whole-heartedly recommend these.
