Customer Reviews KEEN Elsa III Sneaker

Love my Keens. Zappos in great. Have bought several keen shoes and they always fit great live the color selection These look cute with my casual clothing. ??

Keen always comes through! Great sneaker, very comfortable. I usually take a size 9. Needed an 8.5 with this one. Highly recommend.

When looking for a casual sneaker, I always look for Keens. This particular new style canvas Keen sneaker is cute and comfy. I have wide feet and these shoes fit just fine right out of the box.

Really cute sneaker with more support than average. I thought they ran 1/2 size larger. I ordered a size 9, and had to return for an 8 1/2.

Love love love these!! They fit great and comfortable right away! I wore them all day! I live in the city so lots of walking and they felt and looked great! Excited to bring these on my Paris trip!

Very comfy, but the white is really cream or linen-colored. I returned them because I'm looking for true white canvas sneakers.

The gray is a nice darker gray. Super comfy sneaker!

Love these shoes! Very comfortable out of the box...I did order a half size up based on another review and they fit perfect..Thank you Zappos for the fast shipping!

hard to go wrong with keens!!!!

After mourning the of the Coronado being discontinued for several years, I am thankful for the Elsa III. I have two pairs of Elsa II which replaced my beloved Coronado, but never did get used to them and never like the clunkier style. The Elsa III are more in line with the Coronado (not exact, but close) and they are as comfortable as them as well. I was able to put them on right out of the box and walk 2-3 miles without having to use custom inserts. I purchased two pairs (Brindle and Gray) and are so happy Keen redesigned the shoe.

Fit and feel are typical Keen quality (which I love) but these sneakers are hot. I'm in the deep south and find them to be just too hot, even in winter with lightweight socks. It's a shame b/c they look and fit great.

Super cute, but no support... sent back. Felt like converse to me. Not the usual keen feeling shoe.

Adorable but run long- I fit between a 6-1/2 wide & 7 medium. The 7 medium was super long so had to exchange... thanks for your policy, Zappos. I hope the 6-1/2 medium works since no "wide" option. Really cute and comfy. Wish Keen offered WIDE sizes, and hope Keen increases the ARCH SUPPORT, would knock it out of the park!!

This is a fun casual shoe. I get so many compliments when I wear them.

These shoes were very comfortable. They have a very wide toe box, which is good for comfort, but I thought they didn't look quite right on my feet. I ended up returning them.

Nice looking shoes in the color Monk's Robe. Moderately comfortable, very little arch support, a bit stiff /sturdy in the sole. I'm keeping them.

These are cute sneakers, love the rounded toe. They're more of a cream color, not white. I have a wide foot and fairly high arches and the top of the tongue on the left side rubbed uncomfortably so I can't wear them for long unfortunately, not a fault of the shoe or construction. I got lots of compliments and just wish they were more comfortable.

Very cute shoe. I love the style, but I really wanted a shoe I could wear all year. This was a wool covered shoe and would be too warm for summer.

Very cute, very comfortable sneaker. Quality you'd expect from Keen. I usually wear an 8 or 8.5 in most shoes; have ordered 8.5 with Keen before, which is what I ordered for the Elsa III and that fit just right.

These shoes are for a wider foot. I have a narrow foot & my foot is swimming around and feels sloppy. If you have a wide foot then these would be really cute. I have to say the only other thing would be that the tongue comes back really far. I think though that after breaking them in that might not be an issue. There is minimal arch support but there is some so I didn't want to mark it as "none."

I bought the checkerboard pattern in a 9 (that was all they had at the time) and a white pair in an 8.5 (my normal size). I ended up keeping both pairs. To be honest, they fit about the same. I love these shoes, however there is something about they way the crease created when you flex your foot while walking that is rubbing against my bunions. I can't figure out where it is. The inside feels smooth, so I don't know. I put band-aids on both bunions when I wear them and I move on. I would have given this shoe 5 stars, but for this somethin' somethin' that irritates the bunions. ALSO....be aware that you will need true no-show socks with this shoe if you plan on wearing socks and don't want your socks to shoe. They are cut considerably lower than an athletic shoe. Even my no-show Balega socks are fully visible and too high for this shoe. I found that the Bombas no show work well and are good socks that stay on my foot.

From the picture on the website I thought this pair of shoes would be a pinkish gray and instead they are more burlap in color. I am disappointed. Will be returning them

The fit was good I have more room in the toe area then I’m used to, but a smaller size would be too small. I’m happy with them.

I was looking for a cute comfort shoe and kept coming back to these. Finally purchased a 7.5 (I’m in btwn 7.5 and 8 for closed-toe shoes), and my toes were at the end, so I reordered the 8s. The 8s feel just a tad too big, but they’re still comfortable. The canvas was a little stiff around the ankle, but loosened after one wear. Shoes weren’t heavy or bulky, and they have nice flex.

These are really cute and I love the colors on them. They are a little uncomfortable and stiff. I’m hoping they break in somehow.
