I needed a new pair waterproof light hiking boots for this winter, and these have worked well so far. I have plantar fasciitis; which limits my choices. My foot didn't hurt at all despite hours on my feet in these. Even without my orthotics, though these have a removable footbed and fit the orthotics nicely. These shoes are comfortable, relatively lightweight, and keep my feet dry when I'm outdoors in the the wet, rainy Pacific Northwest. They've even done well in the snow!

These have been very good shoes. One reviewer correctly noted that they seem not to hug the heel very tightly, which is probably my fault for complaining about too tight with a similar style. Overall looks good, very comfy right from the start. Black shoe is kind of navy in the light.

I pretty much need these shoes to work. I am on my feet all day. They are long-lasting and look semi-dressy.

I love these shoes. This is my second pair. I have a dress pair and a outdoor pair. Like a slipper when new.

Excellent walking\/hiking shoe. The arch support is great, as with all Keens. I literally wore our my first pair.

These were great right out of the box. I have been wearing them to power walk, and my feet love them!

I love these shoes! They came right out of the box and were worn over two weeks of hiking in the mountains of Utah and Colorado. Very comfortable. No "hot" spots of any kind. I would highly recommend them for anyone who hates breaking in hiking boots.

I owned this style for many years and my feet grew, so I had to up a size. Love that they have great support and are cushy at the same time!

This shoe provides excellent arch support. The cushioning is superb. Seems just a bit bigger than the size ordered.

I needed a good walking/hiking shoe for a month long trip to Scotland. We walked several miles each day on all types of terrain, and these shoes kept my feet dry, comfy and blister free (unlike several of my companions). Haven't had them too long, so can't comment on longevity, but so far, I love them.

Overall the look and fit of the shoe are great. Like most other Keens, they did not need any significant break in time. They were comfortable straight out of the box. I have a pair of Targhee II boots and needed a 1\/2 larger than my regular size so I ordered a 1\/2 size larger on these and they feel a little big. Not quite big enough to return but not as snug a fit as my boots. I do have a slight issue with one of the tongues causing some pressure on the top of my foot. Once again not bad enough to send it back, but certainly not as comfortable as the other shoe. The traction from the sole is great. The service from Zappos was awesome as usual. I love shopping at Zappos.

I have the Targhee II Mids also and bought these for those dry summer days when I don't need the higher, warmer all leather boot. The soles are exactly the same. These are great for hiking right out of the box. I love Keen Targhee boots, they are the only kind that fit me. For this boot, they fit my normal size.

Fantastic shoe. I recently a ordered a bunch of Keen styles to replace my Merrells, which are a little painful for me now. The Targhee II sizes and feels like the Voyageur (and Presidio), but feels more substantial somehow (not sure why, as they seem to have the same amount of leather versus webbing). I find that Keens run a little smaller for me (I usually take 7.5 or 8, but an 8.5 in Keen).

Great shoe - super comfortable and good support. Tongue is a little weird (attached, hard to readjust), but nothing too bothersome. Good looking. Originally ordered 1/2 a size larger, based on the reviews, but found it was too big. Returned it and got my true size - perfect fit.

This is my second pair of these shoes and I love them. I work at a busy veterinary practice and I am on my feet all day. They give great support, and are just plain comfortable. They fit true to size although they are snug when you first get them they stretch out after about a week.

I just bought these shoes and love them! However, I can be anywhere from a 7 to 8 in shoe size, but am a 7.5 80% of the time. I really debated over what size to order, and because of the reviews I saw here, I ordered the 8. Too big. This shoe is true to size, and I just don\'t know why people say it runs small. I ended up getting the 7.5, and it really fits perfectly -- I still have wiggle room!

Just hiked 13 miles in these this weekend! And my feet still feel great. I think they do run a little small, and you're supposed to make sure you have plenty of room for hiking. So, even though I usually wear a 8.5 to 9 and I have a narrow foot, I got these in a 9.5. I pull them tight and they are perfect with my Smartwool trail-runner socks. I was so impressed with these over the weekend, I just ordered my second pair of Keens, some stylish everyday boots. We'll see how they do.

I am so happy with these shoes. I ordered a 1/2 size up after reading the reviews and they are perfect with socks. The best part is, I was upgraded to one day shipping and given VIP status afterwards. Now I will always get one day service. I have never been unhappy with anything from Zappos. Several people in my family feel the same way.

I love my new Keen shoes. I researched the internet for the best price and I found it here with free shipping to me and free return shipping if needed! (Say if I wasn't happy with the fit or color of the shoes.) This company rocks! I will look them up again for all of my future shoe needs. So many choices. It was a good idea I bought it a half size bigger than my normal shoe size. A very comfortable shoe. I get many compliments as well. I work on my feet all day, putting on over 10 miles a day on concrete. I did add a heel gel, and I am in heaven. My feet ache less, and I know I am getting the proper support that I need. Fits like a glove. I got upgraded to fast shipping and believe me, it was fast! Hope you will be enjoying your new Keens soon.

This is a great hiking shoe. My first trip with the Targhee II was a week hiking bits of Vermont's Long Trail. Handled wet, steep, rocky trails with ease. The "quick dry" fabric is exactly what it says on the tin - even after stepping in a pothole full of muck, my socks stayed dry. These are WIDE shoes, with plenty of room in the toebox. I did notice a little heel slipping, but it wasn't uncomfortable. I ordered up 1/2 size, and was glad I did. One warning, if you're looking for more ankle support, you may want to consider the 3/4 height version of this shoe.

This is my second pair of these shoes. I LOVE THEM! I couldn't find them in the store anymore. My first pair are still functional but only for the dog park. My second pair will go with jeans while I'm out and about and not wanting to look dog park ready. I must say that the first pair held up pretty darn good in the snow storms we had this winter. These were the shoes I wore in and out of the snow and my feet never got wet at ALL! I love them, roomy toe box, comfortable...I think you'll love them too!

Great shoes from the start, and still going strong. I bought them to go on a trip to Europe in April (and received them in 1 day - yay for Zappos overnight shipping!!!) and needed something comfortable and waterproof - these did the trick! I didn't even get blisters when breaking them in. Can't wait to hit the hiking trails with them this summer. Many friends have raved about Keen shoes for a long time and I am now officially a fan as well. Be sure to heed the advice of going 1/2 size larger than usual though; otherwise they would have been too tight/short.

Absolutely great shoes: so comfortable. Keen is my favorite brand. Have tons of their shoes, sneakers and sandals. They make my feet happy. Also get lots of positive remarks and give info about Zappos all the time: The best people to deal with!!!

The Targee II rocks! I work at a boys’ school in a rural area. I am on my feet a lot on varied terrain. I had polio as a child, am now 64 years old, and have a lot of physical disabilities… none of which has ever stopped me from being very active. This shoe is the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn! The shoe accommodates my orthotics as if it were made to do so. My feet are never tired at the end of a long day. When I come home, I feed my horses and the last thing I do is take of my wonderful Targees! Thank you Zappos!

My 6th pair of Keens -
I love these shoes. Needed a pair of go-to shoes for weekend trips. Relied on my open Keens usually, but for colder, wetter trips needed something else. Wear a 6.5 or 7 and ended up with the 7's. At first a little uncomfortable on top, but after 2 wears they are my favorites
