I myself have owned a number of Keen shoes over the years and I possess a woman's version of this shoe and love it. Thus, I purchased this shoe for my husband prior to leaving on a trip to San Francisco. We took it out of the box and he wore them for 6 days straight walking and biking about 10+ miles a day. Not many shoes can do that without breaking them in! Don't wait, buy them now!

I work at a restaurant about 55 hours a week and got these shoes about a month ago and I have to say that these are the best shoes that I have ever bought! Very comfortable and non slip - a great shoe. Would recommend highly.

If you're on your feet all day long on hard surfaces these shoes are great. They support your feet well, fit a wide foot well and do not slip on wet floors. Plus, they do have a very clean, almost dress look to them and will pass with work styled clothing. And there's Zappos: they are the best every time, right on time with their service!

I bought these about a month ago, I work in a restaurant where the floors are always wet and slippery. I had purchased in the past the cheap shoes for crews they work however they are not comfortable for more than 3 weeks then they just start to fall apart at the stiching, the toe tends to get blowouts and the bottoms wear out very quick. But with these keens they are very comfy and are built very strong and the best kitchen shoe I have had. They do run a bit small so order a size bigger.

Worst work shoes ever. Period. I've spent more than 10 years working as a waiter. Working two jobs for most of that time. So I've gone through a lot of shoes. These things beat the hell out of my feet. They hurt in places I've never had my feet hurt before. In the store they felt great, a little snug here and there but nothing unusual. They just needed breaking in. Well fast forward a few weeks and those snug spots were gone but a whole host of problems emerged. First there are these two dime sized spots right where the ball of my foot starts to slope into my arch, just putting on these shoes triggers pain. The bones on the outside of my feet hurt. I have to keep these laced so loosely that the laces are barely keeping the shoes on my feet. If I tie these shoes even a tiny bit too tight, various parts of my feet will go numb from blood restriction. I've tried several different insoles and they all relive one spot of pain but trigger another. So I'm down to swapping out insoles every day just to even out the pain. When I work long or double shifts I'm limping by the end of my day. I can't express my disappointment in these shoes enough. I love Keens hiking boots. So I was stoked when I saw they made a non slip work shoe. I thought, Yes! My prayers have been answered. A shoe that's not going to break down and fall apart in 3 months. Just like every Payless/Walmart/Shoes for Crews shoe I've ever bought.

The dye from the inside of the shoes came off all over the bottoms of my socks. I tried wearing them again, but the same thing happened. Unacceptable.

These are well built and very comfortable work shoes. Do not be fooled by the Dress Oxford label, unless you routinely wear shoes shaped like a potato to weddings.

Very comfortable. I like the snug fit and durable toe. These shoes are truly non-slip. Do yourself a favor and pay for quality, your feet will thank you.

I've worn the Keen Utility PTC Oxford a few times now for work, and it's a great piece of footwear. I teach at a university, I bicycle to/from work each day, and the Keen Utility is light enough and rugged enough to take all kinds of conditions, hot, cold, or wet. The leather upper was softer and more supple than I'd imagined it would be from the Zappos images. It's bendy yet tough. This shoe is taller than it looks in the photos, but not uncomfortably so. (The heel's thicker than it looks.) I'm confident that I'll get at least a year or more out of this shoe.

I sell Subaru's and spend about 60% of my day on my feet. I have had many injuries to the bones,ligaments and tendons in both of my feet. I also have flat feet like a duck. This is the first shoe I have owned that I don't want to take off when I get home after a 10 or 12 hour day. They're soft,they bend, you can walk or run and they feel the same, great! Buy these shoes and you will want to spend your whole day walking not sitting.

Excellent shoes. They were comfortable from the moment I put them on. I love Keen shoes and I am totally pleased with these. I just hope Keen will keep making them for many years to come!

I bought these a few weeks ago after having had a pair of Keen. I really liked the wide toe box that fits my wide foot much more naturally than other shoes. I manage a restaurant and am on my feet for hours at a time. These shoes fit great, are extremely comfortable and so far are holding up well. The non-slip sole is adequate, but not nearly slip-resistant as Shoes for Crews. The big test for me, will be long-term comfort and durability. My Shoes for Crews would blow out in 6 to 9 months, so if these can last even 9 months to a year, they would be worth the additional price.

Great comfortable shoes, however, the glue that holds them together came apart within 60 days.

I work two jobs full time so I am on my feet for 14 hours daily on the average. This is my third pair of Keen Shoes in the last two years and they are super comfortable and last close to a year. I am very pleased and they help keep a great posture as well. Thanks very much!

The shoes are great, very, very comfortable. They are constructed like lightweight low-cut hiking boots but for me, as a teacher, nice enough to wear everyday to work. I hate to take them off.

These are work shoes so I wasn't looking so much for style. I was looking for a comfortable, supportive and non-slip shoe, which is what I found in the Keen Utility PTC Oxford. I am on my feet 6 to 14 hours per day, working on mostly hard uneven surfaces, and these shoes have made a positive difference in the way my feet and ankles feel at the end of the work day.

I'm a nurse. On my feet all day. These shoes work well. They are decent looking and reasonably comfortable. Keen can call them dress shoes all they want, and they are a step up from athletic shoes, but don't be fooled... you won't wear these with a dress suit or a nice shirt and tie. Overall, I'm pleased with them and very happy with the Zappos shipping and shopping experience.
