Customer Reviews KEEN Targhee II Waterproof

The laces must be moved into the top position in order to keep them from cutting off circulation, but once this is done, they fit like a dream. They're very solid and stable feel without extreme weight. I'm very happy with this purchase.

Mixed experience: I like the look and general feel, but there are two significant drawbacks: 1. They're really slippery when wet! I'd expect for a hiking boot they'd have good grip when wet, but they're dangerous on floors or smooth rock when wet. 2. Within about two months the seam on top started to come apart on both shoes. Again, really surprising as the look like high quality boots. As for fit - they're nice and wide, but actually run pretty short, so my toes are a bit pressed against the front even though I ordered a half size larger than I normally would.

Purchased these for my son who generally wears a 10.5. I ordered his usual size even though several people commented that they ran small. They arrived and were much too big. We exchanged them for a 9.5 which fit and still have plenty of room for super thick socks. The shoes look great - look very well constructed and hope to get lots of wear from them.

The Keen Targhee II shoes are great. I use them for hiking in wet and light snow conditions; they are definitely waterproof! I love the way Keen's fit; they are the most comfortable outdoor shoe I own, This style does run small, as the sizing shart advises. I purchased a half size larger that I normally wear and they fit great.

I just bought this shoe, and love it. I tried other similar Keens and this one had the best fit. The others had a slight heel that felt odd. I bought these to replace my Salomon hiking shoes. The last pair of Salomon hikers I bought never did fit right. The Keen Targhee II fit liked glove on the first try and I never looked back. Too bad as I have been loyal to Salomon since my skiing days going back over 40 years (boots and bindings)!

I bought these shoes for my husband for Christmas. He says these shoes have the best arch support as well as his dress shoes which are also Keens. He said it is like walking on a cloud. I think if he could have he would of slept in them. I am glad I got a 1/2 size larger as recommended by the company and other reviews. My husband has wide feet (usually wears a D in width) but he has had no problems with the width of these shoes. He is a physician is on his feet all day and is also diabetic. He has used shoes in the past with orthotic insets, but he says these shoes far outpast his other shoes. I too wear Keens and I will never wear another make of shoes ever in my life.

Get a half size bigger than your usual shoes, just like they recommend. I've always worn trail style shoes and these are some of the best I've ever worn. Have not tested how water proof they are yet, but am sure they will do fine. The colors are way more generic than the pics show, good for me, maybe not so much for you. One month in and they are sweet, playing disk golf they work well on all surfaces, dirt, grass, concrete, rocks, and a sweet toe bumper very useful. Hope they last as long as my Newport sandals have.

Love this shoe! This is the second pair in this style that I have had. Great shoe for gardening and working outside in any weather. Feet stay dry and comfortable. I added stretchy laces and they are perfect for quick on and off.

I ordered a size bigger than usual since Keens usually run small, but it still wasn't big enough with a 16. They also felt very narrow to me for a D. Ill try another style.

These are wonderful shoes! They give great support, and I can wear them all day. They're fabulous on hard, rough terrain or stone.

I love the shoe but tried a smaller size because the heel slipped. Result: Same heel slip problem. Too bad. I wish they fit right because I would have kept them for sure.

I have had at least five pairs of various styles of Keen shoes and boots, and I love them. Having problem feet they are extremely comfortable because of the cushy footbed. I found out early on that I needed to order a half size larger, so instead of a 9 1/2, I now order a 10.

I work in a hospital OR and I'm on my feet all day. I decided to give the Targhee II a try as a work shoe, and it has turned out to be a great choice. Some people might find them a little hard on the inside for this type of work, but they work great for me. The soles grip very well when various body fluids and disinfectants are on the floor, and spills aren't a problem because they're waterproof. As for hiking, I have another pair that I have worn for two years. The soles are quite worn and they look ratty, but they still have great mud-gripping ability. You can't go wrong buying these shoes.

Super comfortable, great shoe for all kinds of environments. I originally bought them to go hiking around Maine and ended up wearing them everyday after that.

First pair of Keen shoes Great shoe, perfect to size fit, no break in - good and comfortable right out of the box. Found waterproof an asset in snow and slush. Also wear for casual dress!

A very nice and durable sneaker for work, trail walking, etc. The only reason I returned it is that it was a bit too stiff in the sole than what I was looking for at the present time. Order a size larger than normal. I wear a size 12 in a Keen Voyageur, but a 13 in the Targhee II.

Great shoe but slipping at the heel. Will try another size.

Second pair...the only shoe that can survive greenhouse work. Highly recommended!

These shoes are true to description and Keen's tradition. The sole is firm stable for outdoor trails, there is minor heal slip, but very comfortable. I replaced the insoles with arch supports as is my practice.

I have own a least six pairs of these since they stopped making my favorite Salomon's. They are comfortable. They come practically broken in. The insoles vary for me they either wear out half way before the shoes wear out, or they last the whole time. I prefer the green superfeet. The laces a durable haven't broken a set ever. The tread wears fairly even. I wear out the heel first because I scuff my feet. They are very light weight. The colors always seem to turn black or brown in the end depending what color they started out as. The waterproofing seems to give out ofter about 8 months. but they get me throught the winter with help from small gators. So If you are a working person and on your feet all day. Alternately getting wet snowy and dried again. These as the shoes for you.

Great shoe. I wear these on bike rides, dog walks, and around town. They are comfortable in every aspect. Follow Zappos advice and get a half size larger. It turned out perfect. I wear a 9 and ordered a 9.5.

I have the Keen Targhee II Mid boots as well as the lower cut. Both pairs of shoes have been used without any complaints.

Very comfortable, sturdy, and all around great shoe. Feels about 1/4 size bigger than an average 11.

I got this shoe to replace an old pair of Targhee I Keens. This shoe felt stronger, had great support for light to moderate hiking, and is really comfortable as an every-day shoe too.

Great shoe. Took some time to break in. I work outside in Hawaii and I really needed something that was extremely waterproof. 45 days in and no leaks. The one small downside is that you cant tie the shoes real tight or else they will pinch across the top of the ankle.
