Fit perfectly and very comfortable. Im on my feet and walking all day for my job and these were my daily go to's for well over a year. I replaced the arch supports and kept wearing them every day. I had the tabs /loops on both shoes repaired when they came unstitched. I recently bought a second pair because I liked these so much and I couldn't imagine not having a pair.

These boots fit great - I always have good luck with Keens as far as the fit goes. As all Chelsea boots seem to be for me, my only complaint is that they are hard to get on, as I have a high instep and a wide foot but am going to keep wearing them in the house to see if they might stretch a bit. The pull tabs are helpful in getting the boots on. They are very comfortable, and I am liking the somewhat "klunky" look of the boot. Have not worn them outside yet, but previous Keens I have owned have had good traction in the snow.

I absolutely love this boot. I had been looking for a waterproof boot that has good traction and still has some style and finally found the perfect fit. I usually wear a 7 1/2 or an 8. I have another pair of Keen winter hiking boots that are a 7 1/2, but I got these in an 8, and I think the fit is perfect. There may be a bit of space in the toe box, but if I put on a thick pair of wool socks or wanted to add some toe warmers, a 7 1/2 would be too small. Although I have a high instep, I was still able to get them on fairly easily the first time because of the double loops. That's another reason why I think the 8 was a better fit for me. The leather on these boots is fairly stiff and will hold up well for many years (if not decades) if taken care of, but because of that, you may need to break them in a bit. I have found that they haven't caused me any pain, but I started small, only walking in them for a couple blocks the first time, then building up. You will find that the leather softens fairly quickly and you will be happy that they started out snug. Also try wearing socks that are thicker around the leg for some cushion against the potential rub.
And did I mention how stylish these boots are? I will be wearing them with everything from jeans to leggings and quilted skirts to my pajamas when taking the dogs outside during the night to the tundra that was once our yard. Yes, the traction is amazing!
The comfort level on these shoes after the bit of break-in is a 10/10 for me.
I got them in black, and the color looks so crisp and clean. I also have tried on the olive color that has a very brown tone to it, but I don't wear much in those hues, and I think the black goes a little better with a dressier look. I did, for a moment, consider having both colors, but after wearing the black I realized I would never want to wear the olive instead of the black. I'm looking forward to many many years of comfort and style in these boots!

The shoe fits snug, but is quickly breaking in. Heel is a teensy bit loose, but so far no problems, hoping it molds to my foot over time. Style is great and I'm looking forward to seeing how they perform in the rain.

It’s hard to find a slip on boot that is also good for hiking. These are perfect! They are also warm. I highly recommend these to anyone who loves spending time outdoors in the winter.

The sizing of the Keen Greta is very comparable to all of my other (size 8.5) athletic shoes. Very briefly, they felt a little snug, however after walking around in the house, I realized that 1/2 size larger would probably be too large, so I headed out the door and walked 7.22 miles! They passed the test, both in comfort and keeping my feet dry. I live in an area that normally gets minimal amounts of snow in winter, but the vegetation I walk through while birding, is wet enough to saturate shoes. I own two other pairs of boots (Ugg and Merrell) that claim to be waterproof, but certainly are not. The Greta is perfect for walking in parks and fields. The soles are flat and stable with good traction. I'm wearing either Darn Tough or Smart Wool socks and have plenty of toe room.

Got these yesterday and wore them right out of the box today for close to 18 miles. I have several pairs of the targhee currently in rotation and the fit and feel is very similar. These are easy to slip in and out of and that was one of the main reasons for purchasing. The comfort is what I have come to expect from Keen, one minor note would be for some reason an inner seam on the left boot rubbed my ankle which I hate but toward the end of the day I didn't notice it as much so hopefully won't be an issue after a few more wears. I had no discomfort with the shaft of the boot rubbing my shin, which sometimes happens to me with this style but I did wear taller socks and pants and I am sure that helped. Overall, very happy with this purchase, they were exactly what I was hoping for after buying Blundstones and finding out that they are horribly uncomfortable.

I love these boots. They are very comfortable. Not too hard for me to get on. It gets easier every time I wear them but I don’t have a high instep or wide feet. I think my feet are average to slightly narrow. 7.5 is my normal size and that is what I got. The traction is really good and they are pretty light weight for a leather waterproof boot.

I love these. I didn’t find them hard to put on, as other reviewers did. However, I have been wearing Keen’s for years and I have always been a 7 in every pair of Keens to date, but not with this pair. I was able to get the 7 on, but they were tight, so I had to return them and size up to a 7.5. These are amazing boots though. I would recommend! I’ve always been a big fan of Keens for comfort and style.

I was experiencing some pain in the arch of my left foot, which radiated all the way up my leg to the back of my thigh, while working on our farm. I was wearing my mucking boots with arch support inserts at the time. Since I already had Keen slides that I liked and did not have any pain, I decided to get some new boots for the farm and these Greta Chelsea WP boots looked like they would work. I've been wearing them now for about two weeks and have not had any pain at all. I'm happy I decided to try these.

I was worried they wouldn’t fit well or that I might not be able to get them on and off, but I was pleasantly surprised when they arrived. I have been wearing 8.5 until now, but tried some Keen hiking shoes at a store and was told I am a size 9. I ordered size 9 and they fit well.

Very well made, but ankle gores are so tight sock heels pull up putting them on. Same tight grip around the ankles is uncomfortable for fast walking, leaving ankles sore for 24hrs. Tread is very stable and they look good, so I'm hoping a bit more breaking in will make them as comfortable as they look.

Love these boots. Wanted boots that would slide on to make getting my 5 month old puppy out to go potty quickly. These fit the bill. I wear them for everything, not just the puppy.
Thank you Keen for another great boot.

I used to always wear a size 8 in these boots but the last time I ordered the boots were way too small and the design is slightly different. Just an FYI so that people can order up a size. I am waiting until the 9 is back in stock so I can try that.

I have planter fascitis. aka: : over worked feet on cement for to many years. I have to wear insoles it doesn't matter brand. Keen's give me Ithe SUPPORT but I also have boney feet so I need cushion where it counts, at ankle bone, top of foot. . .
PLUS
Keens give me the structure I need with a wide toe box for bunions. My feet are not wide naturally but they need room in toe box- KEEN DOES. Yet they are boney foot regular everywhere else and amazing that the heal is narrow enough for my feet. My heal. never skips in a Keen
KEENS are everything I need and STYLISH! My 25 year old thinks they are cool.
Plus the Chelsea keeps me dry and cozy but not too warm. I walked about 4 miles in them the first day I got them and my feet feel great. Plus easy to get on and off.
