Customer Reviews KEEN Terradora Waterproof

I love this shoe! I hesitated to buy this one based on reviews but they fit me perfectly..

LOVE these! About to purchase a second pair. I've used them for all day city walking, biking, and light hiking. (I would not, however, call them 'hiking shoes' anymore than a good pair of sneakers.) The thing that sets them apart is the breathability of the uppers. It makes them a great crossover shoe for me. Also, I have to give huge kudos to the design team that's responsible for the color combos!!!! My first pair was the Bungee Cord/Malachite and I'm now torn between Astral Aura/Liberty and Rododendren/Marsala.

I love Keen shoes for the generous toe box and sturdy soles. Sadly, I didn't even try these on because my first reaction was they were so unattractive! I have hard-to-fit feet so I'm not usually that picky but these are going back. I'm going to order regular athletic shoes instead. Thanks, Zappos!

Cute shoe. Stylish.

NOT typical Keen fit. Much smaller toebox. I liked them for looks, cushioning, but cant wear them. Bought Presidio instead.

I have been a long time Keen's fan. So when getting ready for a trip to Ireland, I began to look for a pair waterproof boots or shoes. In looking at my choices, I decided on the Terradora. These were a perfect choice. The Terradora held up to the damp Irish weather. They were comfortable on these days I walked 8 - 10 miles and on the days I explored towns and was walking in and out of shops. The Terradoras never felt clunky. Great shoes for light hiking or walking.

These are very comfortable out of the box. I've had a hard time finding comfortable shoes because of plantar fasciitis and two foot surgeries. I have a narrow foot, but while these have plenty of room in the toe box, they are snug enough around the rest of the foot and ankle so that my foot doesn't float around in them as I have had happen in the past with other tie-up shoes that were not narrow. I also have very high arches, and while the arch support in these is not sufficient for me, my custom orthotics fit in them with no problem. These are true to size. I wear a size 8, and the 8 fit me well. I haven't taken them out to test their water resistance, but I am very pleased with the comfort, plus they look awesome.

This shoe runs large. I typically take a size 9.5 in a running shoe or a hiking shoe/boot. I take a size 9 in this shoe so I recommend sizing down by 1/2 of a size. It is very comfortable right out of the box. This shoe does not look bulky. It is incredibly comfortable for being a goretex waterproof shoe. I wear custom orthotics and this shoe has a removable foot bed, my orthotics fit perfectly.

Out of the box, these have decent flexibility and a sporty look, but not enough arch support for my liking as I was looking to wear them on the pool deck - timing for 3+ hours at a time. They are true to width, but my feet lean wide through the ball, so they was some minor constriction there as well. I did not test the waterproof capability, but they do still seem fairly breathable which is nice.

Really really really wanted to love these shoes - they come in great colors, are super functional because they are waterproof, and I basically trolled the internet for ALL of the reviews before purchasing. i usually really like keens, but these unfortunately did not have sufficient arch support for me. I overpronate, and keen usually doesn't give me that many problems, but I found myself with foot pain after just a little bit of walking around in the house with these shoes, which was very sad!

Love these shoes - perfect light look for the slimmer foot. They have a zebra stripey fabric which is cute except that the left foot had obvious wide stripes and the right foot had narrow stripes - not a matched pair.

I ordered these to compare to the Merrell Capra Bolt Waterproof and the Merrells won by flying colors. These Keens do not have the supportive arch that I need and I also found that the toe box is very shallow (and my forefoot is quite thin due to loss of fat pad underneath). So why are Keens making their toe boxes so shallow on women's shoes? These might make great hikers but they just felt kind of flat-footed to me -- no heel to toe rolling motion. I also preferred the Merrells because they are completely lined with a warm insulating material. I can see that these Keens would be a good weight for summer hiking, but I really want shoes for winter trekking.

I wish had had returned these after I tried them on the first time, but I’m loyal to Keen (and Merrell) so thought I’d give them a try. Unfortunately the tongues of these shoes are way larger than normal as you can see from the photo. I thought I could get used to them, but they are just uncomfortable.

These shoes were narrow across the top of my feet. The shoe laces were very short, so I could not loosen up the shoe to try to accommodate the narrowness. I was very disappointed. I have bought several pairs of Keen shoes in the past because they are a little bit wider and fit my feet perfectly. Not these shoes. They killed my feet!

I really wanted to love this shoe! It was exactly what I was looking for. Fit was good but shoe was a little stiff, the total deal breaker for me was the tongue!!! It was so big, hard and overstuffed! When you put the shoes on it poked you in the legs...and I have very thin legs! Loved the shoe, couldn’t stand the tongue, ruined it for me. I ended up keeping the Ecco walking sneaker...soooo soft and comfortable. Thanks Zappos for making things so easy with purchasing and returning!

This shoe was very comfortable. However, in less than a year, the shoe developed tears in the fabric where the toe box begins and are no longer waterproof, to say the least.

The toe box is not what I expected based on other Keen footwear I have and love. Toes felt too cramped and the top of shoe to toes is wedge-like and uncomfortable. I also developed double blisters on both heels after wearing for two hours - this is because the shoe doesn't fit well and there is a seam on the inside heel which rubs as you walk. Very Very disappointed and wish i could return for a refund.

I have had 4 pairs of this shoe in various colors. The first two lasted about a year. The last two pairs only last a couple months before they started to wear out and had to be replaced. I am very sad because I love Keens for many different reasons. They are very comfy, but I can’t replace them every 3 months. Trying a different brand of shoe now. ?

I have narrow feet and ordered my size and they were true to size I found, and to me, fit like a typical regular width shoe. The problem was, as some have mentioned, the part of the shoe that creases where one's foot bends while walking, the material is too rigid so that crease digs deep into the foot and is very uncomfortable. All I had to do was walk across my living room and I could feel that. Very sad, I love the styling and the colors and it's exactly what I needed for constantly rainy NYC and living near the park, a waterproof sneaker I can wear rain or shine, sidewalk or trails. But it's just horrifically uncomfortable and I would not have been able to tolerate one day in them. For some reason it is really difficult to find a good waterproof sneaker. Merrell's shoes' soles are too thick and cushy with too much of a rise in the heel and they're not stable enough, they give me back pain from my body having to work too hard for stability. These didn't work for the aforementioned reason, but I liked the sole and the fit otherwise very much, so if these are re-styled to fix the bad, stiff fabric and material used on them I'd try them again. But make them durable, I find the reports that, on top of being too stiff, the fabric tears easily, just ridiculous. Especially for the price.

I really liked the appearance of these shoes. I was looking for a waterproof hiking shoe that didn't appear as bulky as other hiking shoes. However, after purchasing the second pair of these shoes, I have decided to return them and buy other waterproof hiking shoes because both pairs of Keen's Terradora Waterproof shoes had a "crinkling" sound after wearing one or 2 times.

I am a fine gardener/horticulturist and wanted a sneaker that was rugged but not bulky. I really liked the look of these and ordered them in the bungee/malachite color. I wore them around the house for a few days because I have experienced horrible blisters with another pair of keens. These were very comfortable and didn't give me any blisters. After about 2 months of light wear they developed holes on both shoes in the same spot! (My work is split about half in the office and half in the field - and when I am outside I am just walking on flat ground) I was super disappointed with the price I had paid and how quickly they deteriorated. Zappos customer service was extremely accommodating and gave me a full refund. I really wanted to like these shoes but they don't seem to last.

Disappointing! Absolutely no arch support. Additionally, I have a narrow foot and these were snug even with widening the strings. I wear the Targee II daily, and these dont even come close. Can not recommend, and I would give zero stars if able.

These shoes were my best friends on a trip to the Galapagos Islands. They look enough like tennis shoes to be worn on the plane, but provided excellent grip and comfort on difficult terrain. I have a neuroma on my right foot that can be very painful if it is compressed, and I found that with the laces loosened, there was plenty of room in the toe box, even with thick hiking socks. Very happy with my purchase.

Shoe fit well. Usually wear a size 9, and that’s the size I wear in this shoe. Shoe is very lightweight perfect for walking.

I like Keens for the wider toe box, stability and comfort. Granted these shoes are narrower than my other Keens, but the fit was still good for me. I like them because they keep my ankles where they are suppose to be when walking. Thought the color and style were different and went well with my jeans (got the blue/purple). Have worn in the rain and feet dry.
