Customer Reviews KEEN Targhee II Waterproof

Don't Assume You Need a Half Size Larger - First, this is my third pair of Keen's. My favorite pair has been the Taos. That's why I decided upon the Targhee as a warmer walking shoe, since it resembles the Taos style. I walk about 5 miles per day. I just got my Targhee's and did my 5 mile walk. These feel as good as my Taos on the road, just out of the box. They are warmer and heavier, but provide better foot protection. Many have said to get a size larger. I usually get a size 9, but my foot is really a size 8.75 (if they existed). Meaning, a size 9 may or may not have a little extra space for my foot. These shoes fit perfectly. I would say they are really an 8.75 size. If you normally are tight in size 9 shoes, you will want to go up a half size. I use to buy 8.5 shoes and hope they worked. Error on the side of extra space is better for your feet. Another outstanding feature of this shoe is the insole. I normally replace the factory insoles with a high quality one (Superfeet, SOL, etc). When I removed the insole to replace it, I noticed the factory insoles are High Quality (possibly made by SOL). These are as good as any $30 insole you might buy. Provides plenty of cushion and arch support. Feels like a good hiking shoe. I might add that they appear better than the picture.

DB - Great shoe...extremely comfortable and good looking!

One of the most comfortable shoes - It's a great shoe but their is one problem witch is its little bit narrow from the front it even hurt my toe and am not the only one who felt that their where another guy before me and he mentioned some about it but I didn't care and I bought it 'cuz it look real nice and last longer than what you think.

My favorite Keen so far - I have 2 sets of Keen sandals (Jamestown and Newport), a pair of Bronx, and now the Targhees. These shoes rule! Keen comfort and durability. Very lightweight but flexible. A little on the warm side (but it's still summer here) and a little tighter than my other Keens (I always get size 9 US). Will be great shoes for hiking and biking, ready to test out the waterproof-ness. Nice reflectable stripes for nightwear. Keens are the best shoes available!

great shoe - runs small - We bought these sandals for our father who really likes to ride his new Wet Bike a lot. The place where he docks it is really in the woods and these shoes make the transition from water to woods to car well. They did run small, my father takes a 13 usually but in these he took a 15 to give room for socks.

GET THESE SHOES AND THROW THE REST OF YOUR SHOES AWAY - I have the Bronx. Brooklyn, Newport & the Banff. I wanted a full season hiking shoe and the Targhee fits the description. Great look with the excellent Keen comfort and support...

Great Trail Shoe! Not only did this pair of shoes arrive in 1/2 the time (thanks Zappos) but they are more than what I expected. Because they are waterproof and constructed with leather, they are a little warm for the summer months but that's not why I bought them. Solidly constructed and very comfortable, these are going to be great fall trail shoes. They have excellent support and are surprisingly springy in the heel. True to size, the break in time should be minimal. Oh yeah, they're even pretty cool looking as far as Keen's go.
