Customer Reviews KEEN Utility PTC Slip-On II (Soft Toe)

I love these shoes. Thick soles, yet comfortable and easy to slip on and off. They have become my go to shoes for yard work and errands.

I bought these for my son-in-law who is a restaurant manager and is on his feet 10+ hours. He has a wide foot and says these shoes are a perfect fit.

These shoes are great. Durability is pretty good. The last pair I had lasted 2 years in a kitchen. After 1.5 years they started to hurt my feet. Got some insoles and they lasted another 6 months. I just ordered another pair. Working chef hours of 10-12 hours/day 2 years out of a pair of shoes is pretty good I feel. Not as good as the old Danskos but a great comfortable shoe for chefs.

These were a purchase for our son who is a chef. He loves them! Says they are so... Comfortable too. They arrived the day after we ordered them & he happened to be visiting us so we were both thrilled. Fast service & quality products for sure.

I work 12 hour shifts bar tending 5 nights a week without fatigue mats to walk on. Regularly running 3 flights of stairs. Most of my non work shoes are keens. These are not only the best "nonslip" shoes I've owned to date but the most comfortable. Within a week of working in them my joints don't hurt anymore. Five stars!

I love these shoes. I just purchased my second pair to replace the originals. I wore the originals for just under a year average 6 days a week 10 hours a day. They held up very nicely until about month 8, when the nonslip was becoming worn, and the glue on the right sole became undone. Under the heavy use I think that is expected though. As far as comfort goes, I don't think I have ever owned a better kitchen shoe. From the first time I put them on, they were always incredibly comfy. I find these shoes very easy to clean. The treads are wide enough to spray out any food bits that might be trapped and the tops and sides are easy to clean with a towel. Keen has a great product line. I also own a pair of their hiking boots. Buy em!

I am the Executive Chef at a restaurant and work some very crazy and long hours. These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever had in this environment. I walk on hard, sometimes wet floors all day and love these shoes. This is my second pair!

Finally a Keen shoe for Service Professionals. Great shoe for Automotive Service shop, sole is good on shop floor. The Keens feel so good it is like wearing bedroom slippers to work.

I had to buy men size because women's don't come wide enough. I wear a size 10 wide so I got an 8 in men. They are a little bit big but they work fine. I am on my feet all day being a barista and walking on wet floors, no slipping. They are great.

These are very nice shoes. They support my feet well after a long 10 hour shift at work. The shoes are built to last and very well constructed. I am thinking of buying another pair.

I'm writing this review as I'm here looking to buy my second pair, after wearing these every day at work for something like 3-something years now. As a nurse, I am on my feet for 12-16 hour shifts at a time, often up to six days in a row. Originally had Dansko clogs because, well, that's what "everyone" swears by. I suffered nearly debilitating lower leg, knee and foot pain for years - I always thought it was just because of the physically demanding work. Then one day I overheard another nurse saying how Danskos never worked for her. They were a bit worn down, so after reading hundreds upon hundreds of reviews of different shoes, I went for these Keens from Zappos (I think mine are the original version, not the "II" selling now). Wow, my legs, knees and feet have never been more happy. I used to hardly be able to even walk after a long shift (not joking), and after wearing these Keens I can't remember a day that I had pain after a shift. Sore and exhausted, sure - but no pain. By far, hands down, the most comfortable shoe I could imagine wearing at work. I'd say they don't wear well, but I've had mine for about 3 years which I think is pretty good. Probably should have been replaced about a year ago. They accommodate pretty much any insole - which is good cause the ones they come with, though nice, don't last terribly long. If I had any complaints, they aren't enough to lower my ratings: 1 - Being a leather upper, over time the fit becomes looser and looser 2 - I've never been fond of the signature Keen "look", if you know what I mean. That said, the look is still pretty reserved for Keens and they certainly don't look out of place in a hospital. 3 - Insoles don't last long, but are easily replaceable with anything you like.

I am an RN and a big dude (290lb. & 6ft). Combine those two facts with the busyness of my unit, I walk at least five miles a shift, and good shoes are a MUST. This will be the third pair I have owned and haven't found another shoe that allows me to pound the floor all day without any residual foot pain. I have wide feet with a high arch and these do provide moderate arch support. I have found that I wear out the insert that comes with the shoes after about six months; at that point, I use an orthotic insert as a replacement. I really like the fact the toe box is spacious unlike other tennis shoes I have tried which ultimately crammed my toes together and just never provided a good fit. I also like the uninterrupted leather top and the toe protection. More than once I have had the disinfecting wipes out wiping fluids -which I won't describe- from my shoes. They are true to there claim as a non-slip shoes. Many times I am standing in a puddle of water showering a patient who gets more water on me and the floor than themselves without any traction issues. The first pair I owned are still in use as gardening shoes but have become too scuffed to wear and still look professional. The second pair are still trucking and the only reason I am replacing them is because our hospital has changed the dress code and I have to get black. This first pair had the tread wore off after about a year, but overall the shoe was in good shape. The second pair doesn't have the tread wear of the first, but this pair has the plastic part coming off the back; because, I put one foot behind the other and use the toe of the other foot to take them off. They do look worn. I may have extended their life if I used a leather conditioner and polish. If you work in an area where you don't have to worry about your shoes looking worn, these should last a while. I average about a year and a half before replacing them.

I work in healthcare and do the 12 hour shifts. After 10 years and countless shoes I have finally found it in this shoe. It is amazing. I just finished 7 12 hour's in a row and my feet feel great. Buy this shoe!

I am a chef, and on my feet 9-10 hours a day 5 days a week.After trying lot of different work shoes including Danko, Birkenstock, and Merrils , I gave these Keen Utility PTC slip ons a try and now am on my third pair over 4 and a half years. They are comfortable, especially with Super Feet( or Sole brand) in-soles. They are also very anti-slip. I like the way they look, and they all so seem to wear well. I am very hard on shoes and these seem to last a little over a year with every day use. At that tim they get streached out and the tread on the sole starts to wear to the point where they are not as anti-slip.I find that they are easy to clean if you wipe them off every day, If you let them get gunked up for a period of time, then they are going to stay that way. I would definitely recommend these shoes to a kitchen pro or some one looking for a clog style casual shoe.

Over the years SFC quality has gone down hill with their prices going up. Finally decided I've had enough, came across these and couldn't be happier. Ordered a full size lower then my regular size, (would've been happier with maybe a half lower, went with a thinner sock then usual) after a 2 day break-in. I don't worry about my feet after a 14hr day. One very happy customer, my feet thank you Keen.

I've been a chef for over 20 years and have tried every work shoe out there. This shoe is simply the best. Never have I had a work shoe that I can't wait to put on!

I am a traveling chef and on my feet a tremendous amount of time throughout the week. In the past 5 years I have tried CFC Doc Martin and Berks. These shoes by far are the most comfortable. They clean up well don't need polish to look sharp and felt great the first time I put them on. I am about 30 days in to them at 60 plus hrs per week. I will definitely purchase again.

A year in rotation at work on cold hard concrete for 10hrs or so 50-60 hours a week and they shrug it off. Feet feel great, they've held up very well. Excellent shoes, capped toes are a real longevity bonus.

I work on my feet all day standing on concrete floors. I am also a big man, and these shoe have taken the back and knee pain away.

I have to wear special inserts in my shoes, due to plantar fasciitis, and they fit well in these shoes. I have to be on my feet for long hours and they are very comfortable and sturdy in the kitchen.

I can't believe how comfortable these clogs are! I have been using Dansko's for years but I got tired of the variation in sizes each time I needed a new pair (I always have used the same size but each pair felt different). These fit true to size and feel like I am walking on marshmallows. Five stars.

Replacing a pair that I bought over 2 years ago--they lasted through about 300 work shifts in a busy urban emergency department before showing some wear. Stable, good support, no staining from betadine or peroxide, easy to clean off stains. Not as flashy as other brands, but really good work shoes.

Comfy and ready to go out of the box. They felt great on and needed no break in period. Great support, weatherproof, everything I wanted for a nurse that works 12 hour days. They are a little unexpectedly clunky - more so than recreational bike shoe I have of the same brand, but nonetheless far better than Dansko's.

I have used many different brands of top brand shoes and these are by far the best. I cant say about how long they hold up but they do not slip, clean easily and look great. The only downside is they are cut very low and it is easy to get water inside of them.
