Immediate favorite! I bought these boots just before a 3 week trip to Europe. Only had a chance to wear them around the house one night before I left. I wore them every day on my trip and walked for hours. No pain, no sore feet, no blisters. Immediate favorite. Love the easy on/off of the low shaft with one snap. I could get them on and off without no hands and often wore them unsnapped. Go best with jeans and cords. They are a casual boot. Heel was perfect, comfortable footbed, room in the toe box, enough arch support...hit all the criteria.

I generally love Keens as they fit my wide forefoot, and I currently own a pair of Keen hiking shoes, hiking boots, Mary Janes and sandals. I was looking forward to adding these casual boots to my collection, but alas, they do not fit at all like my other Keens. I ordered them in a size 7, just like all the other Keens that I wear, and they did not even come close to fitting. I could barely get my feet in them. And unfortunately, I do not think that going up a size would help much with the narrow cut of these boots. I am sending them back.

I love Keens and was very excited about this boot, but so disappointed because one fit a lot looser than the other. I love the look, the feel, the quality. By the way, my feet are the same size, I don't usually have this problem. The right boot was not larger but looser, a fact I couldn't ignore. So, although I hate to do it, I must send them back.

I love these boots! Super casual with a little height, and they look great with skinny jeans and skirts, too. After reading the reviews, I almost ordered a size larger, but I stayed with my usual 8, which is a good thing. They are roomy enough to wear with thick socks. There's a snap on the side, making them easy to put on. I wonder if previous reviewers didn't realize there was a snap? Great, comfy boots for every day. I'm so happy!

Keen nailed it. I have been searching for years for a fashionable shoe/boot by Keen I can wear with jeans or to work. Love this one. I have the worst feet in the world (bony and narrow with very high arches) and for some reason Keen shoes are very comfortable for me, so I almost exclusively wear them. These simply work. My foot can actually slip in and out of almost all Keen shoes (including these), but they do not move enough when walking to bother me at all. The foot is pretty snug once inside, so for most it may be a little narrow. For wider ankles I can see it being tricky to get on/off, again, no issues for me. Very comfortable to walk or stand in. I will probably get the High boot as well!
