Customer Reviews KEEN Presidio

My daughter is a server & on her feet all day, she started having severe leg & foot pain. Dr. Mom knows how important good footwear is. Bought these & all is well! Pain is gone! She liked the look too.

Great shoe - Got this style after Briggs, Voyageur, Newport and Newport H2, all great shoes too. This one is even a bit more "dressy", looks less like you are about to go on an outdoor adventure. I work 12 hour shifts and the Briggs and this shoe are great for those long days. No break-in required. Also have plantar fasciitis and Morton's neuromas and this shoe does not make anything worse, which is a great deal, if you have foot pain already. I ordered 1/2 size over my standard size, which has worked for most Keens (but not all). I will be ordering a back-up pair for when my current pair wears out; don't want to be caught in "discontinued" land.

Great shoe - I'm still not sure how some people feel that this is true to size while others note differently, but I can tell you that all the other shoes I own (including a pair of the Keen Newport H2s) are 5.5. I had to send the 5.5 in this style for a 6 which fits perfectly.

I adore Keens and love how they feel on my feet. Out of the box, these felt a tad stiff but being all leather, I'm prepared to be a bit forgiving. I bought these shoes for work and so style is not so important for me there, but I'll admit these look a bit utilitarian. I have another pair of utilitarian shoes from Keen, however, and still got mistaken for a "lady of the night" one time while wearing them, so I guess... some people find them REALLY attractive? Anyway, always the right size and good shoes for the buck. Love you, Keen.

This is my third pair of these Presido style shoe. This latest shoe is still good but is noticeably stiffer out of the box that the previous pair. The arch is not as supportive and the insole is not cushiony at all.

Definitely not the same shoe I wore (out) and loved for years. I used to say that Keens were made for me but no longer. The Presidio toe box is narrower and the whole shoe is less generously accommodating for my foot-- size 5.5 and slightly wide. The lining is slippery so the shoes don't feel as supportive as the old ones. I miss the old ones!

I was looking for a great walking shoe and wanted this to work--I wear Keen hiking boots all the time. Presidio has a wonderful sole and good support, fits well in every way unless you have narrow heels. My foot slipped with each step and they had to go back. I bought Hush Knit CNX instead (the sole is less substantial but I'm hoping to fix that with some kind of insole--and it's also much better looking).

I am a person with very fussy feet, bunions, etc. Keens have been my favorite shoe for years and I've owned several pair--all Presidios. My favorite light green Presidios are beginning to show wear after 4 years so I ordered two more pair, one in my regular size 10-1/2 and one in an 11. First of all, it seems Keen is no longer making many Presidios. Their new version is not the same. These two pair both are too tight compared to the ones I bought 4 years ago that were so comfortable right out of the box. I tried the bigger size and it slipped off my heel. I am so disappointed not only in the construction of this batch of Presidios but in the lack of interesting colors. The Tanditori Spice was the color I wanted but it was only available in a larger size than I usually wear. I need a wide toe box to keep my feet able to walk and stand for hours, these new Keens just don't fit anymore.

Why am I returning these shoes that fit absolutely perfectly? Because the tongue is so much longer than any shoe I've ever had and it digs into my ankles. I am so unsure that this will alleviate itself over time that I don't feel I can keep them, particularly since they cost $100+. I really like Keens and am so bummed about these. I loved the look of them, loved the color, loved the fit. But that darn tongue spoiled it all. Bummer.

The shoe runs a littler larger than most. I wear a 12 in most ladies shoes and I feel like the 12 is a little large. However, I do plan to keep them since I've already worn them out the house. I just predict they might relax even more with them being leather. I've worn them all day and haven't worried about my feet hurting. They are a little stiff. I am hoping that just means they will last me a long time. All they had left in my size were the dark brown. My son said they looked like daddy's shoes and I will agree that the brown do look more manly than womanly. However, I wore them in dewy grass this morning and didn't feel a bit of moisture. That's an achievement and the whole purpose of me buying them. My feet feel nice and protected.

Keens are keen - The Presidio shoe is really nice. Well made. Great style. The Fern is a cool color. The only downer is the sizing. These shoes run small; more like short in the toe area. I usually wear a size 5.5 but ended up with a 6.5! I've never owned a pair of 6.5s in my life. The 6 was OK but my toes bumped the front interior of the shoe. The 6.5s look a little big but they are comfortable. Thank goodness for Zappos great service, which allowed me to switch through the sizes.

I'm bummed that this new version of the Presidio no longer fits my feet. Was hoping to replace my wonderful old ones which I loved. This latest version sadly doesn't work for me so I had to return them.

I was really disappointed in this pair of shoes. I own an almost identical pair that is about 10 years old. I LOVE them and was trying to replace them. These new shoes were exceptionally stiff and uncomfortable; the materials feel really cheap. Even wearing them around the house for a couple hours did not improve their comfort. The original shoes were comfortable and wearable out of the box.

I am disappointed as the style and fit has changed greatly...I will wear my 8 year old Presidios that have served me very well until shredded?

Loved the style and the color...but to my sorrow, the toe box just isn't deep enough for my crossover toes. Sending them back...

I was so disappointed in these shoes. I had bought the same shoes a few years ago and was trying to replace them, but they are not the same fit.

They’ve changed construction. Toe box much narrower. Materials feel man made for interior lining of shoe. Not nearly as comfortable as they have been before. This is my fourth pair of these. I wear them exclusively for work as I stand on concrete floors all day. Will keep these and give them a try - but I am very disappointed in the direction Keen is going. They had previously been recommended to me by my podiatrist. Hope they don’t jeopardize their market share by cutting production costs.
