Customer Reviews KEEN Targhee II Mid

Once again, Keen has made a crazy comfortable shoe. A toe box that your toes can relax and feel comfortable in, and yet your heel and ankle stay in place. The grip and traction will be great on hikes and I can't wait to get these on the mountain.

I wear a 9.5, and I bought a 9.5. I've hiked in about three pairs of boots and these are the most comfortable I've owned. I'm due for a seven mile hike in the North Georgia mountains in June, and I've been wearing them around when I get home from work with padded wool socks. 91 degrees today, but the comfort level is so amazing that I'm not worried. Three days of backcountry near shoals!

These are amazing!! I was hesitant to buy the mid height version but I'm really glad I did. My feet/ankles feel very secure in them. They were extremely comfortable out of the box and didn't require any breaking in. I usually wear a 7.5-8 and ordered both sizes and went with the 8.

When I woke up this morning and my feet didn't hurt after wearing the Targhee Mids all day yesterday, I knew I had to write a review. These fit unlike any other boots I own, in that they tighten in the center of the foot, and neither your toes nor your heel even touch the boot so there's no rubbing. I ordered a half size up as suggested and wear them with moisture-wicking socks as well. I have a high arch, and these boots supported me so well that I didn't feel any foot fatigue, and my back didn't hurt either (which is common after being on my feet all day). The large toe box gives my toes room to stretch out, and thus far I've avoided breaking the middle toenail on both feet as I have every other time I'm on my feet for long periods. Probably the best boot I've ever purchased, all thanks to the great reviews here.

very comfortable and fit perfectly.

These boots are such a great surprise! Buying any kind of shoes or boots has always been a nightmare due to a wide foot, narrow heel and bunions. When they arrived I put them on with the usual amount of skepticism, anticipating discomfort and wondering how much I could live with, my usual decision making process when it comes to my feet. These boots are truly comfortable! There is plenty of toe room, heel fits snug, they are very light, but very stable feeling and I have NO PAIN! Also, extra care has been taken to construct a smooth, comfortable interior, without seams and bumps that can rub those hard working feet. I love these boots!

These boots are amazing! I took them on a recent trip to Hawaii and used them on a number of hikes without breaking them in first... I was concerned I might end up with blisters but they fit like a glove from day one and have fantastic cushioning and support. The fact that they're waterproof too is an added bonus... new favorite hiking boots!

Thank heavens someone makes a boot for women with somewhat wide feet. In regular shoes I don't usually wear a wide, but it can be darn close at times. Many women boots I tried(Ahnu Sugarpine, Vasque) were a little too narrow for my feet. These give me some welcome wiggle room for toes sideways and up and down (toe box area). I've not had them out on the trail yet but am optimistic. I agree with the advice to size up a half size - in running shoes I am a 10.5 regular, but in these I liked an 11.

My husband and I were planning a trip to the Big Island of Hawaii and I needed a sturdy, yet comfortable pair of hiking boots as we were going to hike to the 61G lava flow at Volcanoes National Park. I came upon these on Zappos and I have to say that these boots were awesome!!! After 11 miles (and I didn't even break them in prior) they kept my feet comfortable (not one blister!) and provided great support. The lava field was especially challenging terrain as lava can be very sharp and uneven. Despite all this, these boots did exceptionally well. No damage at all, except lots of dust. I highly recommend this hiking boot.

These don't run big like the reviews say. I went up half a size and then had to exchange them for my normal size. Great boots. Keens are the best. You can stomp around in comfort for years in them.

I'm on my third pair of these boots. They are great for wider feet and provide solid sturdy support for long day hikes over rough terrain. Get at least a half size larger so you can wear medium to thick wool socks. For an even wider boot, I recommend the Keen Voyageur Mid (which alas are not waterproof).

Great shoe! I did have to go up a half size to fit comfortably. But super comfortable out of the box. I've been wearing them around to run errands and such and for walking to break them in and I've had no issues! Highly recommend them!

I purchased these boots in April 2016 and hiked in them all summer. I have a wide foot so the Keen is a perfect choice for me, even though they are sold as B width. I usually wear a 9.5W and had to go with a 10 in this boot. The toe box is roomy and the heel fits well. That said, I now wear a mid-weight wool sock instead of the lightweight (Smartwool) that I'd been wearing with my previous boots. Now that it is winter I have worn these boots hiking and snowshoeing and am just as happy with their performance as I was during the summer months. I am buying a second pair now because I am concerned that this model won't be available when it is necessary to replace them when they wear out!

I've had these boots for well over a year now. They required no breaking in and have been comfortable since my first hike. I've worn these boots while hiking through Colorado and Utah and have submerged them fully in water while hiking the Narrows. I was pleased because they seemed to dry out quickly thereafter. I haven't worn these in icy conditions so I'm not sure how they'd perform, but will update this review when I do. Can't go wrong with these boots!

Although the shoes run small, if you buy half a size larger they are perfect. I do a lot of walking and hiking and they are extremely comfortable. I have a wide foot, especially in the front and these fit very well. I'm on my fourth pair of Keens, having worn out the other three. They require zero breaking in and are extremely comfortable and durable. The only concern is that the soles do not grip well on wet rock so you have to be careful. I would not wear them for mountain climbing but they are great for day hikes.

Great shoe. Wore them in the Catskills right out of the box. I'm usually a small 10 and tried both there 10 and 10.5. I kept the 10.5, the 10 was too small. Order a half size up! It wasn't rainy but there were streams. Boots kept me warm and dry.

This is my second pair, so I think that says it all. I wore my other ones out, lots of miles on them. I wear 8.5 in most Keen shoes, but I size up to 9 for my boots, and that works. I hiked 6 miles third time out, no issues with fit. I do use my orthotics in them, which works well for me. I really like this color , Raven/ Bossa Nova.

These hiking boots are awesome! I've done 3 10+ mile hikes so far, in comfort and find great traction in loose rock/steepness. With ample toe room I can wear my medium weight hiking socks. Taking advice from other reviews, I ordered 1/2 larger. This is a very reasonable price for boots that will go many, many miles.

First of all, shipping took forever!! Guess Zappos has changed their policies since the days when I used to receive my order in 2 days. Now for free shipping it's about a week. That being said, I love these hiking boots. This order replaced my old pair. They fit your foot like you've been wearing them for months. We went on a hike right away! Very comfy.

Excellent fit. Trim is more green than blue. Ankle padding is more generous than any hiking boots I have previously tried. Sized up a half size just like running shoes to protect toes.

I've been seeking hiking boots for 5 years. My bunions have made buying shoes really difficult. I am so grateful for Zappos!. Keens have become my shoe of choice. I tried 3 styles of Keen hiking boots on and these were my favorites. I ended up keeping the pair that was a full size larger than my Keen water sandals. I wore them on a 6 mile hike in the Adirondacks right out of the box. Hallelujah! No blisters! Plenty of support! Love them!

I love the Keen brand and own many pairs. Reviews indicated to order a half size up - so I did. Unfortunately they were too big so I sent them back and got my regular size. Zappos service was as usual the best!

Already knew I loved the shoe! Great price and the best service out there. Yeah Zappos!

I looked at these boots and knew I liked them. The are a nice close fit which is what I like and very comfortable.

Wonderful! Second pair of Keen's that I've owned. I was told they run small so I ordered 1/2 size more and they were perfect!
