Customer Reviews KEEN Elsa III Sneaker

cute, but felt floppy while walking. for $80, i would love for the plaid pattern to match on both toe areas.

I like these, and they fit well after I got rid of the insole (too thick) and substituted a thinner insole I got in the drugstore. The heel is a little loose, but otherwise they are fine.

I own a few pairs of keens and it is pretty typical for them to run wide, this shoe is no exception. Would prob be better with an orthotic? Not very comfortable, cute shoe but they have to go back.

These are comfy but run small. I love the look.

Cute shoes but so wide -even laced up, they slipped off my foot.

I've been looking for a sneaker like this for a while. While these are the best fitting and quality ones I've seen, I didn't LOVE them so I decided to return them. Nicely made, true to size, but they felt heavy.

These sneakers are so cute! I usually wear a 10.5 and ordered a 9.5 and they fit perfect. Very comfortable..but the inside seams by the tongue and lace holes rubbed my feet. Would possibly be okay w/ socks, but felt I needed to return them since they were irritating on the 1st try

SUPER cute shoe with a very comfortable insert, however I have to remove the original insert to put in my custom inserts...when doing that you're left with a very hard bottom, so I ended up using an insert from a pair of old running shoes (for added cushion) + my custom inserts = good feel! They are a little snug for my liking, but I'm keeping them because they're cute and fit way better than the Converse shoes (too narrow).

I SO wanted to love these shoes but both my recommended size and one size up were too tight over the top of my toes. The width in the toe area was fine but the height of the toe box was too tight and made my toes numb. I have several pairs of Keens but none in the casual sneaker but I would really like to have a fun pair so if anyone can suggest a brand with a higher toe box, please let me know!

As much as I wanted to keep these shoes, I had to return them. The right shoe was every so slightly shorter than the left, but enough to make a difference. I checked the size labels and they were the same, so maybe this was just a one-off. Really cute shoes, loved the patchwork print. I might reorder and see if the next pair have the same discrepancy.

These were super cute and I was excited to receive them. I ended up returning them because when I tried them on, they were wider than expected in the forward part of the shoe. When I tightened my laces it created a ripple in the material that was visible and uncomfortable. The ripple make it look like the shoe was too big in width. They were sized appropriate for the length of the shoe.

Very comfortable and just enough support to wear right out of the box. Love the wide toe box. I bought the checked ones and they are supper cute.

I love these shoes and own several pairs in different colors. I have replaced my black pair happily after a few years of wear. They held up wonderfully. The gray pair, unfortunately has developed a rip in the toe area after less than a year. And they are not worn daily, maybe a few times a week. I'm disappointed in the quality...

I had too return these because my narrow heels slipped out the back, even with socks. The toe box was roomy as well. I had wanted a casual look, but nicer than regular tennis shoes. Unfortunately the fit didn't work out.

I bought the seemingly identical shoe earlier this year - the Elsa II. I was reasonably happy with that shoe, missing the iconic Coronado. But, the Elsa III? The toe box is flattened, the tongue does not extend over the eyelets (ouch - did not recognize that until out walking so no return in my future!), and the arch is placed (slightly) further back. Total failure for me, maybe not for you.

Super cute - but no arch support. I ordered these based on another review that said there was excellent arch support. Trust me when I say that is not the case. I really wanted to like them, but they had to go back.

These would be adorable if it weren’t for the bright white toe bumper. The shape is odd and looks out of place on the wintry styles. Also ran short for both my daughter and myself, sent back.

These shoes are super cute and the fabric is unique. I was absolutely wrong in thinking they would be more comfortable as I wore them. The longer I wore them the first day the more I regretted the purchase. They are so stiff and have very little padding around the foot. I wish I had worn them around the house more first, but my other Keens are comfortable I never dreamed these wouldn’t be. Unfortunately, now I cannot return them, maybe I can donate or give them away. I don’t think I will wear the much.

High on style, but I found the fit odd. It was suggested that I get an 8, even though I normally wear a 7.5. So they arrived and they were too big. I didn't re-order smaller because I found the width (medium B) much too wide. It has a very rounded toe give gives a lot of room, I think too much room. Also, there is no arch support. So I returned them

These shoes are so cute, but unfortunately they felt stiff and heavy. They are going back.

Cute sneaker. However, I ordered an 8 and I found the toe box, because it is so rounded to be too big on me. I'm considering trying the 7.5, but I'm still concerned about how wide the toe area is.

I wanted to love this shoe. I bought it in the three sizes closest to the one I wear. I'm usually 8.5, so I got 8, 8.5 and 9...but my big toe hit the top of the shoe in both the 8 and the 8.5 and the 9 bent in a wierd, unnatural place each step I took...plus there was absolutely no arch support. It felt like there was a high spot at the back of the heel that slumped into a valley that hit its low point at my arch.

I love keen shoes. They are made perfectly for my wide boxy foot without being a wide size. These shoes are cool but have a raw edge around the tongue which I find just a bit cheesy.

Maybe I’m between sizes in this shoe. I ordered an 8 and an 8 1/2. Neither worked. I’m usually an 8, but I thought the 8 1/2 would give me a little extra room in the width of the toe box. They were too long and felt a bit clownish. Toes felt too crowded in the 8. Canvas felt a little stiff on my little toes. Otherwise they looked cute.

I found these shoes to not be as comfortable as last Year's model and wound up returning them. The Arch support didn't seem to be as good and the tongue of the shoe rubbed against my foot. Too bad. I Love all of the plaid flannel colors.
