Where's the arch support?
Generally, the shoes were very supportive. The sole is firm and great for stability. The style is really cute and I had high hopes for support, but sadly, they are nothing like the keens I already own. If they cost only a few dollars, I might mess around with inserts, but at $109, they are getting returned. What's up Keens??!!

Generally all my favs have taken a deep dive in quality. I'm stumped.

I have wide feet. Keen is my go-to everything shoe. I took these shoes to Switzerland because I wanted something that looked cute with joggers and I wanted a non-boot trail shoe. I feel like it was a great choice! Very comfy- I walked all over the place with them. I didn’t have to break them in at all, they were great hiking…
They are not water proof- however- I sprayed them before I left and I had no issues with snow/rain.
I wear an 8.5 keen. These were big. Not sure why sizing was all over the place, but in hindsight- i would have liked an 8.

First of all, I love the style! There is plenty of room in the tow box for wider feet, but it fits me fine with average feet and a bunion. This shoe is not for people with narrow feet. The feel comfortable when trying on in the house, but the arch support isn't all that great. I am thinking about trying other insoles for better arch support. Other than that, this might be my new favorite shoe!

The fit was perfect. These walking shoes were great for our trip to the Galapagos. They are lightweight, breathable, and have really good grip.

I purchased a pair of these for a two week trip to Europe- and so happy I did! They were perfect for walking many fast miles daily, looked stylish, and I especially loved that I could lace them high enough to prevent ankle slippage. 100% recommend!

This shoe meets all the requirements for my "special" feet. I need a wide enough toe bed so the nerve on the edge of my foot doesn't get squeezed (extremely painful), I have first toes that pronate so I need a roomy tow box and I have a very high instep. Also, I usually have to order a size up from an 8 because it seems things are running a bit small these days, but I ordered my regular size 8 with no problems. Not only do these meet all these criteria but they are the absolute cutest things ever!!! (I got the leopard print). I am a nurse and got them for work. They are comfortable right out of the box and I can't wait to show them off.

I love these sneakers! They do run large, as I am a true 9 to 9.5, and the 8.5 fits perfectly. I have knee problems and these have excellent support and stability. and they are super cute!

I adore these shoes. They are the perfect fit for my high arched wide feet. Even my plantar fasciitis is relieved with these shoes. Also, they look really good too. Strong work whomever designed these shoes. I hope they keep making them. I actually bought two more sets of them as I like them so much.

Love, love, love these! Very well made and comfy. They have a European look to them. They came with an alternate shoe lace design which I switched from the black and really liked. I want an additional pair in a different color already!

Bought these just for dog walks, but they look so cute on that now I want to spare them the grass and dirt. They are comfy and feel great on walks. Best, they don't look big and boxy like some sportier sneakers tend to look. (I wear a 9.5 in Adidas, but sized down (based on reviews) and got the size 9; they are perfect and look sleek.)

I bought these for a trip to London and Paris to wear with casual black pants and jeans. I am very particular about fit, and these Keens were awesome - I was able to wear for 20,000+ steps in a day with no pain or issues. Great shoe!

Super comfortable to stand in for hours at a concert. The heel is great for driving. I am happy all around with these shoes.

I love these shoes! I got them a week before an ice storm! They really helped with traction on the ice & snow! They are also comfortable on the pavement!

After a couple days of wear, I think I need a larger size. Since I like the style i will order a half size larger and try again.

There are not bad. If I hadn't found the high trail vent I might have kept these. They are a bit narrower in the ball of foot area than the High Trail but it should work for your size if you don't have a wide foot. I'm a 9 in street shoes, 10 in Merrell Moab, and I felt I was between a 9 and 9.5 in this shoe, but I would choose 9.5 because of my slightly wide foot, or if I needed to wear a thicker sock - 9.5 instead of 9. They have a little bit of a clunky feel because of the sole wrapping front and back.

Size and width were ok, however, not enough arch support for my taste and the heal is somewhat slippery. Sadly, a return.

Widest to box I've ever had in a sneaker. Easy donning and doffing with or without tying the laces each time.
Drawback: Inadequate (or not appropriate for me) arch support.
Been wearing Keen for 2 decades.

This was a good buy on sale. The shoe does run large, but it works for me with heavier socks. I wish there was more arch support.

Ive never been so easily in love with a pair of sneakers!!!
First of all Im a neutral girlie so the overall aesthetic/retro vibe these Keen sneaks provide is to die for! So far Ive only been wearing them to work out on my walking pad indoors BUT I plan to wear them with denim and all the fall colors come next season!! I love the modern platform with sneaker like functional but next level style! I can see these easily being dressed up or down and love that versatility!
I also appreciate the high traction rubber which gives me the footing I need when walking/running! The arch support and footbed itself contours to my feet and theyre seriously the most comfy shoes Ive ever had! Theyre also breathable and lightweight so I ca easily see myself wearing these all day long with no issue! For me they ran a tad small (Im usually a size 7) but I ordered 7.5 and they fit perfectly with just enough toe room and or room for thicker socks if need be! You need these shoes! Seriously!!

I was unable to use this shoe because the callous on my hammer toe rubbed on the top.
