Customer Reviews KEEN Zionic Waterproof

Im giving this shoe 2 stars only for the waterproof outer. It worked well in rain. However the toe box of this shoe was even more narrow than I would have expected from a narrowed version of a Keen shoe. As a result my feet had less room than I had come to expect. At first I thought it would be ok, but after wearing the shoe off and on for a couple of months I developed pain on my big toe. When I reached out to customer service I was told my shoes were purchased too long ago to return. Today is 2 months since they were delivered. The problem is that I couldnt have known this would be a problem after wearing the shoes for just a couple of weeks. I wish I would have bought them from REI. Their return policy is infinitely better as is their customer service.

shoes run small and narrow.

Very stiff, especially at the heel where it meets the ankle & the entire shoe doesnt seem to have much give for movement, and the middle of the shoe seems awfully wide for my feet. Length is fine, toe box is wide enough and they seem sturdy but I dont think Ill be able to wear them. Ill try to wear them one more time but will probably have to return them.

I tried to return these and was unable

Only worn once so far, but very happy with it. LOVE the orage!!

So comfortable and so supportive and so waterproof

I have always been able to wear Keens right out of the box but the right shoe rubbed a blister on the back of my foot. I'm hoping with a little more breakin this will resolve.

Bad quality looks like used for long time after 1 used

I have several pairs of Keens and love them. Bought these to wear at work where I do a lot of walking. Other reviews said they fit narrow heels well, and this is true. They are very comfortable. One of them does make an annoying clicking/thjnking sound from inside the sole with every step.

Love my new Keen waterproof (truly) hiking shoes. I added Keen high arch support inserts and they are perfect.

I love the fact that the were waterproof unfortunately I had to return. They were to stiff.

I have worn Keen shoes for decades. Glad they offer new styles to attract new wearers but I can no longer purchase shoes without first trying them on. That said these looked nice but we're too narrow in the toe area for me. I did find another style of Keen that worked for me though.

these are very comfortable. i have arthritis in my hips, it might sound crazy but my hios feel much better when i wear these shoes.

Lacks long term durability for hiking. Poor front toe protection. Wore these hiked 50 miles of moderate hiking terrain in Acadia National Park and the sole is already wearing out and front part of the toe bumper is pealing away on both shoes. I have 3 other pairs of Keen shoes that I love but these are not worth the money if youre going to put a lot of hiking miles on them. I will be returning them.

Super comfortable, and absolutely true to size. I'm always a little hesitant to purchase new brands without trying on a pair, but everything I heard about Keens pushed me right over the edge of my hesitancy! The only reason I've got a star off is they're giving me the absolute gnarliest blisters on right where my calves start heading to ankle territory. I totally get that it's because of the material, and that it's historically not a spot that super stiff, hard material normally comes into contact with.

My new Zionics just arrived yesterday. I am using them on a walk this morning and they seemed to fit well. The only issue is the top of the back heel. My wish is that they soften up enough, and it is not an issue and I don't need to exchange them. Shoe runs a little wide in the width. I am wearing a little thicker sock on a warm summer morning.

Love the color and love the fit!

Got these for my wife as a replacement. She likes the fact that they are light and comfortable and the fact they are waterproof and the color. Perfect. We also purchased new insoles from Superfeet. Now she's ready to rock and roll. Thanks Keens team.

Just received my new Zionics and took them for a long walk and they are excellent shoes. I ordered a half size larger as suggested by some reviewers and I am glad that I did. I wear thicker socks and the half size bump up accommodated my socks and feet perfectly. I

Ive been searching for shoes that fit my narrow heel, wide forefoot feet all summer. These fit the bill and Im so relieved! The heel feels very secure but the top of the heel is quite rigid and rubs. I bent this piece of fabric a little and it helped take some of the friction off. The only thing I am not as pleased about is that theyre quite warm, even sitting in an air conditioned home. I will be exchanging for the non waterproof version to see if it helps.

Hello. I bought a pair of tennis shoes to take on a trip with me, but unfortunately, I tried to wear them around the house for a few days before I left for my trip and my feet were hurting a lot. I didnt have time to call or return them and Im hoping that I can return them when I get back home. Im still out of the country at the moment.

These are great shoes. They're comfortable, supportive and tough enough for hiking on trails. The fit is wide enough but no too wide. Plus they look nice.

Feels pretty good so far. No breaking in needed. Only complaint is outside left shoe sole is a bit wider than right shoe.

Fit and quality are great, should be excellent for light to medium trails. More to come!

These are just what I was looking for. I volunteer at an animal shelter and have to use a hose to clean dog kennels, but wanted something other than gardening shoes or my winter muck boots!
