Reviews

Bummer

"I purchased these for an upcoming trip to Europe and have been wearing them for the last week to break them in. The insoles are so thin it feels like cardboard. I wore them all day yesterday and have the worst blisters. They also run incredibly large (at least a half size)."

NARROW

"I wanted to love these shoes so much, I truly would have returned them if I didn't wait a few months before trying them on a wearing them (my bad!). Beware they are so much more narrow than regular Keen shoes!"

I love the shoes but sizing confusing

"I bought these on clearance at a DSW in America. I immediately wore them walking 4 miles and I do really like them. Comfortable from minute one. They seem to be water resistant too? Cause I walked into a puddle and my feet didn't get wet. I have a low arch/flatter feet with pronation and these are very comfortable for me. They are stylish too. I love the deep trending as well. However, the sizing is confusing. I am a women's 10. 5. but these say size 9US/42UK. I think this is going by their gender neutral sizing?? Why are we doing this? It makes sizing unnecessarily confusing. I want to their website cause I wanted to buy more of these but idk what size to get now. Their sizing guide says women's 10. 5 is a UK 41. Their women's 11 is a UK 42. And their gender neutral is US 9 /UK 42 which is what these shoes are. But all their sizing on the shoes are not in the gender neutral category. It's all women or mens. Idk what size I need to get!! I can't answer if they are true to size or are wide or narrow because I have no. idea what size these shoes truly are with the "gender neutral" size on them."

Cute and comfy!

"I love the look of these. They are roomy in the toe Box. I ordered a 1/2 size up and would stick with your normal size. Comfortable for general activities and and running errands."

Really pleased with these shoes.

"Really pleased with these shoes. Very comfortable and good fit. Was disappointed with delivery though. Paid for next day but the shoes arrived 2 days later 😞"

Love these shoes!

"This is the second pair my daughter has owned (she grew out of the first pair). These shoes are very comfortable and are durable. Highly recommended."

Versatile White Sneaker

"I ordered these as a travel sneaker. I wanted a neutral that could walk, hike, be casually worn with almost everything, and was ready to go when we planned our next trip. I did order a half size down and they fit perfectly. There is room in the toe box but they still look sleek. They have enough cushion, but I wouldn’t describe them as “cushiony”. I feel solid and stable wearing them all day. Love the style. I hope I don’t wear them out before we go again."

Traditional not trendy saves the day !

"Wow ! A life saver ! I am going on a vaca to the midlands of SC and then the Outer Banks of NC and my English hiking boots had just given up the ghost after 8 years of faithful service ! I should mention I’m a serious walker ( about 4/5 miles a day is a comfortable stroll for me ) I go at a very fast pace and I’m a heel striker and have high arches and a wide toe box ! I’ve also just gotten over my 5 th lumbar spine surgery ! So I’m super sensitive and very aware of my bodies balance and how one thing can affect another ! So I was desperate to find a good hot weather , stable glide ,decent arch support with a wide toe and a sock liner that doesn't feel like I’m walking on cement , shoe ! And a shoe that isn’t pulling my heel down ( which after back surgery is not even imaginable) unless you want to end up in the ER! And as a bonus doesn't look like look like you on walking on a Unicorn marshmallow cloud or your GrandMoms bunion boot ! Keen retro style sneakers to the rescue ! Attractive yes , but it the fit that is the key ! A higher heel drop then most sneakers , a hiking or walking shoe tread , a slightly softer sock liner but a good solid foot feel ( no cute tricks to try and make your foot or body do something it doesn’t want to do ! ) Just a classy looking , well fitting well preforming shoe , just enough midsole flex to respond to what you want to do but you won’t slide in these if it’s wet ! Good old fashion ties , none of that slip in nonsense ! And the most surprising is that exchanged a pair of Keen ladies Tar ghee 4 that were suppose to be perfect for all my issues but had no arch at all and were not only heavy but pulled my heel down to where after a few miles I had to come in and remove them for exhaustion of my back pain ! These shoes ( my Keen sneakers ) at least for my summer into early fall have saved my season and my vaca ! Will be looking for hikers for fall but these are going to be my go to walking , everyday exercise walks and my Carolina exploring shoes ! In fact I’m trying to get my size in every color ! Thank you Keen for these ! And for anyone out here that’s interested these sneakers also have a comfortable but secure heel ! I usually wear a women’s 10 wide ( D) but in most Keens all I need is a regular 10 ! Don’t hesitate to try these if you are in search of a great sports / walking / athletic shoe that doesn't look or feel trendy !"

Astonishingly comfortable. I have bunions

"Astonishingly comfortable. I have bunions but my feet are slim/normal in other respects and these trainers are not like boats. I’ve deducted a star because the white fabric is a bit stiff and unattractive."

Judy B. (4/5)

The Shoe I’ve been looking for!

"This shoe is so cute in white and tan. A great neutral color with style. It’s stylish AND, it is a well-crafted, super comfortable athletic walking shoe. I’ve been looking for months, and this is THE SHOE."

Q&A

How do you clean the cream suede accents on these shoes?
To clean suede, you can start by brushing off any dirt using a soft brush. Then use a suede cleaner bar (we’ve found an eraser also works) to draw the stain out from the shoe. If stain persists, wet a damp cloth and rub out the staining. Allow suede to dry and use the brush to restore the suede’s nap. Use a suede brush (or any soft bristled brush) to restore the soft velvety texture by following the grain and applying soft pressure. You can also lightly mist footwear with a suede-specific waterproofing spray in a sweeping motion. This will provide a shield against dirt and moisture while maintaining texture and breathability.
Would this shoe be appropriate for jogging?
This is not a jogging sneaker.
Is this shoe waterproof?
No, this style does not have our KEEN.DRY waterproof lining.
What is the heel to toe drop of these shoes? I wish KEEN would post that info for every shoe.
