4.3 out of 5 stars.
Keen shoes have been helping feet find adventure since 2003, and it all began with the signature KEEN.PROTECT toe bumper. It might seem strange to build a footwear company around a feature, but that iconic toe bumper is more than just a style add-on. It’s what allows Keen sandals to hit the trails and provide the best toe protection possible. In fact, Keen was one of the first footwear companies to make closed-toed hiking sandals. Over the years, the product selection has continued to grow and now includes Keen hiking boots, trail shoes, cycling shoes, socks, clothing and bags. The brand is also actively involved in land and water conservation projects in the US, Canada, Europe and Japan.

4.0 out of 5 stars. SmallReviewed by John S from WA state on Tuesday, August 4, 2026The sizing is really inconsistent. My L foot is bigger but I bought this style in 1 colors and the R shoe was too tight in both colors. I felt I was getting a size 10.5 on the L and size 10 on the R.

3.0 out of 5 stars. Sized for all gender but Sierra is listing the correct women’s sizeReviewed by Jen S from NJ on Sunday, August 2, 2026Listened to the reviews and ordered as the all gender sizing chart advised however, the size that actually came corresponded to the actual women’s size not the all gendered size. The quality seems ok but the fit was too snug although, more generous than the typical women’s size would be. Will have to return and order my true ladies size and hope it works out.

3.0 out of 5 stars. 3.5 stars; Maybe Keen is not for meReviewed by Native210 from Los Angeles on Sunday, August 2, 2026My first Keens; I thought these were supposed to be awesome. The boots themselves are okay. They run large, and I added a half size as one does for hiking boots, but now I’m flopping around in them lkke they are a size too big, which is mind-boggling. Mostly, I abhor the Keens laces, which are basically stretchy sneaker laces, so while it’s easy to get a tight fit on the boot, the laces feel insubstantial and a foot too long once you tie them. I have to triple or quad knot them just to use up length to avoid a tripping hazard. I must replace them with round boot laces. Altogether not too impressed.

1.0 out of 5 stars. Beware the “waterproof” Bellows Flex tech!Reviewed by Disappointed in Keen from New York on Sunday, August 2, 2026I thought the Bellows Flex tech was a great idea. Unfortunately after wearing these for only a few months, the bellows ripped away from the shoe, destroying its waterproofing. Do not buy! Waste of money on a gimmick that doesn’t last.

3.0 out of 5 stars. Alot of workReviewed by SandyB from Washington on Friday, July 24, 2026I ordered these shoes because they looked super comfy. They are almost impossible to get on. They are soft across the top fo the shoe and at the heels, so its really difficult to get your foot into them. I usually wear a 9.5 but on these Keens my toes touch the front of the shoe- should have ordered a 1/2 of size up. Good support but I wish Keen would stay true to size on every shoe they make so you dont have to even think about the size you need. I wouldnt bu these again.

4.0 out of 5 stars. Great shoes at firstReviewed by Janno from Colorado on Wednesday, July 1, 2026I've had these shoes for a couple of months now. The fit was wonderful at first and they really are waterproof. They are perfect for working in the garden and yard and going on low key hikes. The laces have a unique rough texture that keeps them tied. However, the shoes have started to slip around on my feet this past week. By the end of the day my feet actually hurt from wearing these. I'm going to try thicker socks, but it's summer time so my feet are going to get really hot.

4.0 out of 5 stars. All Gender SizingReviewed by Hhaak from Arizona on Monday, June 29, 2026Leaving to comment to counteract the other one. These shoes are all gender sizing. Look at the Keen website for sizing. Technically goes by mens sizes.

5.0 out of 5 stars. Really comfy butReviewed by Bobby from NY on Friday, June 26, 2026I really like these shoes, but I was surprised by the furry upper. I want to wear them in the summer, but I'm afraid I might be locked up by the fashionistas. ;-)
So I'll call them "3-season" shoes and wear them a LOT. Well made and super comfortable. -
5.0 out of 5 stars. Great sandalsReviewed by Ms Info from Ohio on Wednesday, June 24, 2026I’ve had these a couple weeks and am very happy with them. Extremely comfortable, great fit. I have a small foot, slightly narrow and have had no trouble adjusting the straps or getting the shoe on.
Love the color too!
