Customer Reviews KEEN Utility Detroit Low ESD Soft Toe

These are great shoes. I work in a warehouse and am on my feet all day. These have withstood hours upon hour of walking. I've had them for about little longer than a year and can tell you that they're still in great shape. I'm in Seattle so I had to buy waterproof, no problems there. These were comfortable right out of the box. I'm very impressed with Keen and how they are making footwear. These compelled me to buy some boots for work which are also great so far. You'll notice when you first get them that they just have a good "solid" feel. Highly recommend and will buy again.

My husband has a bunion, and had trouble finding a pair of Keens that would be durable and weatherproof, but have room in the toe. I tried a few Keens, and these were the winners. They provide plenty of room. He said over and over he loves the shoe. He has flat feet, so I would think that means no arch support. We love Keens. This is another reason why! And as always Zappos rocked, including their customer service. We went through two other pairs before we found a winner.

I have worn my green/blk Detroit Low's for a full year now. They are still so comfortable and solid. I'm a 50 yr old non conventional footwear woman with a wide foot, and it's hard to find women's wide, supportive shoes that are NOT too old looking, pink or purple, or built for something other than the mall... I ((loved)) the olive-sage green color so I ordered two pairs. One for me and one for my husband. He has since worn his boots out, so I ordered a third pair of Detroit Low in another color- loves them too. My boots keep my feet and legs aligned so my back/knees don't ache!

This is an excellent pair of shoes. Felt great right out of the box, kept them on all evening. Two negatives, only one color choose and had to reorder a half size down. 12 EE to 11.5 EE. Very roomy shoes.

My 7th pair of Keen shoes. Very comfortable while walking 3 miles, 5 days a week. A little heavy, but the only Keen available in wide size.

I had a lot of trouble finding comfortable (wide) shoes for my oily work environment (hydraulic oil disintegrates most shoes). Most had steel toes, which are, apparently not wide even if the shoes are. These Keens came in and were comfortable from the start. I added gel arch supports and now they are pure bliss. Highly recommended. Only caveat is, the very aggressive tread catches on the pedals of my truck if I'm not careful.

These are the best work shoes I've ever owned. I would highly recommend them to anyone in the automotive or towing fields.

I'd purchased 2 pairs of this shoe through another company, and then saw that Zappos carried the shoe in a wide size, so I ordered a third pair due to the even wider fit choice (Keens run wide in a medium fit). My husband had a very thick, wide foot and the wide size was absolutely perfect in fit for him. He was delighted...no rubpoints either. He is so hard to fit and these shoes have shown to be extremely comfortable from the get-go. We both love them. Keens have proven that they are very durable in the years since I began purchasing them. The only negative we found was that this particular shoe while it is excellent for walking in snow and on ice - has a great tread...does conduct the cold through the sole and make your foot cold after a few minutes. I believe that can be thwarted with a felt liner insole. Love this shoe - super comfortable from the first time we both put them on, and we have big ol' wide feet!

Excellent shoe! My husband wore these right out of the box and there was no break in period at all. They were comfortable from the get go.

My favorite Keens so far! I wear nothing but Keen shoes all day, every day and these are the best! I am brutal on my shoes. These are more comfortable, more breathable, and even lighter. What could be better? Will be ordering a backup pair soon.

Bought these shoes as replacement for Tevas which were showing wear (after two years). Normally wear a size 10.5 but went with a 10 as felt too loose in width and toe in 10.5. A good looking shoe and requires little break-in. Feel a good buy for the money. Have had them for a month and wear daily.

I have two pairs and absolutely love them. They are almost a year old and holing up better than any shoe I have ever owned.

Bought this shoe to wear at work landscaping. So far it has remained waterproof through some light to moderate rain. The shoe looks great and feels great, after a wear in period.

A little on the heavy side. Not much arch support, maybe that is just compared to my other shoes. They do not feel uncomfortable after a full day on my feet.

Zappos was terrific in filling my order and also in exchanging the item for a different size. No complaints there. The Keen shoes came in the size I ordered, but were way too small. Perhaps they were mislabeled in the factory. I had to order a full size larger than my usual size and those shoes are working out for me. Either both pairs were incorrectly marked or perhaps Keen's sizing is way off the mark. At any rate, the second pair is working out well for me. Good thick soles with great treads, solid construction, and reasonably comfortable.

I like these shoes a lot. The toes are not as sporty as the more casual Keens, but they are broad enough to finally spread out and rest naturally on the floor of the shoe. I have not had them six months yet, but so far they seem like they will wear well trampling over the cement floor of where I work. My orthotics fit pretty well also.

True to size. Very comfortable. A bit heavy and warm but excellent overall. Very sturdy and rugged. I've had very good performance and long life from several similar Keen shoes. For some reason these squeak when I walk. Minor issue though.

I found shoes in a 15EE, how can I complain? This is my 7th pair of Keens. All others were D width so it's nice to finally get wide. They fit well, a little wide at the heel, but they feel good on my feet and are very supportive, and at 320lbs., I need the support.

I have had these shoes for a month working 13 hour days on my feet and it still doesn't feel like they're broke in but they are holding up better than expected.

Ugly but effective. Finally, a Keen wide shoe line. So, the removable shoe liner could have more support. It could use a better color scheme. Nice toe bumper. A bit long in length - I'm normally 8.5 EE but ordered 8 wide in the Detroit and it fits fine. The best thing, other than wide sizing, is the ESD. It really dissipates some of the static charge.

It’s not what I expected. Didn’t hold up as good as I thought it would for the price.

a bit narrow and short. style a bit odd. color fair.

Ordered size 12, my usual size but my toes of my left foot hit the inside front of the shoe. Returned them to Zappos.

I've worn Keen shoes - including this model - for over 10 years and have always worn a size 11. Ordered this shoe in size 11 and it was just over 1/2 size too large - which shocked me since I've got 3 other pairs of Keens in my weekly "rotation". There must have been something wrong with how these were labeled. Just ordered a pair of 10.5.

Been using Keen shoes for years. Last 2 pairs of Keens I ordered had flaws on the shoe. After a couple of weeks of use. The bottom of the shoe started coming apart. You could tell they didn't use enough glue. I think their quality control is slacking. Zappos wad great on my return. And I'm going back to Salomon. No more Keens for me until they fix this flaw. I really like Keen shoes. So I'm kind of bummed.
