I splurged on these shoes to wear them at my job where hours of standing is required. I\'ve been really impressed by their fit and support, especially when I come home and put on my old tennis shoes and realized how much better the Keen structure feels. I\'ve had a bit of a problem with my little toes being pinched on my left side after 8 hours of standing, so that\'s unfortunate, but overall I\'m quite happy with these shoes.

I am 6 months pregnant and wear size 11 so store shopping was not very successful. Zappos saved the day again! After reading reviews that this shoe runs a bit roomy, I tried them out. I am so impressed with the comfort level. They are cute to wear with khakis or jeans. A little clunky but not heavy. The cushion in the heel helps comfort my ankles and knees as well. I'm so happy to find a cute comfy shoe to wear throughout the rest of my pregnancy and after.

Bought these because I developed plantar fasciitis from all those cute but cheap flipflops over the summer. So far, I love them. I had to return the first pair in my normal size because they were too big. Got them in a half size smaller, and they're fine. Still a bit big, but livable. Comfortable and good for my arches. They do require socks - they tend to rub in strange places, falling higher up the ankle than most shoes. Be warned; the shoes are more reddish-purple in color than brown.

I am a teacher and suffer from a heel spur which can really be painful after a day at work in shoes that provide no support. I ordered 3 pair of Keen Mary Janes and these were the ones that I kept. No break in period and no pain at the end of the day! I plan to order another pair in brown. Thanks Keen!

Very comfortable, felt very similar to my Venice H2 sandals (that I have lived in this summer). They do seem to run a tad big, but I always wear my M-J's with socks -- so it was a win for me.

It was instant love with these shoes. They are cushy, has great arch support (something I need help with) and is wide enough for my wide, wide feet. Also, unlike many other Mary Jane styles out there, the top part of the shoe was deep enough so it wasn\'t too tight and the straps are in a comfortable position. Finally, a pair of Mary Janes that fit my wide feet!

Very supportive shoes, good for standing all day or walking a lot in. Kind of clunky though, not a dainty shoe but comfort and support wins for me. If you get these and a part of the leather rubs you, just massage the leather and it will soften up. Also the original Murphy's Oil Soap, the thick kind, is a great leather cleaner and oiler, I grew up with horses and we always used it on our tack, mind you it will darken the leather. But it will also protect it.

I sell footwear for a living, and I also suffer from tendinitis in my left foot. So I am incredibly picky when picking out shoes for myself. That said, I love Keens, always have since I bought my first pair years ago. And these shoes do not disappoint! Keen has sort of revamped their classic style with the kind of big black toe cap. On this particular shoe it is smaller and more feminine looking. There is also a slight bit of a raise in the heel, which is actually good for your feet. The straps on these are stretchy too so you can slip them on without having to undo the buckle. They are very comfortable shoes, although they do run a bit big. I recommend them!

I bought this shoe based on reviews here and because I'm in desperate need of comfortable shoes with a lot of "give" in the material. I'm sorry to say, these shoes are not it. While the toe box for these shoes is wide, the material is hard and it presses on the top part of the foot, making for throbbing pain even while I'm sitting down. I'm returning mine.

I just got back from two weeks in Italy. With two neuromas in one foot, I spent an inordinate amount of time buying and returning shoes, searching for something that I could do some serious walking in. Formerly comfortable shoes aren't working at the moment. So, I can't over-state how thrilled I was with these shoes. In fact, I was able to forgo the Keen Voyagers, since the Toyah did double-duty. While not sleek, they're still super cute, in my opinion, and work with skirts, jeans, capris, etc. I wore them with and without socks. Normally I take a half-size larger in Keens, but these fit best in my actual size. I am also able to insert my 3/4-length custom orthotics, without removing the insole--ultimate comfort! I can't recommend these highly enough. They saved my vacation (along with the Abeo Huntington sandals).

These have been the most comfortable shoes I have worn in years. I have plantar fascitis and high arches - most shoes are agony for me to wear. The strap is adjustable, the toe box is wide and does not ride up too high against the top of my foot. These aren't stylish enough for the young, I would suppose, but they are attractive and suitable for even casual office wear.

This is a great shoe. I have narrow feet,that are "low volume" with high arches and my second toe is longer than the rest and back problems, so believe me, it is not easy to find a fit! These support my arches, accommodate the toe, and with a superfeet insert, they are perfect. The size 8, my usual size, was just right. They aren't exactly "narrow", but something about the footbed seems to accommodate my foot. Highly recommended!

I love these shoes. They fit great and are wonderful to walk long distances in. What was disappointing was that the foot strap broke after 6 months of wear. I have to applaud Zappos for their return service. They gave me a full refund for my shoes even after 5 months. I love Zappos!

I was diagnosed with Morton's neuroma and needed to find a shoe with a wide toe box. These did the trick. They are comfortable and cute, if a bit clunky. I am very happy with them.

I just returned from a 15 day trip to four countries in Europe and wore these shoes all day, almost every day. They were perfect for 80* to 50* days - even during the cold and wind. The only issue I had with them was that, for the first week of my trip they rubbed my heels and the side of my foot while climbing stairs. I hadn't really broken them in before I left, though, so this was understandable. All in all, they were fantastic, just like my Keens always are!

I first bought a pair of Keen Toyah MJs in the brown. Loved them but found that I wear more black clothing, so ordered the Toyah in black. I now wear these every almost day, both with and without socks. I have now ordered another pair in both the black as well as the bluestone color. Can hardly wait! I have wide feet and Keen shoes are among the few brands that I can wear without having to find a wide width. BTW, these are great shoes to slip on/off at airport security.

This is my 3rd Keen Mary Jane Style.
I plan on wearing this shoe on my trip to Europe this fall, as my alternate shoe.
It will be excellent for walking and also look fine with a skirt.
It does run about a 1/2 size too big for me, but I put a foam inner sole under the footbed and it solved the problem.

I love these shoes and thanks to Zappos now own them in Green, Blue, Grey and Brown (dark earth). They not only feel great, but never needed any breaking in. I can stay on them for 18 hours at a time and never feel foot fatigue. In addition to this, they are waterproof, which is great not only when it rains, but if I have to cross a wet lawn. The shoes show no signs of having encountered droplets of water. They're so comfortable and supportive I have completely stopped wearing my running shoes for long weekend walks, preferring these instead. Buy these while Keen still makes mary janes with full support and sturdiness. The newer styles (cloth exterior with flat, thin rubbery soles) cannot compare and will not hold up nearly as long.

I have "problem" feet and for me, these are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. I am a huge Keen fan, but some of their styles just don't work for me. I wore these shoes every day for 10 days in Italy this month where I walked all day long. My feet were very happy. I own 2 pairs in black and might consider getting a 3rd pair in another color.

Great shoe! I put in my custom orthotics and wore it all winter. I have the black and orded an 8.5. It was true to size. Very well made and worth the money!

I love these shoes. They run a little large, I had to order 1/2 size smaller than my Keen hiking boots. I got them for a week trip to Japan, lots of walking and I had no problems with no break-in period (wore 2 pair of thin socks). I use orthotics for plantar fasciitis. Just a bit on the wide side but that works for me.

I love these shoes. They are very comfortable and sturdy. I was glad that I read the other reviews before I ordered them, as they do run large. I usually wear size 10, but ordered a 9 1/2 which fit me perfectly.

These shoes are amazingly comfortable. I bought them for a trip to Canada where I would be in the city and in the country. I needed something versatile. They fit the bill. I could walk for miles on the city streets and look good too. The only thing I did find was that needed to wear thick enough socks or they would rub my heel raw. When I did this they were fine. I ordered a half size down as the other reviewers said and they worked great.
