Customer Reviews KEEN Presidio

I owned these in brown and looked all over for them in black. Most everyone told me they weren't available in black. Of course, Zappos had them in black! They are warm during this winter, wide in the toe box and did not require a break-in period. But I must confess I took out the insole and put in my blue arch Birkenstock insoles. They are absolutely perfect for 16 hours of standing.

The Keen Presidios are very comfortable. I ordered a 1/2 size up due to other customer reviews, but I feel the heel slips a bit when I'm walking, although the front fits perfect. I might have to order my regular size and compare them before returning one of them. They seemed very comfortable right off the bat when I was trying them on. The front looked a bit big (like a clown shoe) compared to the rest of the shoe so you have to get used to it, but they fit people with wide toes well and are sturdy. I've always bought New Balance shoes to zip around town before this, but New Balance shoes are not water-resistant/water-proof.

Great shoes, a little stiff at first, but once worn, are wonderful! True to size, and I have wide feet. Super fast shipping, love Zappos!

Great casual and dress up shoe - Love these shoes. I can dress them down or dress them up. Only issue is with the tongue, its very hard leather and hurts the tops of my feet. Hopefully will get better the more I wear them.

I love my new Keen Presidios! You may want to order 1/2 size up. Maybe its the shape of the toe box, but they seem a tiny bit small. Other than that, they are a great, comfortable shoe.

Mostly a good shoe. These are a more streamlined and better looking that Keen Briggs. Like all Keens, they're great for standing on your feet all day, but the heels slip a little, which is annoying for walking around.

It's almost perfect - I'm a longtime fan of Keen shoes, so I expected these to be comfortable and look great. My only problem with them is that they are much more "constructed" than the last pair of Keen lace-ups I bought (and which I have nearly worn out because I love them so much!). The Presidios are a bit heavier and clunkier -- something it's impossible to know about without actually trying them on (hard to do until they arrive). Once I had them on my feet, while they were not exactly what I had hoped (light, flexible, unlined leather) they are still great shoes and I will enjoy wearing them.

Mixed - I love the green color I bought. These are very comfortable when first slipped on, but taking my eight mile walk to downtown every weekend has compacted the padding. Also, the stiffness of leather resulted the shoe to rubbing raw spots on my poor feet, and I've found that I can only wear them with thick socks. I'm hoping they will soften up with use, but mostly I wish I'd returned them.

Keen Presidio - I love this shoe! From the moment I put it on, I knew it was my going to be my favorite winter shoe. I'm on my feet a lot, have back and leg issues, so shoes with good support are very important for me. I can wear them all day, everyday, without leg and back fatigue. The only problem for me was the back of the shoe comes up a bit high on my heel, so there was a little break in time for that, but now they feel great.

Needs Breaking in - First, I found ordering a half-size larger was correct. Felt great for the first day wearing though a little stiff, but they are new. They also took my otc sport shoe orthotic perfectly. On the second day of wearing these on my usual 3 mile walk, the back of one of my ankles was rubbed raw. I've had this happen with Keen sneakers (I've read someone else had this problem). Having found these so comfortable on day one and greatly needing a pair of walking shoes, I decided to give these shoes a break-in period. I've worn them in short spurts gradually building up wearing time which has made a difference. I've also found that once the leather around the back of the ankle warmed from body heat, the leather begins to loosen up. I've treated mine with mink oil and continued a gradual breaking in and I think these will be fine now. Bottom line: they weren't great straight out of the box, but they are gradually becoming great shoes.

This shoe is comfortable but I expected more from when I read the past reviews. It's not the most comfortable shoes I have own but overall they are ok.

Keen Presidio - I've ordered this shoe in 10 1/2 and 11 - and am keeping both sizes. The smaller size seemed smaller than it should be relative to the larger size. But, it will work with a thin sock and the larger size will work with a thicker sock. Both sizes seem a bit wide for a medium width but perhaps it's the nature of the style. The shoe has good arch support but has a more rigid and less cushioned sole than I would like. I like the shoe, just don't love it.

Great Winery working shoe - I work in a winery in Temecula and the floor is epoxy coated and very slippery when wet. These shoes are warm, lightweight, and comfortable and slip proof. My right toe is slightly longer than my left toe, and it rubs a little bit but maybe I should have gotten a larger size? My boss has a pair in men's and loves them too. In fact he was the one to recommend them. The price at Zappos is cheaper than Eddie Bauer catalogue as well and Free shipping!
