Customer Reviews KEEN Utility PTC Dress Oxford (Soft Toe)

I wanted these to work, the issue is that they were to narrow. Keen shoes used to be wider and a wide toe box, these were neither they squeezed my toes. Took a star away for not wide enough.

Fits perfect for me. No break in period feels good right off rip. I work 10 hours days delivering packages and my feet feel great at eos

I originally purchased a size 11 1/2. Usually that would be fine but my toes were touching the front of the shoe. The 1/2 size larger did the trick. Now I’m a happy camper!

These shoes seemed quite comfortable overall. Likely to no fault in their design, I chose a different pair to keep as my new pair of hospital work shoes due to the pressure they placed on the dorsal (superior) aspect of my right foot. This tends to be a problem with shoes in general for me. They seem as though they would be easy to clean.

Strong shoe for me being in the service industry. Good for about a year and half then time for a new pair fabric on inside heel just breaks down. Only down side.

Unlike the loafers of the same style, these lace up version run a bit small. I ware a 9, but these fit like an 8 1/2. Think there designed for a woman's foot.

I wear these shoes daily to FedEx. I walk an average of 8 to 9 miles per day. This is my 3 pair and overall they are great shoes. My only concern is the limited arch support and the side walls busting out . It’s only October and the sides have busted open again. The last pair did the same.

I have bought about 15 pairs of keens over the last 15 years. They are expenive but awesome shoes that last and were always comfortable right out of the box. But I've had to return most of the ones I got in the last few years; they have gotten shorter and, especially, NARROWER. Why? There are so many shoes out there for people with narrow feet. These were the only ones for us people with wide feet. Too bad.

I'm usually an 11.5 but ended up going with a 12 on these just fyi. Immediately these shoes feel like they will last a very long time, sturdy and well put together. They also feel as though they need to be broken in slightly, the tops near the tongue dig into your ankles a bit but I think with time they will soften up. I was talking with a landscaper friend who had a similar pair for 7 years... They feel like that kind of shoe. The style is clean and service oriented, not my favorite but that's the price you pay for a working shoe.

These have been my go-to non-slip work shoes for the past few years. I typically get about a year of use out of them (only having to replace the insole after 2 months and the laces occasionally). This review is for the pair I received on my latest purchase. Unfortunately the latest pair I purchased isn't nearly as comfortable and is cut differently. The leather, including the tongue, is significantly harder. The tongue has less padding. The ankles are cut higher and press into my ankle bones. It's my fault, I assumed they would fit the same as the last 5 pairs.... I wish I had tried them on and returned them for something different. Normally they are the perfect shoe for me... Comfortable, with a wide toebox and great non-slip. The comfort just isn't there this time.

These were my go to shoes for a few years working long days in a kitchen. I'm not sure if over the years the changed the design slightly or not but my size 14 that I ordered last doesn't fit the same as the one I already own. Keen please make a 15.

Keen shoes are the best fitting shoes I have found in a long time. My toes love the spacious toe box. Buying through Zappos was hassle free and the shoes arrived very quickly.

This is my first pair of real "work shoes" after working in food service for over a decade. I used to wear Globe's Chet Thomas IV skate shoes, but they stopped making them, so I've been on the hunt for better things. First thing, these shoes are very comfortable. I can be on my feet all day in them and, if I don't have time to change shoes, continue on to doing chores or errands in them without even noticing my feet. Second, the slip resistance is very effective and I have not so much as felt myself sliding since I've been wearing them. I have almost forgotten the sensation entirely. Third, the water resistance is effective. The first day I wore these, I spilled about half of a cup of 180-degree water right on top of my foot. It splashed right off onto the ground and none of it went into the shoe and my foot was fine. I have very short (usually 7.5) and wide (EE) feet, and these shoes accommodated my foot very well. My only gripes about these are that the heel collar is leather on the outside, but cloth on the inside. This cloth does not hold up and started to show the inner foam after only six months of use. Around eight months, the heel area of the insole started to deteriorate and pieces of it would come off on my socks or when I took off my shoes. There is now less padding there since so much of it has come off. I have had these shoes for almost exactly one year. I may get another pair, but I would want Keen to address these material issues first, especially the heel collar. I can buy a new insole, but I cannot repair that part of the shoe myself, and it broke down faster than I thought was reasonable. I definitely do not regret my purchase, though. Still great shoes for what I put them through.

Comfortable for my feet since I work in the operating room for long hours. The laces do seem to be fraying after only a couple weeks.

These are my second pair of Keen Utility PTC Dress Oxfords. The are comfortable for work and provide good arch support for me. They are loose in the toe box and across the metatarsals which I love with my wide feet! The only problem with this second pair is the leather is QUITE stinky! They smell like horse manure and will take some time to cure. Every time I get into the car it think, what is that smell! I am getting used to it in an open spaces and know this will get better with time. As I said at the beginning of the review these are my second pair and the fit is comfortable. I hope Keen changes the leather provider.

One of the most comfortable, supportive work shoe. I use them for light and medium duty construction work and due to the rubber toe they last longer and are more comfortable than work boots costing much more! I had a sole separation problem with one pair and Zappos replaced them immediately!

My feet no longer hurt. This shoe is kinda heavy, but I am doing a server job, have to stand all day, so I guess this is the right shoe for me.

I like these Keen work shoes a lot. I've been wearing them for a few weeks now. The support is fantastic. The only negative so far is the sizing. They seem to run a bit small. I usually wear a size 14, but these are a tad tight. They have no size 15 available. As long as you don't need a size 14, order a size larger and you'll love these shoes.

These are some great non slip shoes... Wish the price was a little lower but they are definitely worth the money. I tried a cheaper pair of nonslip shoes after this pair and was greatly disappointing.
