Customer Reviews KEEN Elsa Sneaker

I always recommend Keen shoes, but not this one!! Failed on many points. First, the tongue touches my ankle and it has zig zag stitching in its edge. Afraid it will rub it raw! Also, it's a stiff shoe and presses hard at the base of my big toe when I walk. Heavy for a Keen too. Don't see how anyone would like this shoe (except to look at). Sorry Keen

I have been trying for a long time to find more black Keen Coronados to replace my old ones, but it seems they stopped making them (in black). I was so excited Keen finally released what appeared to be a similar enough replacement, but was so disappointed. The Keen Coronado was so nice and roomy. Its replacement, the Elsa, feels so narrow, less-cushioned, and less supportive. (I am confident the change is in what Keen calls a size 6, and not in the actual size of my feet. In the interest of science, I checked to confirm!) I wish I'd returned these, but I wanted to give them a chance. They are cute, but so uncomfortable. Not at all what I'd come to expect from Keen shoes.

These are comfortable and cute! As with most Keens for me, I go up half a size and they fit perfectly. I have average width feet and these feel great. I do wear them with socks, and have had no blisters.

This shoe is very cute and I love the color (greenish) with the white toe cap. I am returning the shoe primarily because I am an older person and I think the shoe looks "too young" for me. I would recommend this shoe for people who aren't senior citizens.

I love these shoes, this is the fourth pair I have bought, all different colors. I have problems with my feet and need really good arch support and these shoes deliver. I bought my first pair about four years ago and have not gotten different brand since. I can wear them all day walking and my feet feel great. When you first get them you need to break them in a bit and then they will be fine. They look cute too.

My first Keen Elsa Sneaker. I've had mine for nearly a year now and they have become my go-to sneakers. They needed a bit of break-in time and, while I didn't think they offered much support when I first tried them on, I was pleasantly surprised to find that after extended wear, my feet are happy to be in them. I have heel spurs and plantar fasciitis and these have not disappointed me on support. I'm not a big fan of the large white striped toe bumper on the front of each shoe (my reason for the 3 star rating on style) but I've noticed that Keen has scaled this down in size with the Keen Elsa Sneaker III (and, yes, I've already ordered a pair of those since I love these so much).

They're a little snug but overall pretty comfy. Love the style.

Great color, true to photo, good season transition color. Moderate arch support, perfect for casual office day or weekend get aways.

Love it!

These are so cute. A bit of a flashback to my teenage beach days. With the rubber toe front. Great color.. will work for late winter with jeans and will bring a bit of umph to spring outfits. Medium arch support. I like that there is no leather used.

Keen is such a great brand! Plus the toe box is a little wider than other brands with similar styles- it’s just more comfortable

I typically wear an 8 in all shoes but am always a half size larger in Keen's. I wear orthotics which fit on top of the inner sole that comes with these sneakers. Very comfortable right from the start.

Love the Keen’s for the wide toe box. Always comfortable and roomy. Also, they look great!

The bottoms are great- non-skid/no slip. Felt good on the feet, actual support that my feet crave

Felt a little stiff at first but I walked around in them all day without my feet or knees hurting.

Love these shoes in this style. I am a fan of Keen in many styles and love finding a canvas casual "NON" athletic shoe. Comfortable out of the box, ordered another pair in different color 2 days later. Would buy again, for sure.

Love the look of the sneakers. I have only worn them in the house so far but cute and I ordered a 1/2 size up knowing I wwould wear with socks.

Amazingly comfortable. Very cute. A little bulky but I get lots of compliments on them and they feel great on my feet.

Love!

At first thought they felt big. But, then, I wore them around the house and they seemed to mold around my foot. Very happy with them. I have pronation and I didn’t have to put my inserts in for comfort. May buy another pair in a different color.

I already had a pair of Keen sneakers in beige (with lace), but needed a pair in black. Fit perfectly, quite comfy and great price. Love 'em!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! Finally... finally. A "sneaker" that is comfortable with some arch support! Thank you! Thank you... Converse... goodbye forEVER!

Love the look, runs a bit long. Am returning only because one seam hits my bunion.

10.5 size fit perfectly. Plenty shoe makers don't carry 10.5's, only 10 or 11. Thank you Keen. Inside of shoe is well-constructed. Comfortable, round toe box. The small bunion on big toe didn't even complain! Will add more arch support. Inside lined with canvas fabric too, giving even a canvas sneaker a sturdy feel. Nice thick sole. Fabric is a bit stiff, but I'm sure it'll soften with wear. And this sneaker is verrry cute!!!

Simply put. I love these shoes
