Customer Reviews KEEN Utility Dover 8" Insulated Waterproof Boot (Carbon-fiber Toe)

The boots look and feel great. After about 2.5 days of wearing them in the house, i realized they were too small. I up-sized half a size, which is recommended for toe cap boots, but that wasnt enough. Ive returned this pair and will be buying a larger pair as soon as my refund is processed

The boots are truly comfortable. I bought them for my job as a snowmaker on a ski resort in the winter. But right now I use them for landscaping construction. The only negative thing I have to say is they make a squeaky noises every step I take. I am a combat veteran and those squeaky noises really strikes a nerve with me. Besides that, it is a great boot. To be honest if they didnt make noise I would probably get another pair after I destroy these.

wore one time to test if waterproof and it was almost waterproof

These boots last the best of many brands and grip great

Super light weight! I wear them every single day. I work at a farm full time and they are perfect for keeping my feet dry and warm! Looking forward to testing them out in the winter.

Well constructed, comfortable out of the box which is rare for any new boot.

Good boot with plenty of insulation

Bought these boots for working outside in Minnesota during the winter. They are warm and comfortable. So far have not had to test the waterproofing, but based on past experience with Keen I am not worried about it. Every Keen I've had has been high quality and dry inside. Definitely as good as other brands priced higher. They run slightly on the larger side, but that is alright if you wear thick socks.

GREAT BOOTS

Light weight. Very waterproof. Comfortable

Comfortable right out of the box. Waterproof to the top. Definitely a great option for the safety toe without the weight.

Odd fit - toe box . Not what I expected from Keen

Very stiff boots have to put a wrap on my ankle to keep from rubbing it raw hopefully it will get better soon

Been using keens for a few years gardening yard maintenance work. Very comfortable used 4 different from high to low cut boots all some working on 5 now

Durable, comfy and no issues so far. Absolutely recommend!

Great boot. Haven't tried it in winter yet, but I've worn it between 30 and 75 degrees F. My last three boots from other brands all wore out too quick so spent a little extra to get this pair. I didn't even need to break them in. They fit great from day one. I was worried that the insulated boot would be too hot in the summer, but so far I've yet to feel any issues with my feet over heating. I'm an engineer that spends a lot of time at job sites and walking outdoors, often in wooded areas. The safety ratings are a huge plus for me, especially the EH rating (I'm consulting for a power utility). All in all I am extremely happy with my purchase so far. Now it's just time to see how long they will last me.

I worked inside a data center/service work these boots a great fast forward to working outside in the elements of construction not that durable

when i first got these I would have gave them five stars but 7 months later they are falling apart at the stitching and even before that a problem with the insole would make a squeaking sound with every step I took.

Excellent insultation, great fit, great protection. Not much more to ask for from a winter work boot, I would recommend to anyone asking about winter work boots.

The very first day of wearing these boots the eyelet came off. I don't even know what to day after that.

This is my third pair of Keen work boots. The other two are the Cincinnati and San Jose. I got the Dovers because I needed a work boot for cold weather. My feet get cold, particularly on the bottom, from standing on concrete outdoors. These are very comfortable fitting and of good quality as expected from Keen. However I am disappointed by the the lack of insulation on the bottom. The insulation is advertised for temperatures far below the temperatures I work in so I was expecting to be comfortable wearing them into the 20 degree range. The cold comes up through the bottom quickly, so easily that I can feel the cold of the accelerator pedal in my truck coming through the sole. Also, the uppers are quite rugged but the bottom is lacking. You should not be able to feel small textures or half-pea size pebbles through work boots. These provide very little protection on the bottom. I have flip flops that are more protective on the sole. I will not be buying the Dover again. If Keen offered the Cincinnati (6 or 8 inch) in an actually insulated version, that would be the perfect winter boot.

I originally bought these in the uninsulated version and liked them so much I bought the insulated version as well. Ive worn Red wings for the last 15 years No more! I wear them for work and for upland bird hunting and they have held up well over at least 50 miles so far. Warm, dry , supportive and comfortable Im a Keen buyer for life now!

Ive been happy with these boots so far. Took awhile to break in but they are comfortable and warm once they are.

I was deployed to Antarctica for a six month period. 2017 2018. Decided to to buy Keen boots, composite toes , insulation was good for the environment of extreme cold minus 40 degrees /Minus 70 degrees.The only issue that I had was the soles. Walking on ice all day had a effect on the molecular structure. It made them very slippery it was like they were glass. I fell many times because of the soles. Rubber soles didn't change and I had no problem with slipping on the ice.
