Customer Reviews KEEN Utility San Jose 6" Soft Toe

Love them!

I purchased these boots because the claim is that they offer a wide toe box. Not true. Ive avoided tight shoes my whole life and my feet bones are naturally spread which allows me to walk barefoot comfortably. I need a work boot as im a landscaper/home remodeler and unfortunately, these wont work. Ive returned them. They are pretty tho. :)

I ended up keeping them and buying insoles for brand new shoes. For the price I thought they would feel better.

I am outside on my feet all day working on my horse farm in New Hampshire. I have tried dozens of pairs of boots and this is the first pair that are comfortable all day long. The square toe box allows my toes to move, keeping them warm without heavy socks. I am thinking of buying a second pair in case you change this boot in any way in the future.

These boots have been my favorite. They are lightweight, wide toe box, little to no break in period. As a Construction Safety Manager I am on my feet much of the day and walking more than 10,000 steps a day in a variety of surfaces, such as concrete, rock, mud. I prefer these boots over my sneakers. Unfortunately the sole of the boot wears quickly. The first layer of the sole in the toe area separated within 6 months and the heel area of the sole had already worn off. With the boots being under warranty keen had no problem replacing them. Customer service was excellent and I have purchased two more pairs because they are that comfortable.

Ive been eyeing this boot for a while and couldnt be more pleased! Actually more comfortable than expected, and stayed comfortable my whole work day on concrete floors.

I like the look and durability of these boots a lot! They are pretty comfortable after breaking them in for a few days, though I find that my toes hit in the very front and that hurt the first few times I wore them. Its getting better with wear though. I would suggest sizing up a half size. I walk a lot so I was hoping for support and comfort and I feel were getting there the more I break them in and wear them!

Fits great looks great, love the wide!

I cannot give enough stars for these boots! They are absolutely the most comfortable boots Ive purchased in a long long time! I dont even rush to take them off after my shift! My feet dont hurt and Im not as fatigued at the end of the day! Snug fit around the ankle and toe area isnt cramped. Good womens work boots are a hard find! KEEN has a new customer!!!

I wish the insoles were softer.

These are the most comfortable boots! They broke in quickly and feel like I have been wearing them for months even though it's only been 3 weeks. The leather softened up nicely after just a couple days. Plenty of toe room to wear heavier socks as the weather cools.

Great comfort out of the box. Nice looking and not too bulky

A recent job transitoon moved me from wearing running shoes on hardwood all day to walking/standing all day on tile and concrete. These boots have saved my feet and my legs are so much happier at the end of the day. 10/10 recommend!

Great boot, provides a professional , polished look. Not heavy, should break-in nicely.

I had a difficult time finding a work boot in my size anywhere else online, but I'm glad because Keen is great! Love the quality and you can just tell they're well-made.

I am a short man with a narrow heel and a wide toe so I usually buy size 8 womens boots. The Keen womens San Hose unlined soft toe boot is the ONLY boot I have found that fits my foot so farwithout spending several hundred dollars on custom boots. It is comfortable to work construction in. I do AC work in Texas and its too hot to wear waterproof boots and I need extreme toe box flex for squatting down and crawling through attics so for that they are great. Ive worn three pairs now and an on my fourth pair. These boots usually only last a year before they come unstitched on the rear side of the toe box just below the laces. Although the sole grips good and comfy to walk in, the sole is terrible for tracking mud and tiny rocks in houses, they have tiny gaps in tread. By the end of the year the sole usually tears up in spots from using shovels and walking ladders and ceiling joists. I like wearing them, but I just dont expect them to last more than a year. I use mink oil to keep them water resistant.

Great boots

The first pair I purchased lasted about 4 months before the stitching behind the heel failed. Aside from that, it is seriously a quality built boot. Easy break in, no blisters or aches. Boots molded to my foot within 2 days! HIGHLY recommended model work boot! Customer service deserves a 5 star rating! They're excellent! There's only one thing you must know before you purchase. They are absolutely NOT waterproof or even water resistant! KEEP THEM OUT OF THE WATER. Even walking through a grass yard on an foggy early autumn will cause your sock to get wet. Not damp, not moist, WET! Too much water collects and absorbs to the inside of the boot.

Fits great, very comfortable

These are comfortable right out of the box; finally my toes have enough room. I bought 8-1/2 and an 8 might have been roomy enough, but now i have lots of room for thick socks. It might be nice if they were quick lace at the top. I have high arches so i have to really open them up to get on. But worth it for the comfort!

Love the boot. They are comfortable and the quality is great.

Theyre freaking amazing! Theyre super comfortable, light, and great quality. I was looking for something light but durable since I work outside and walk a lot. These are perfect! I bought mine at Bass Pro and theyre worth every penny.

I work 10+ hour shifts standing on concrete working in a bakery. It's been hard to find a shoe that has all of the aspects I need. I went for these for the wide toe box, non slip bottom, lack of a heel and overall close to zero drop sole. The laces are stiff and seemingly waxed which at first I wasn't sure about but I actually really like that I don't have to double knot them to stay tied. The laces are a bit short as I had to take them out of the top set of holes to be able to have enough length to tie a knot. I don't mind this and probably would have opted for tying at the spot anyway as it's where my ankle flexes. I have been wearing these for 10-12 hours at a time for the last week and a half and they are getting more comfortable. They are a stiff leather so breaking them in was to be expected. Overall I'm happy with my purchase and glad to have found these. Plus I think they are cute!

Great stability and comfort. Solid but not too heavy. Cute style.
