I love these boots. I typically wear a pair of work boots for a year and then buy another type just to keep trying styles and brands. That has now stopped, I have worn mine for over a year for work, electrician, and they just keep going on the comfort and durability levels. I have had most all other big named work boots in this format. These have a wide toe box so when bending or squatting my little piggies don't get all crunched up. But wait, there's more, I can tie these dudes 1 time in the morning, and they stay tied up all day like a kinky, freaky girlfriend. I absolutely love these boots.

This was my second pair of these shoes. First pair lasted one year. Second pair NOT slip and oil resistant! Like walking on ice. Fell on the job twice! If you are a mechanic. DO NOT BUY THIS SHOE! Could not contact seller! States one year warranty???

Ordered these for my brother. They Arrived today. My brother said They are very comfortable. Water proof made well and don’t even have to break them in. Will wear at work tomorrow. Hoping they last a few years. Only thing he didn’t care for was the white strip.

I LOVE these boots! Best ones I've ever owned in 40+ years. Just bought a new pair after 1 1/2 years only because I have a messed up left foot that needs orthotics. They are very stable with a quick break in time. I use them for work and hiking. They are more comfortable than my running shoes. I heavily slathered them with mink oil so they are more water proof. Buy 52" non-breakable laces at the same time...you'll need them. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AK9EWLY?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

These boots are quite comfortable except that a very sloppy built-up stitch where the tongue gusset attaches to the main part of the upper on one of the boots created a pain point on my instep. I was able to flatten the offending stitching enough to eliminate the discomfort. The combination of the out-mid-and-insoles was as comfortable on the soles of my feet as any boots I've worn. Unfortunately, the thin bottom layer of the outsoles wore through at the heels pretty quickly, and the outsoles separated from the mid-soles at the toes (which I successfully repaired with polyurethane construction adhesive). The durability of the leather uppers was fine. The inbuilt waterproofing was inferior to that in other boots I've had; until I applied mink oil to the uppers, my feet would get wet from walking in wet grass. I've decided to buy a similar design from another brand for my next pair of work boots.

I have the 8" safety toe as a workboot. They are the most comfortable boots I have ever owned. I occasionally wore them casually as a result.Bought the 6" soft toe specifically as a casual winter boot. The shorter height is stiff and chafes my ankle a bit. Hopefully they soften up. Not sure if the pair I received was a second (price was very cheap), but the toe shapes are slightly mismatched. Fit is the same, more of a cosmetic thing.

I contacted Keen direct to confirm the boot size I would require, as they are not sold locally. I purchased on their recommendation, and they fit me perfectly. No wear in was needed. I slipped my foot into the most comfortable boot I have ever worn. Couldn’t be happier.

La calidad del calzado superó por mucho mi expectativa! Compré "soft toe y ancho normal" ya que las usaría como calzado diario, enviaron las botas con casquillo y doble ancho, si bien eran mi número la apariencia era exageradamente grandes; se devolvieron sin ningún problema pero al intentar volver a solicitar la compra original subió de precio. Excelente calidad!

I start with the only potential issue, which is moreso trade-related than footwear related. As an apprentice plumber, I'm on my knees a lot and I forsee that the toe stitching will wear out before the rest of the boot. I know Keen makes great shoes with rubber toes, but I wanted a durable wedge boot to keep mud out of my customers houses after playing in the mud.Once this boot fails, I will buy the Fort Wayne. Someone on reddit convinced me to buy this because it's more durable, but the Fort Wayne is more reinforced on the toes and I think will still hold up long-term digging trenches or dropping molten solder on them.That said, these boots are great. They look sharp and are comfortable and durable. Aside for me perhaps buying the wrong trade-specific boot, I have no complaints. Keen is consistent with their sizing and I never have had to return a pair for that reason. I love the wide toe box that allows for a more stable and natural foot movement. There are plenty of fancy, heavy-duty leather work shoes and boots that I've returned because of the narrow toe. I'm done with that junk and it's one of the things I like about keen. Their hiking boots look a little clunky, but they do a great job of consistently providing a product that caters more towards the natural ergonomics of the human foot. On a related note...The next step would be to offer a zero-drop work boot (Cincinnati, Fort Wayne, etc.). DeWalt has done it. Are you listening, Keen?Overall, this is a wonderful 3-4 season boot (still looking for something different for the Summer heat) and I'd recommend it to anyone in the service trades who has to work outside and also be in their customers' homes, provided you don't kneel a lot.
