Customer Reviews KEEN Utility PTC Dress Oxford (Soft Toe)

This shoe is part of my fleet of Keen's. I needed a new 'dressy' everyday shoe that would last all day. these are great.

Probably not the best looking shoe out there but definitely the most supportive and comfortable! My right foot is a wreck with 6 surgeries and counting but I can stand and teach on a faux granite floor all day and still be civil at the end. Highly recommend!

Weird story with these shoes: I bought a pair specifically because I was starting work as a mailman and need a great walking shoe. The Keen Utility did not disappoint. However, after about three weeks I noticed that the right shoe was separating from the sole. In another week the sole was very noticeably coming off. I called Zappos and they were awesome, sent me a brand new pair no questions asked. Sadly, the same thing happened in another few weeks. Still, I have to say that I find these shoes to be so comfortable that I kept the second pair and I wear them even though the sole is once again half off of the shoe. I plan to use some shoe glue when it gets to the point when that is necessary. So, I give this shoe my highest recommendation despite the obvious flaw in durability. Go figure. Three stars on style because all Keens make me feel like a munchkin or something.

I work in a restaurant, and want a comfortable, non slip shoe for daily wear, and these shoes fit the bill. They may not be the most stylish, but they do carry a nicer shine than Keen's Service Shoe, which I wore prior to this pair. After I bought mine, many of my co-workers have purchased same shoe, and all are happy with their purchase. They provide great traction on wet tile floors, remain comfortable through as entire shift, and clean up easily. As a plus, there is no need to buy additional inserts, as the ones provided with this shoe are fantastic. I have been in the business many years, and highly recommend these shoes.

14+ years working in a machine shop. on my feet all day. oil on the floors constantly. I have tried every imaginable oil/slip resistant shoe on the market from junk to an expensive junk. These shoes are the first pair that have everything I've been looking for in a work shoe. they are light, flexible, great support,no slipping at all. great right out of the box! Finally.

I work in a jail and had previously worn Danner Boots everyday to work. I am on my feet for about 10 hours a day on a concrete floor and my heels were beginning to really hurt after 2 years of the boots. I wear Keens when I'm not working so I looked around and found these utility shoes. These shoes are worth every penny you spend. It feels like I'm walking on clouds all day long. Never had any discomfort whatsoever from these shoes. The other great feature is the slip resistance. I can run across a wet floor with no issues at all. I've had them about a year, and they are still in great shape. I'm thinking I'll get about another 6 months to a year out of these, which is pretty good for how much I wear them. I think I might get two next time so I have a pair to wear when I'm off work. Out of all the shoes and all the Keens I've owned these are by far the most comfortable.

This is now my second pair of these shoes because they are perfect for my work as a automotive technician. I'm on my feet all day, even in snowy weather for roadside services and they have never let me down, always stayed warm and dry. I will continue to buy these as long as they are made. Note: the heel box does not have any padding but is constructed/formed well, I don't miss it; but some might find exception.

I wore these shoes 10 hours a day, 6 days a week, for 8 months doing kitchen work. Loved them. They have a great no slip sole, I never had any foot fatigue and they are slightly waterproof so that small spills just wicked right off. After 8 months they were still in great shape. Unfortunately, I was unable to pack them when i left my job. Now that I'm headed back to kitchen work, I'm picking up a second pair.

I purchased these for my son who is a professional chef. I purchased the same shoes a year ago and he wanted a new pair. He is on his feet all day and claims that these are the best work shoes that he has ever owned.

This is all I use for work, and I'm on my feet alot and wear uniform, and this is the only "kind of acceptable" look that works for me. So comfortable, form fitting to the feet, amazing quality, wear them everyday and I get them once a year.

I love Keen shoes and have purchased about 5 pairs from Zappos. These are no exception; they're comfortable, sturdy, and offer plenty of support. I have really flat feet so I need a lot of arch support as I am on my feet for long periods at work in restaurants, and these Keens are all that I could ask for. I wear them when I 'm not working, too; they look good and are low-maintenance.

Overall look is not bad. The shoe performance is amazing. Working in a kitchen with grease and wet floors. I do not worry about slipping. They have a great grip. The design makes walking easier than some of shoes. I have knee and ankle problems but these make it easier to work on. Love them!

Another fantastic shoe by Keen. This is my second pair of this shoe in three years. The first shoe worked well as a comfortable duty shoe that was both comfortable and stylish.

Very comfortable shoes! When I first saw them I thought they would be too wide but they are perfect.

I bought these shoes for my husband and he is simply pleased with the quality, style and comfort!

These shoes are great! I have been having a little trouble with Plantar Fasiitis and these shoes seem to help. They offer enough support without having super high arches that can aggravate the Plantar Fasiitis. They have nice strong soles and firm feel yet the toe box is plenty big enough. I hate having my toes crammed in. I also like the toe because I kneel a fair amount for my job (computer tech) and these do not scuff.

I have been in search of a shoe like these for over 2 years. These shoes are great for comfort, support and very slip resistant. I have trouble with most shoes because I have Plantar Fasciitis at a very incurable level. These shoes have been awesome in helping me to slowly heal this problem. I am ordering a second pair to have when these wear out. I have some Keen hiking shoes that fit the same way so a very reliable brand!

The size and fit were just as ai expected. These are my second pair, because the first pair needed replacing after many yeas of use. When this pair wears out, in many years to come, I would buy another pair.
