Customer Reviews KEEN Providence

Awesome shoe - Great fit, look and overall comfort. I wear them as often as possible! Keen rocks and so does Zappos!

Excellent shoes for anyone - These are the most magnificent shoes I have ever bought. I live in the north east and it's cold and extremely snowy and these shoes are perfect. They keep you warm and dry.

Great for work and play - Very comfy and roomy. I have a problem with the arch in my right foot, and this shoe gives me the arch support and heel cushioning I need while still looking cool. Good shoes for standing around in a bar, walking around the city, or working on your feet. Goes great with jeans or pants. A little rugged but stylish. Easy to clean. I wear them to work a lot (in a biz-casual atmosphere). I am normally a size 10, and I ordered the 10 but it was too small. Since these shoes don't come in 10 1/2, I had to exchange for an 11. To my surprise, the 11 fits just fine. I wear these about 5 days a week and they're great!

Wonderful shoe! shoe runs very small. Ended up ordering one full size larger than I usually wear.

Can't resist wearing these shoes every day . . . Awesomely comfortable shoe, especially in the wet, slushy winter. Glad I followed others' advice about ordering the Providence one-half size bigger.

Love the Keens! The Keen Providence is now my favorite shoe. The fit is great. Lots of room up front, with no rubbing or pinching. Yet somehow them manage to hold the foot--no slipping in the rear. I have high arches and a wide forefoot. My wife's foot is flatter and narrower. We both love 'em! We're looking forward to trying other Keen Styles. Note that they do seem to run somewhere between a half size and full size small. Definitely order up a half or full size (depending on the type of sock you're likely to wear).

Awesome shoe! These Keens ROCK! They were my first pair and I LOVE them. They are comfortable and so stylish. I get comments on them all of the time. Zappos is the best shoe store hands down. I get my shipments early, prices are very good and I love the free return shipping option. Keep it up!

Happy Feet - My feet are so happy since I got my Keen Providences. I did find that a whole size up was the best for these while in the Seattles I only needed a half size up.

Greatest shoes - Very comfortable and keep your feet very dry. I would buy every color if they weren't so expensive. I received them in 1 day. Excellent service from Zappos!

I love my Keens - I have 3 pair of Keens and I love every one of them. They are comfortable, light weight and there is no "break in" period which I do have with other shoes I buy.

Great shoe, but runs small - I am loving these shoes now that I've got them broken in. The first day they cut into my ankle, but I've got flat feet, so maybe that's why? I also bought the "Seattle" (the mary jane's) and they fit great from the start. They do run a half size small, so I ordered a 7 vs. my usual 6.5.

Fantastic Shoes!!! I have some foot issues and a friend told me about these shoes from Zappos and although they look a little strange, they are the only shoe I will ever buy in the future. Major comfort and durability... I love the look with pants and living in Arizona and our desert they are perfect for my active lifestyle. I bought a pair for my 75 year old Mom and two pairs for my good friends. I am trying to convince my kids that they are not old people shoes.... *****Beware though, always buy a whole shoe size larger than what you normally wear.***** I was happy to know that from the beginning. And PLEASE Keen make this shoe in purple and you will sell many more pairs...

Love 'em - This is the first truly comfortable "shoe" I have EVER worn. I wear birks and dansko clogs, and hiking boots for the mountains. They are wide so your toes are NOT crammed into a pointy toe. A bit short in the length, but no worry with Zapppos, you can get the right size - no hassle. Wonderful groovy looking shoe. Halleulah, a shoe you can actually walk in, better feel than most of the "hiking" shoes that are put togther with lots of little pieces of leather and plastic.

Love the Keen Providence - I gave this shoe to my aunt for Christmas and she loves it! She can never find shoes wide enough and said that this shoe fit her to a tee. So great for all of her dog walks!

Fun, sturdy slip-on - Once I got the right size (one-half size larger than normal), I was delighted with these shoes. They are extremely comfortable, and the "bumper" nicely protects your toes and absorbs scuffs. The color (Bison) is light-to-medium brown that works with almost any casual slacks.

Where has Keens been all my life? Since my Keen Providences came to the door, I haven't worn any other shoe. Other reviewers were correct--order a half size up. I chose Bison, which is a nice, super practical brown color. My only regret is that I didn't go a little funkier. The Moss is beautiful in person. These shoes are going to be fantastic during ski season.

Keen review - From the day my boots arrived, they fit perfectly. I did order up a half size and I am glad I did, they fit great with a thick sock, which you need in ME in the winter. They are so comfortable!

Feel like slippers - It was very helpful to read the other reviews. I usually wear a 9 1/2 and I ordered a 10. They fit perfect. I am thinking of ordering other colors. I just can't decide what color to choose.

Keen's are great! For this type of Keens I did follow reviewer's advice, and bought 1 1/2 size larger, and it was perfect! Unlike the Providence boot's top part which chafed, this one didn't need breaking in, it was just perfect. Keen's have beaten Earth as my new "comfort" shoe...it's very lightweight, funky enough to wear with a lot of clothes. I have a Keen for every season! Thanks, Zappos!

These shoes looks great, are easy to slip in and out of, and despite the cold temperatures this winter, my feet have not felt cold on 25 minute walks. These shoes are very comfotable now, however the first couple of days of wear gave me blisters below my ankle bones! Not used to having shoes hit at that spot.

Keen! my favorite shoe - Great shoe. I bought a pair for my self and loved them so I bought a pair for my grandson and both daughters. It is their favorite shoe too. I am sure because they have them on everytime I see them. Need I say more?

Keen Providence - I love all of Keens products. This shoe is so comfortable and I wear it a lot. Fit is great and easy to slip into after a short break in period. Since wearing the keen shoes my back and calves are less sore. Order 1/2 size up.

Keen shoes. The footbed of this shoe rocks. I had some rubbing on one of my ankles, but so comfy. In a weird way, they are ugly enough to make them cute. I couldn't stop looking at them the first time I wore them. My friend thought they were so-so until she tried them on. Now she's getting a pair. The ventalation is not great & my feet got sweaty. But hey, I bought them for the winter - so I don't mind.

The best - Thanks so much. You are the best shoe store. The Keens are great!
