Absolutely love the look of these boots! Unfortunately, because of my bunions, they're too tight in the instep. I still love Keens:-) And I LOVE ZAPPOS!!!

I bought these as a winter work boot and adore them! I purchased them in the purply color. I adore that color. I'm a wedding photographer and needed something I could wear for 12-15 hours. These were the first shoes that left me pain free all day! Very comfy. I had no issues with slipping.

I really love these boots! They look very stylish and edgy, but they're comfortable, too. I'm able to tuck skinny jeans into them with no problem. The only issue I've had with them so far is that the instep is a bit snug, so that sometimes my socks get turned funny in them, and I'll have to take my foot out and straighten my socks, then start again. Otherwise, they are my favorite boots in a long time. Love the Forest color, too.

I wanted a boot to wear with skirts that had a riding boot flair. This style was what I wanted. The product info said the boot was leather lined. The leather in the shaft felt like plastic. I went into REI to see if their leather felt differently. The display ones in a smaller size were wonderfully lined. My size, however, had the cheap plastic feeling lining. Wonder how the size you order will be. My size is an 8 1/2. The rating I give this boot reflects the discomfort of the shaft lining. I size up one half in Keen.

Going back East to view Fall colors and this is just what I was looking for! Warm, comfortable, waterproof and feels like I could walk all day in these babies. My calves are 14 1/2 inches and I have no problem tucking in my jeans. Now if they just don't have a sudden heat wave.

Dark green color very dark, great leather. Super comfortable. True to size. My issue is narrow calves. Let's of boots don't fit, they flap around, which I hate. So these really do adjust down, I am not even on the smallest setting. They do bunch a little, but not badly. Very happy.

I scoured the internet, malls, shoe stores, for comfortable, cute, molded-sole boots. This is exactly what was in my mind's eye, and then some! I love the forest night color, it is kind of a dark gray-green. The buckles give a little flair, but my main priority is comfort. I have size 11 feet, bunions, tendonitis and generally unhappy feet. I ordered 4 pairs and these were the clear winners which is good, because they were also the cutest! I cannot wait to wear them all the time this winter.

These boots are great! I'm 4ft 10 and its hard to find a knee boot that doesn't cut into me at the crease; these were the perfect length. If you don't want to do the work to break them in, then order a half size up. I ordered my size, threw them into the bath and then wore them for a hour, they fit great!

These are very comfy, and the Keen toe is not as pronounced as on other shoes from the brand. I will say that they looked a tad bit ducky when I tried them on, because the toe box is not as narrow as on dress boots. However, I got these because I wanted something more comfortable than heeled dress boots, and have gotten used to the width. It's a great boot for when you want to look nice but avoid heels. I haven't had a problem with the soles being slippery.

I loved these boots when I got them and I wish I could have loved them longer. Apparently these boots are not meant to be worn every day. The soles on both boots cracked right at the ball of my foot quite soon after getting them. They are ruined and I've had them less than a year.

A truly lovely boot. Beautiful leather and workmanship, comfortable, made my feet look really small and the shaft fit very nicely around my 14 1/2" calves even over knee socks and jeans. However, the foot is a tiny, tiny bit small both in length and width so I ordered and received an 8 1/2 which fits better in the foot. The downside is the calf is a tiny bit larger but I'm willing to put up with that for a happy foot! I think if you want these and are worried about size, especially width, go a 1/2 size larger. I can't wait for cool weather so I can wear these out and about! I think they'll go with pretty much everything so between that and the comfort level my black boot fetish is currently satisfied.

I love these boots, so much that I found them in brown. I am a Hairdresser on my feet all day. These boots look professional with a dress or skirt, and on the weekends I can wear them over jeans.

I was looking for a boot to wear in wet and winter conditions as well as I will be walking a lot in these. I cannot comment on the waterproofing yet, but they are comfortable and look nice. I am a loyal fan of the Keen look, I have many Keen shoes, and sandals and so does the rest of my family. These boots lack the signature Keen "look" of the toe, though. That I am disappointed about but I am hoping the quality will be what else Keen always delivers.

I never thought I'd spend this kind of money for boots. But I am really glad that I did. My feet are wide and it is hard to find shoes that are comfortable at the ball without being too long. These boots fit perfectly, are super comfortable, and held up in a blowing downpour in New York. I hate slogging around in the wet with non-waterproof shoes. The boot also kept my feet dry while walking around for about two hours in a drizzle. They look great and I got a lot of compliments.

These boots are absolutely awesome. I normally wear a 5½ size, but given the reviews, went with a size 6 and they fit perfectly! I bought them because I need to walk during my commute to work, and the soles are great support, and they keep me warm on a chilly day. The only con is that the calf part may be a little tight, but I was still able to zip them up through skinny jeans. Overall, these are extremely comfortable and cute!

Wish Zappos would have more boots for those with larger calves! These boots fit comfortably. However, I cannot tuck my jeans into them. Very good looking boots.

Very cute, and they looked well built and sturdy without being clunky. However, there were a little too snug around my muscular runner's calves. The boot itself was a fairly tight fit as well, but I did get my foot into it and it was comfortable once it was in there.

Comfortable and stylish, the trademark keen insole is a huge plus! I have really high arches so all of my shoes insole has to be replaced with my own but since the insole is easy to remove this didn't prove to be a problem. I am 5'3 and the boots hit me a few inches below the knee.

I bought these shoes about a year and half ago and absolutely love them. When first trying them on I worried that they would not have enough traction on icy streets. However, I wore them around Boston for two weeks in the middle of winter and felt completely secure. I was also surprised at how well they stood up to the moisture. I was sure that I ruined the leather walking through a few feet of snow, but one year later they still look great! I would definitely order at least a half size up if you want to wear them with thick socks. The heel rubbed a bit on my feet, but I don't think they would have if I would have returned them for a larger size. The calf opening is rather small, so it is difficult to tuck pants into if that is what you are after. Other than that, these are fantastic boots!

I had these boots about 4 months and they were the most comfortable boots I ever owned, but like some of the other reviewers the soles cracked right across the bottom of both boots. I would love another pair, but since they can't be replaced or fixed, I am sticking to my old brand with replaceable soles.

I have to admit, I have fat cankles and have not been able to find a pair of boots that fit over them... until the Bern Baby Bern Boot! These boots make my ankles look skinny. They were tight and I really had to work the zipper to fit over my calves the first time wearing them. However, the leather and stretch panel really give and finally mold to your legs. They are extremely comfortable, very well made, and my favorite boots ever!

I love these boots and just wore them every day for three weeks while traveling in Europe in late February, on city streets, cobble stones, in rain and muddy fields. I have knee problems and bunions and hammer toes and I was completely comfortable and amazed that I was! I actually got half a size larger when I tried them on and they fit with mid-heavy socks. Later, they were too big and were rubbing my heel. I added moleskin to the boot back and had one of my most comfortable and fashionable travel shoes.

Cute, everyday winter boots! They are sturdy and comfortable and great for commuting/walking to work and home during Minnesota winters. They also go well with different type of pants and can be dressed up to business casual. I just wish that they were available in my size in purple.

These are the boots! Buy them. I live in Portland, OR and, yes, it is wet. These boots keep my feet dry while walking and biking. I wear them everywhere. They have great support and for those of us with not so skinny legs the calf is large enough to fit those of us who have cows and not calves. I can wear them through spring without tights and they are adorable.
