Customer Reviews KEEN Terradora II Mid WP

I have hard to fit feet: they are narrow and long, with a good-size bunion, Morton's neuroma, pretty bad metatarsal pain, and a wicked hammertoe. Also I'm a true size 11, so "order your next size up" is a challenge. I've been wearing Altras to accommodate the bunion and hammertoe, but the lack of support and flimsy materials has led me to my next hiking shoe. I hike about 10-15 miles/ week, more if I'm backpacking. I ordered the new Altra Tushars, Merrell Moabs and the Keen Terradora II (some of the only hiking shoes that come in a women's 12). The Keen Terradoras are the winner. Lightweight and somewhat narrow, but flexible at the forefoot with adequate toe space. Good cushion throughout but can still feel the trail. I was a bit concerned about the more narrow toebox and my bunion, but I read reviews that the shoes mold to your footshape after a day or two so was willing to give it a go. The insoles that come with the shoe were the best of the set (although I replaced with my own insoles). They are lightweight (lightest of the set by far) and do not drag your legs down. I took these out for a very rocky and steep 6 mile inaugural hike. They performed well. Some initial pain around my bunion eased by about mile 2 as the shoe adjusted. The shoes support my ankles in exactly the right spot, under the ankle bone, securely but not too tight. Traction seems good (even though the tread seems a bit sneaker-like and I wonder how durable it will be on the rocky trails I tend to be on). Overall I am pleased. Took a chance since there are few reviews out there for this one. Will update once I get some mileage on these.

This is the right pair of shoes for me because it meets my many needs for footware. In the fall, I purchased the Terradora Mid-Waterproof shoes in green and I am just wearing them now, but the Terradora II Mid-Waterproof is changed in ways that are great for my needs. The ankle and heel are more padded and stronger to support my pronated ankles. Keen products generally fit me well, though I do remove the innersoles and replace them with my custom orthotics. I also wear a fabric, lace-up ankle brace, which fits well in my right shoe. I love these high-top shoes and may never take them off! Thanks Keen!

I read the reviews and ordered both my usual size and a half size larger (8 and 8.5 respectively). The reviewers were right-- these run small, and the 8.5s fit perfectly.

I have narrow feet and these seemed to fit quite well, though they were short. I would have had to go up half a size if I wanted them. I was concerned about the material they're made from, they just don't seem that durable to me, and not quite worth the price, so I returned them.

I got the blue and black. Keeping the black. I just had the first walk with the dog on rainy slippery park ways and felt very sturdy and my feet kept dry. Love the boots!

You can’t tell from the photos, but this is not a traditional “mid” hiking boot. The shaft rim slopes downwards towards the back of your heel, and it goes so low in the back that it does not encase or cover your ankle. Essentially there’s just an extra bit of material on the front of your foot providing padding around the tongue. This boot does not provide any ankle stability; it’s comparable to a sneaker. As always, Keens provide zero arch support. Bummed that I keep trying their fantastic designs and I can never keep them.

I have long toes but narrow foot otherwise so I need shoes with a wide and more square toe box. Keen's usually work great but these pinched my toes a little. On the other hand the Keen Targhee III Mid Waterproof fit perfect. ASIN:B07T8PSLMS

These were cute but felt narrow and I know my neuroma would not be happy after an all-day hike in these. The tread also felt almost sneaker-like, as a another reviewer mentioned.

I ordered a 71/2 M in this shoe and it fit PERFECTLY! It has a rounded toe so go up a 1/2 size if you decide to order it. I like the fact that this hiking shoe is more like a tennis shoe. it has flexibility and it's totally waterproof. The terrain I'll be using it on is uneven land, some hills and gravel trails. I'm looking forward to taking these out to our property. If you are hiking on more rocky terrain, you might want one of the Keen hiking shoes with a thicker sole.

They're beautiful and fit my foot like a cushy comfy glove. Unfortunately, they so lack support for this low arched overpronator that my ankle rolls inward freely and that translates to guaranteed pain after a rigorous hike. They'd be great for an afternoon at the park, but not for successive 4,000+ altitude gain mountain hikes.

Another disappointed Keens boot....they were too narrow. I've worn Keens for over 20 years and their boots have declined in sizing and quality . Up until recently I always word the same size and they would always fit, but not anymore.

I have never written a review, but feel compelled to do so since finding the right hiking boot is such a challenge. I've had a pair of Merrell Moabs for years, but finally wore them out. I'm 57 and while I love to hike, I am not as hard core as many, so keep that in mind for my review. I'm looking for comfort and GOOD traction/support. I ordered the Keens and took them on a quick 2-hour hike to break them in on what turned out to be a rainy, cold day with some steep and very slippery terrain. They were just what I'd hoped for! My toes stayed warm and my feet stayed dry through numerous deep puddles. The arch support was solid and the traction was excellent. I wear an 8 and often find hiking boots cut off the circulation to my toes no matter how wide or long I go. I ordered the 8.5 and with medium thickness socks, they were great--no issues at all. I am so very pleased with this boot. Off to South America in them soon, so here's hoping they wear well and long.

I read all the reviews before ordering these shoes and most said they run small. I ordered a half size bigger that I normally wear and they fit great.

These are super comfy! I ordered a half size up knowing that keens usually run about a half size smaller and fit perfectly. Only took about a half hour to break in. Haven’t really tested the waterproof but so far so good.

I like that these weren't huge and clunky, but they were a bit stiff, and the toe box was narrower than I hoped. I've tried a few different Keen hiking boots, and these were not as bulky as others, but they were also less comfortable and definitely ran smaller. I wear an 8-8.5, and these were 8.5. They were way smaller than other Keen 8.5s I tried. Maybe if I sized up they would feel better, but I suspect the toe box will still be too narrow for my liking.

These seem to be nice shoes but they were too narrow and that is saying a lot because I have narrow feet.

Nice boots but would definitely order 1 whole size up!

Keen has changed, their quality and sizing is all askew. My usual size is a 7.5, and I usually order an 8 in Keen. Tried these in a 7.5, they were about a half size too long, so going up to an 8 would not help, and they were very narrow. Thank you Zappos for letting me return.

I love these boots, had them for a long time now and still really like them. Wore them to Belize and to Trinidad & Tobago birding - lots of climbing and muddy, slick walking and they keep me sure footed the whole time! I think they’re nice looking as well. One thing that’s super is the weight of the boot is very light and they don’t make my feet hot despite being water resistant.

Great light-weight hiking boot

Among the most comfortable footwear I have ever had!!!!
