Make these shoes in a wide then will talk!
"Dear Keen Co. What happened to your Portsmouth and Piedmont collections?? Believe me I understand things change, styles change but the wide toe boxes were your staple. Now your making many shoes with the Carbon Toe etc. . maybe that’s a good vertical market for the company -but if your changing direction with the type of shoe your designing make them for non work industrial environments as well as in wide. I am a 14 4e, own my own advertising/marketing firm. The KS86 would be cool to wear with a hoodie or sport coat-Just make my size Please! Let’s go!"

Great style, not-so-great execution.
"I own 3 pairs of Keens. They’re awesome if you have foot issues. When I first saw these, I thought they were super cool, and then I noticed they were Keens, so I had to have them. First issue: I ordered my size and they were too big. I had to go a half-size down. Second issue: they aggravate my plantar fasciitis, which Keen shoes should not do. Something about the footbed is off. Sucks because these SHOULD be my everyday kicks, but I’ve kept them just for the style and occasional wear. Fine-tune these KEEN, and I’ll buy a few different colors, and replace them yearly. Please."

Sneakers Are Awesome
"I've purchased and worn Keen hiking boots for many years. I just purchased my first pair of sneakers not knowing what to expect and they are a great fit for my achy feet. The shoes are really comfortable for me and I'll gladly buy another pair."
— Josh C. (5/5)
Q&A
What's the heel-drop on this shoe?
Heel-to-toe drop – 18 in / 0.7 mm
Is there a difference in the fit between the Men's and Women's KS86? I like the men's color options better than the women's but don't want to buy without knowing if there are any changes to the fit.
The width is different. Men's regular width will fit like a women's wide width.
