Customer Reviews KEEN Brixen Lo

Keen keeps an old timer on solid footing in all seasons!

Seems like they keep making Keena cheaper and cheaper. The seams are already coming apart after two weeks of everyday use. They are cushiony and comfortable but very hot inside. I like how they look like a boot when I have my work pants over them yet are easy to take off and put on.

Great sturdy shoe - runs a bit large to size and hits a little high on the ankle causing a sore spot but they softened up after a while. I ordered 2 pair - one for me and one for my partner. We returned the one for my partner as the irritation on the ankle was too much for her.

Very warm and durable shoe. I change shoes very often from job site to office, so these save me about 15 minutes a day of lacing up boots; however, they are a little looser than I am used to. Very good on a construction site with mud and elements.

Before this I had, and greatly enjoyed the Merrell Jungle Moc. But once they got thoroughly broken in water started seeping in whenever I walked through squishy grass or small sidewalk puddles. I went for these because they're supposed to be "Waterproof" rather than "Water resistant" and I have to walk the dogs regardless of the weather. So far so good. The heel is fairly stiff and I was concerned that as I slid my foot in it would start to bend forwards towards the hole. That hasn't been a problem. The opening was pretty stiff initially, but it's starting to relax, and it's slightly easier to put on every time. I was also concerned by reviewers who suggested they were insulated, which would make them suck in the summer. I don't think I can agree with that description. These aren't insulated, at least not in a meaningful way. They're just not ventilated. If you're trying to decide between the Jungle Moc and this. Think of this as a more heavy-duty variant. The Merrell has a slightly more relaxed feel, but I'm perfectly happy to walk miles in these.

Finally a Keen slip on that fits. This one seems to run a half size big but other than that it's warm, waterproof, and comfortable. I had to send back all other Keens I tried because the sizing was all over the map. Keens quality control seems to be slipping in the last year.

looked and felt wide

Good quality

Expensive error. My size 14 was too big and the size 13 wide are too loose. Can’t return cause I’ve worn them for month. My toes rub and the tips irritated (have hammer toes). The problem is the shoe doesn’t hold the foot snug to the heel and the foot moved in the shoe irritating the toes. Bad expensive shoe, disappointing. Not wearable and not returnable. Don’t buy.

Shoes looked good, kind of stylish, but were too large across the toe area. I want to buy the next size smaller but the site is confusing on reordering and changing just the size. Looks like I'll have to go thru the same complicated ordering process to order another pair, 1 size smaller.

I wear a 12½. Since these are big for 13s I tried some inserts. That helped a bit but now they are a bit uncomfortable. Sizes larger than 12 seem to be all over the board. I have tried on 14s that felt like 12s.

I bought the Keen Brixen Lo because I wanted something like the Merrell Jungle Mocs, but more waterproof and with better tread. Overall I'm pretty happy. They're fairly comfortable. The fit is good. I like the look, and the nubuck is wearing back into more normal looking leather, which is a kind-of nice. 7 weeks in and they're thoroughly broken in but some problems have arisen: 1. My right shoe now squeaks every time my heel comes down. It sounds like a half-broken dog toy with every other step. 2. The "Removable KEEN.Cush PU and memory foam footbed" in the left shoe has been sliding backwards. There's now none of it under the front edge of my toes and it's starting to bunch up in the heel. I'm sure this could be addressed by replacing it with some Dr. Scholl's. 3. The heel of the shoe is still relatively stiff (a good thing) but the soft top of it curls forwards as you slide your foot in and you have to wiggle your foot up and down to move it back up into position every time you put them on. 4. I wear short socks and they get pulled off of my foot almost every time I take the shoes off. When these wear out I'm not sure if I'll buy them again, or go back to the Merrell Jungle Mocs.

I wanted to love these shoes. They look great on, they feel great for the most part. Problem is on the sides where the high side walls rubbed the bone on the outside of both feet. I tried different socks, figured they would break in. Alas, they went back. They just rubbed right under that bone on both legs and left a mark. Bummer.

I love Keen shoes. However, these Keens run large and slip up & down on my heel. They would also cause problems if you have a manual transmission because there isn't enough room to put your foot on the clutch pedal and the brake at the same time. The shoes are extra wide. They are going back also. Just too big a footprint.

This is the second pair of Brixen Lo I have bought. My first pair was very comfortable and durable, but for reasons I don't understand I am not so comfortable in this pair. I still recommend this shoe, though perhaps it is no longer a good fit for me.

Shoes seems like they were comfortable, but as slip-ons they were far too big and wide for my size 12 feet, which are admittedly narrow. 11.5 too small, 12 too big. I was walking right out of the 12s. That said, I liked them. They just didn't fit.

Too tight of fit and the soles were so hard, my heels would slip. Returned.

I really like the looks of the Brixen Lo when it arrived, but the fit was immediatley off. It was between a half and full size too small. My closet is full of shoes this size that fit perfectly; these shoes are not sized right. The soles are also super stiff causing your heel to slip; the even the shoe is too small.

I am a size 14 and the shoe was too large. It is also very heavy.

The slip on design of this shoe was to narrow for my feet. I couldn’t get them on. Well built, good looking, but css as my comment on anything else. We love that we can try them on and any issues send back. Thank you!

Shoe was well made as you expect KEENS to be. I returned this style due to toe box area being way to wide for my preference. Return process was outstanding!!

I ordered these for my father as the man will only wear loafers even in the snow. They simply didn't fit. 11.5, his normal size, was huge so I exchanged for 10.5. 10.5 still too wide and the hell slipped. Too bad, they seemed nice.

The shoes are designed for people with very fat ankles. I say this because the top front of the shoe is very far from the top front of your foot. As you walk, particularly if you using stairs, the front of the shoe will work the top front of your ankle until you have blisters. It only took 2 hours of going around my house for these shoes to become unbearable.

Show was delivered with a defect in the sole on the sole on the left show., causiung my foot to roll when I walked.

These shoes arrived scratched up on top of both shoes. Appears to have been worn. The scratched are deep and don’t rub off.
