Customer Reviews KEEN Targhee II Mid

My normal 7.5 size fit me perfectly. COMFY shoes! I have no idea why so many people are saying they had to get bigger sizes, but my normal 7.5's in these shoes fit me like a GLOVE! I wear normal every day sports socks *shrugs*. These shoes were comfortable right out of the box. The low version of this shoe (not the mids) pinched me on the left side by the outside ankle, but that's probably just that pair. Regardless, these shoes will be great for the rain, ha, ha, ha, not that we've SEEN any rain here in Southern CA, but we can always prepare and hope. ;) As a side note, I had to return the Keen Portola because the 7.5 were huge on my feet. The 7.5 Keen Zoe I just got the other day fit me like a glove and I kept those.

Total satisfaction - I only knew to order a size larger than my Keen sandals because of an REI salesperson that knew what he was talking about and would have bought them there except they were out of stock and didn't know when they'd be in. So be sure of your size before you order. Love the toe room, can actually move my toes around without the shoe feeling loose. As with my Keen sandals, I forget I have shoes on! Very comfortable.

Hiking Comfort - I hike every weekend and was in desperate need of a comfortable, functional hiking shoe. Being a Keen summer Newport fan, I tried the Keen Targhee. My husband also bought a pair and we took a 10 mile hike right after we received them. They were very comfortable and performed well against different terrain. We both purchased one full size larger as they run small.

Shudda ordered 1/2 size larger. I ordered these in my usual size and was disappointed that they felt a little short. I didn't want to return them since I was going camping and didn't have time to wait. I'm glad I kept them. They are perfect with thinner socks and my feet were never cold. Great grip and ankle support. Lots of reflective stuff to get you noticed at night. Comfy.

Great, but not your average Keen - These boots are great, no break in time. But my feet (which don't typically sweat) sweat a lot in these. Don't know if it's the lining or what. But then my toes get really cold. Aside from that (perhaps I'll get some wicking socks), they're very very comfy. I actually climbed a mountain wearing these suckers and they did beautifully.

Patagonia hikers - I bought these boots prior to a 2-week hiking trip in Patagonia. I don't think I could have been happier with their performance. The break-in period was quick & easy, the comfort level was high, and I had no problems at all during the long days of hiking in the mountains. Actually, in our group of 13, there were 3 of us with these boots. Thanks again, Keen!

Go anywhere boot - The comfort and support of a running shoe, with all the features of a full out winter boot. These are great they are really cushioned in the heel and forefoot, with just enough support for the ankle without feeling like your feet are locked up in prison. These are my pick for snow and slush.

Finally, a hiking boot that fits! First off: DO order 1/2 size larger. I usually take a 6 or 6 1/2, and take a 7 (with a thicker sock) in these. Love having comfortable, dry feet! As a bonus, these required no breaking in. Highly recommend.

Great Walking Shoe - These shoes are so comfortable. They hug my feet and give them the best support ever. I have wide feet and they give me plenty of room. I usually wear a 6 1/2 and had to go up to a seven. The lacing system keeps the shoes fitting properly the entire time I am wearing them and the light weight yet solid feel of the boot keeps me walking as long as I wish with no discomfort. I find myself slipping these shoes on when I am not hiking and I normally would wear lower sneakers simply because they feel so good and give such great arch and ankle support. Guess I'll have to buy a low pair also. Zappos.com has become my only shoe store. It is wonderful to know that the service will be quick and efficient. You sure know how to treat a customer!

Keen Targhee Mid - Love this shoe/boot. Bought three different boots and this was the one! Good looking, and I didn't have to break it in. I had to order a half size up. The fit was good even with thick hiking socks. Comfortable toe box, shoe strings are a little short, but I have wide feet. I can't wait to use them this winter. I would definitely recommend them and I would buy Keen again.

AWESOME BOOTS! I got these just before going on a week-long trip to do some pretty intense hiking through woods, fields, shoulder high weeds, etc. They held up awesome and my feet never hurt or got wet! I didn't have time to try to break them in and they still did great.

Size matters - I like the look of the shoe and its color, however, those are not the most important reasons people look to buy boots. They obviously have to fit and the size of this shoe is way off base being a full size to a full size and half too small and a little narrower than specified. I read the reviews and even ordered a bigger size (I wear 51/2 shoes and ordered size 61/2 boots and they are still too small.) I really like the arch support and will be returning this boot for a better fitting Keen Targhee Mid II.

Best hiking boots ever - These boots fit great - lots of room for my wide foot - and the lacing system is extremely functional. They also have reflective tape sewn on so are safe at night (I like to walk at night too, in the rural area where I live). I'd say they are worth every dollar, and I will never wear any of my other hiking boots again.

These are the best! I am an avid Internet shopper, but I have never written a review for anything before. I had to comment on these boots. They are fantastic. Right out of the box, I wore them on a hike that was mostly over rock. They clung like glue. They were comfortable---no irritations on my feet. I like the fact that they are light weight. I did have to size up 1/2 size larger than I would ordinarily wear. If you're looking for a comfortable, light weight boot that can take you over most surfaces---these are for you!

Love my Keen's - Finally got a chance to really try out my new Keen's and love them! Went to Yosemite and had them on the entire day and my feet felt great. Good traction on rocks and great support (saved my ankles a few times). Definitely order a half size larger.

Love these! I have been searching for the perfect hiker and these are it! These are light weight and comfortable--I usually wear a 9 and ordered a 1/2 size smaller after reading the reviews and they were correct--the 9 1/2 fit better and I had the perfect amount of toe room for the downhill potions of the hike! I would even wear these backpacking considering I like a lighter weight boot for that!

Couldn't go wrong with this one!! I got this shoe based on the positive reviews that I had read on Zappos and it was no mistake. This boot is ready to go straight out of the box! I went for a 2-hour hike without breaking them in and was not disappointed. Truly a great fit, lots of comfort and attractive. Regarding size: I typically order an 8 1/2 or 9 in footwear; I went with a 9 in this boot to accommodate for a thicker hiking sock.

Love these - I love these hiking boots. They are very comfortable and light weight, not too bulky. They also have a very cool look to them. I do wear a size 8 1/2 and needed a 9 in these.

Great boot. No break in needed and total comfort during 3 day hiking trip. I have wide feet so Keen's fit me well. I agree with other reviewers that Keen's generally requires sizing up a half size.

Love the shoes - They are great! I suffer with plantar fasciitis and these shoes have been the best yet. Keen does a great job and I am glad my sister told me about them.

Great Day Hikers - These are great day hikers in rugged terrain. I even went on a weekend backpack and they protected my feet well with good support and the shoe held its own. The insole is comfortable. Zappos continues to be a reliable e-commerce store with amazing customer service.

I have been buying this particular boot and shoe for years. No break in period and the arch support is great. I hope they continue to offer the Targhee, I always know what I am getting. I can get usually 2 years out of a pair, they don't last forever but are worth it.

The boots were so light. Didn't feel like you had a ton of weights on your feet. The traction was so good that when I walked through a mall with them on (thinking we would go hiking after) they stuck on the marble smooth flooring and down I went! I purchased them for a cruise to South America and by mistake left them on the ship which is now floating the ocean blue.. They are in lost and found and once the ship comes back to our area I will be thrilled to get them back! Until then I will dream of those great boots!

I bought these boots to hike to the Kjeragboltn in Norway and they survived. The hike was not an easy one (going up granite faces, through snow and mud, climbing on rocks) and these were exactly what I needed. I felt they might have been a little too big, but I didn't have enough time to send them back for a smaller size. I came off the hike without any blisters or rubbed spots, which has not been the norm with my previous boots. Love them, and can't wait to get back on the trail!

I bought these for a hiking trip to the Grand Canyon. I normally wear an 8-8.5. First, I ordered the 8...too small. When I tried on the 8.5, they felt perfect. However, while hiking down into the canyon, the temperature rose quite a bit, and as a result my feet started to swell. I ended up with blisters and lost 4 toenails. If I had to do it over again, I would have purchased a 9. Rookie mistake, I know. Other than my own sizing issues, this shoe has solid construction and great support.
