Customer Reviews KEEN McKenzie

I love Keens. These are great with one exception: they are too hot. Granted it is summer, but I bought his shoe as an alternative to my Keen flip flops and if I wear them without socks my feet sweat like crazy. Very comfortable as far as fit, but just too hot. Have resorted to wearing no show socks and it solves the problem.

Great shoes. No, they have no arch support and very little midsole, which is what minimalist shoe wearers like me enjoy, but it really bugs me that the think little footbed liner comes out everytime I take them off. A solid footbed would have worked better, though maybe it would have added too much weight. Otherwise a great shoe.

I bought this shoe for my boyfriend. Love the way it looks! He loves it too for comfort... But watch out. They start to stink pretty bad after a month or two of wear. I figured they were went to be worn without socks, but maybe socks will help keep the smelliness from creeping up. Fortunately, you can scrub them up easily and can also change the insole.

I really wanted to love this beautiful shoe. It has all the features I want except, unlike the other four pairs of Keens I own, there is almost no arch support. That wrecks it for me.

Zappos should label these shoes 'Water Shoes' because that is specifically what Keen does. Very misleading to describe these as 'Hiking'. They will not fit or lace like a hiking shoe. I normally wear a 13 D but these were at least a full size too long & wide...felt like a 14-15 EE.

I work at a camp in northern MN and I needed something that could protect my feet as well as have the comfort of a sandal and these looked like the perfect fit. However, they ended up being the worst of both worlds. When they got wet it took two days of sitting out to dry (I would've been better off just using my hiking shoes) and the mesh made the the perfect trap for dirt and sand to get in but not out making it very uncomfortable. I loved the free shipping and fast delivery but the product was just poorly designed.

I have owned several pairs of Keens and these shoes did not have the arch support that any of the others did. I purchased and added my own insoles with good arch supports and then wore them for about eight months. Unfortunately the strap that runs along the inside and the outside of the shoes below the ankles (makes a V-shape, pierces through the outer wall of the shoe) quickly started being cut in half by the shoe, itself. I am surprised that others are not returning these and giving them negative reviews. I cannot be the only one who experienced this. They are very breathable shoes, but I would never purchase them again. Thankfully, Zappos agreed with me on the defect and gave me a store credit, even after a number of months of wearing them.

I have tried two pairs of these shoes but I returned both for the same reason. After about two to three weeks of normal wear the insoles lose hold of the bottom of the shoe and ride up when you walk, to the point where they literally can be seen. I really like these shoes which is why I have tried this twice. When they function properly they are super comfortable. But, when the insole starts riding up they become unwearable. You have been warned. BTW this is the only shoe I have ever returned.
