I bought these to hike through the Adirondacks and at one point my whole foot slipped into a river -- completely dry! I wore them all weekend; they're comfortable even with two pairs of socks, and warm. The only issue I have is they squish my second toe, but once I broke them in, it was fine. I am so glad I bought these; they'll last forever and are worth the money!

Great pair of boots! They fit me perfectly because of the wider toe box in Keen shoes. I purchased a pair of hiking boots a couple of years ago from Eddie Bauer that I was never able to really wear because they didn't give my toes enough room. These not only fit, they are light, yet seem very sturdy. Metal eyelets. Tough laces. I have worn on several hikes and am totally happy with them. In fact, I like to wear them around the house. Usually I wear 9.5 but had to get size 10, so it seems they run about a half size small.

I tried this boot in my usual size, but very short. Even a 1/2 size up my big toe hits the front of the toe box. Plenty of toe room across, so I tried the Keen Oregon PCT in 1/2 size bigger than my usual size and they fit great. Both boots have great arch support. I tried on many hiking boots and Keens were the only ones that had good toe room across. I do not have a wide foot, so I'm glad I tried Keen.

This is the first pair of hiking boots I have ever tried on, so I did not know what to expect. I ordered a half size up from what I normally wear in athletic shoes. The bigger size fit perfectly, but when I walked around, the shaft rubbed above my ankle funny. After trying on Keen Targhee II Mids, I have decided to return the Gypsums. The Targhees are much cushier, offer more arch support, and are slightly lower cut, so they do not rub above the ankle.
I'd also recommend: Keen Targhee II Mid

So far, so good with these boots. Haven't been on any long hikes yet, but have been comfortable on short walks. Can't beat Keen for a roomy toe-box. Look forward to taking them to Canada this summer. I needed to go up a half size, as Keens tend to run small.
