Start with the good stuff: this is an exceptionally handsome shoe, with the sleek, simple lines of an everyday casual rather than the goofy "design features" that deface most sneakers. The olive color is a great neutral, and the subtle orange stitching is a nice autumn touch (though it's going to be impossible to replace the olive/orange shoelaces). It's not a full fledged walking sneaker by any means. There’s not enough support or cushioning, at least not for me, but I find it comfortable for walks of a mile or so. Beyond that, I need soft arch supports and a heel cup to soften the heel strike. The strange thing is the sizing, which will not come as a surprise to anyone who has ever worn Keen shoes before. I wear a 10.5AA and have pancake-flat feet. I purchased an 11B, which was as close as Zappos had. This shoe feels like a 10 narrow. Really narrow A mystery, since the other Keens I own need padding and tight lacing to stay on my feet. I feel that I lucked out with these, but anybody who wears a true medium width is going to be unhappy unless they size up. I wish Keen would get their sizing on a consistent track so their shoes could be ordered with more confidence.

Okay - not as good as my other Keens! These shoes were just okay. I thought they had very little padding between my foot and ground, though, especially when I removed the footbed and wore them with my orthotics. They looked okay, but I was worried about the suede part getting messed up - even right out of the box it was already showing wear.

Awesome shoe!! I have so many foot problems and I have tried so many different types of shoes to provide me the most comfort and support. I was looking for a casual shoe and was thrilled that these came in my size 12 foot! Now these are the only shoes I wear most of the time. Some days I may start out wearing a different pair but end up putting these on for comfort and support. I will look for Keen shoes in the future as they are great. Thank you!

Good alternative for narrow feet! I love Keen shoes but a lot of them are too wide for my narrow feet, so I got this lace-up style and they were a great choice! I love them! They felt comfy right out of the box - no breaking in time. This is the kind of shoe you end up wearing all the time!

Nice! These are a little narrower, and more stream-lined than the usual Keen shoe. They do not offer as much support, but are still way more comfortable than any shoe I have that is not named Keen. My usual size is 8.5, but as with many Keen shoes, I ordered a 9 and that was the correct size. I am not able to put my orthotics in these as they are a little too narrow for them.

My second pair! I have enjoyed my first pair of Bostonian Flex. I am going to start my second pair! It's a great shoe.

Great shoe. This will be my 3rd pair. Great looking shoe, shines good, light, flexible, very comfortable for walking long distances in airports.

Look good - too long for break-in. I'm pleased with the look - they shine well, and I've received compliments. Unfortunately, I thought they would be like other Bostonians I've purchased and break in quickly. I made the mistake of wearing them on a trip and raised blisters on my heels. Now that I've worn them consistently for six weeks, they are broken in and comfortable.

Once again. I seem to hard on the leather sole but the shoe hold up fine. Time for my third pair.

These shoes look great! However, after wearing them to work for several days my feet are killing me. 'Can't wait to get them off! They're not for anyone who has to be on their feet all day. Maybe for meetings or church.
