Customer Reviews KEEN Kaci Slip On

Giving them 4 "overall" rather than 5, only because they're a bit difficult to put on (smaller opening than I was expecting), but once on, I love these shoes! Very comfortable for all day walking/standing. I'm sure with more use the opening will stretch a bit. Love the shade of green - exactly what I was looking for.

These were the cutest shoes. Very stylish. However, I have a very high instep and had a really hard time getting these shoes on. I knew that I would beat them up every time I wore them. They were fairly comfortable once they were on. I returned these, sadly. I'm still very satisfied...'cause Zappos has great customer service and an excellent return policy!

I have a pair of these from last year that I wear with nylons so I ordered this pair 1/2 size larger so I could wear it with socks. It is extremely hard to get on--once my foot is inside, they feel good and I love them, but they don't seem to loosen and frankly I haven't even tried them on with a sock yet. I'm disappointed. I even tried taking them to a shoe repair place to see if they could put in a looser piece of elastic but they said it was in too hard a place for them to sew in. I think the shoe needs a slight re-design or a lot looser elastic used. I've even considered cutting the elastic! I do sort of feel like the ugly stepsister trying to get her foot in the Cinderella's glass slipper except once they are on, they are okay...

They looked like they'd be comfy, but I couldn't get it on my foot at the elasticized opening.

Love Keens. Have several pairs so was sure I would be getting a great shoe with the Kaci. I ordered a 7.5 which is what all my other Keens are. When the shoes arrived, I was surprised by how big they were! I returned them and ordered a 6.5 and a 7. I ultimately decided to keep the 7s though they're still a little big. (I'd have kept the 6.5s but they were a tad "shallow" and short for my second toe which is longer than my big toe.) I have very flat and narrow feet. Keen makes great shoes - the Kaci just happens to run big. Order a half size smaller.

Sadly, I will be returning these shoes. They fit very tight across the top. After a shattered ankle 6 years ago, I lived in Keen Mary Janes - every color. I still have them but wanted a change for winter. The Kaci slip on still has the fantastic footbed, arch support, plenty of toe room, just like the mary janes, however, across the strap is so very tight. I can barely get them on without socks. They're a great looking "clunky" shoe. I love them. Unfortunately, the fit isn't right for my feet.

I hoped I could use these as walking shoes. If you have a narrow foot like me, don't even bother trying these. They're cute but the strap does not adjust at all and on a narrow foot they'll be lose in the heel, plus the toe box is huge. I wish Keen would make narrows!

I really wanted to love this shoe. It's adorable, just not completely comfortable. I have a bit of a high instep making it a little difficult to get them on and a little too tight to wear for long periods. They have loosened up a bit since I got them and I do wear them fairly often, they're just not my favorite Keen. Length and width felt true to Keen sizing.

I have a high arch and wide feet and have trouble with clog style shoes like Sanita or Dansko. I had the same trouble with this shoe, too tight on the top of my foot, and I'll have to return them. A beautiful quality and color, I blame my feet!

These shoes are hard to put on! I have never, ever, encountered a shoe that fits this weird. The toe box is enormous, so if you have giant Hobbit toes, you're in luck. But the instep is extremely low, and the opening is not very flexible. Hence, you have to force your foot in, and not all of your sock wants to go. I was hoping for a shoe with more give with which I could wear different thicknesses of socks, depending on the cold. Unfortunately, if I go for the 9, the shoe itself is too big unless I wear a really thick sock all the time. If I go for the 8.5 (a half size less than I usually wear), the shoe fits in the length & toes, but I can only wear a thin cotton sock or else my foot won't go through the hole. I decided to keep the 8.5. I'm going to try them for a week or so, but they might end up being the first shoes I ever try to return after wearing them outdoors. Also, even with the 8.5 I still have enough room in the toes for a family of 4. I am considering renting it out to help defray the cost of my mortgage. Honestly, who has feet shaped like this?

On the positive side, these shoes are very comfortable. The arch support is great and they're comfy to walk or stand in for long periods. But on the negative side, they're really hard to get on. "Slip on" is a misnomer. I bought them with the understanding that they would loosen up in time. But that didn't happen, which has been disappointing because I was specifically looking for something that would slip on easily, that didn't have to be tied or buckled or anything. This is not that shoe. So if you don't mind wrestling them on, go for it. Otherwise, keep looking.

I want to love this shoe just like everyone else but I must admit it's pretty difficult. I ordered a half size larger because Keens seem to run small most the time. I could barely cram my foot in there. Once I did, and I am telling you it took so much cramming I thought I would have to go up another half size, wore them around the house for a few days and they now feel too large, even though it is still tricky to get on in the first place. Ugh! The heel is very stiff and causes pain around my achilles heel. I love the style but this fit has me questioning whether the price is worth it. So bummed!

Love this shoe, but this particular pair SQUEEKS when I walk. They are so noisy... I cannot sneak up on anyone, ever!

I love Keens, but I had to return this pairl. It was a struggle to get my foot into the shoe even using a shoe horn due to the long, and tight, construction of the upper leather. Once on, the shoe had all the comfort for which I love the Keen brand. But, I don't want to work that hard to put on, or take off a shoe.

When people said that these shoes were difficult to get on, they were not kidding. I almost sent them back. Almost. I've had them for about two months and they have only gotten a tiny bit easier to get on. But, they look amazing. Really sharp shoes. Once they are on they feel fine, but getting them on is so hard. I have "normal" sized feet also.

I have PF, so finding shoes that I can wear "as is" or that I can put in my orthotics is a challenge. I thought these would work - they look great with jeans and seem very sturdy, although a bit heavy. The support they came with was great, but I could also take out the inserts and put in my own (which I tried). The problem is that they rub up and down on the back of my foot, and that was a bit annoying (particularly with a heavy shoe.) I wear an 8.5B and the sizing on it everywhere else was spot on, but not in the heel. I tried a heavier sock, and that helped a bit, but didn't completely resolve the slipping.

Returning the shoe because the foot opening is just too tight. Comfortable enough after squeezing into the shoe, but the "squeeze" is difficult. Very surprising based on the photos.

I love the look of this shoe. I love keen brand. But when I ordered my true size my foot would not go in. I reordered a I/2 size larger and I can get my foot in fine but the shoe is loose on my foot. I love this look but it is not as comfortable as I would like. The arch support is not under my arch since it is a little big.

I have a love/hate relationship with Keen. So many of their shoes are among my favorites, but their inconsistent sizing makes me crazy. I have two pairs of the Keen Kaci Slip on in black in size 10, so I ordered the same in the brown. After a day of wearing them, my big toes ached from being squished up against the front of the shoe. Alas, a size 10 in brown is not the same as a size 10 in black. Since the shoes have been worn, I am out the money and have shoes I can't wear. Boo. I always knew Keen was inconsistent across shoe models (I have Keens in sizes 9.5 to 11), but now I sadly also know they are inconsistent within shoes. If you can get the size right, these shoes are cute and reasonably comfy.

This shoe is not fashionable; however, it is comfortable. I needed a black shoe to use for running errands, and it does the job. However, it does run larger than others I've tried. I generally wear 8.5W or 9M. The 9M in this shoe was bigger than expected and it is one of those shoes that looks big. So, if you want fashion, this may not be the shoe for you. If I had more time, I would have exchanged it for the 8.5M. Overall, I am happy with the comfort.

I have had Keen slip ons before, but this is the hardest shoe to slip on. I have worn the shoe daily for over three weeks and it is still a struggle to get on. Other wise the stlye and comfort are great and I walked all over France in them for 11 days.

I work retail & needed to find a comfy shoe to wear in a very large store. I initially got a 7 because my feet swell from being on them all day & going up, down, & around the store. I've had to wear a half size up in every other shoe I've worn for work. 7 was too big. I exchanged for the 6 1/2 which still felt big, maybe because they run wide & I have narrow feet. I stuck with it & it took about a week to break in. still hurts my heel every time I have to squeeze my feet in them. Also, my feet get extremely hot in them by mid-day. I really wanted to love these shoes, but they're not horrible either.

Well, I really wanted this shoe to work out. It was so cute in the picture and even cuter in person. However, as per many other reviews - the opening is way too narrow! I have a pretty narrow foot, but could not get my foot into the shoe. If only it had a bit more give. Sadly, I had to return the shoe.

I loved these shoes. They fit my feet perfectly and were really the most comfortable ones I owned until I noticed one day that the sole was coming off. Shocking from such a well made company! I was so devastated. Especially because I was about six months pregnant and was entering into the where's my feet stage. I returned them to Zappos but they didn't have my size in a replacement so I had to settle for something else.

I completely agree with the Cinderella story! I have a long (size 10) narrow (not quite a B) foot and this shoe was even painful to try and slide in to. With my laced shoes, the eyelets almost always meet in the middle until midfoot. I don't like Danskos because they are so wide I feel like my foot is in a boat and I constantly worry about twisting an ankle because there is so much slide. I ordered a 9 1/2 (there were no size 10's available) hoping it might fit. My toe was a bit jammed but I might have kept it had it not been for the extremely tight midfoot of the shoe. It's a very cute shoe and I'm disappointed it didn't work for me. Keen, if you read these reviews please give us more cute slip ons!
