Customer Reviews KEEN WK400 Performance Breathable Walking

Super comfortable. Nice and wide toe

This is the best walking shoe I have ever owned! The difference between this shoe and a running shoe is noticeable and some may need a day or two to get used to the feel. But I like the feel and plan to use this shoe far into the future.

Rocker bottom takes some getting used to, but I love it.

Great shoes feels like Im floating. Shoes helped my Knee and back pain. Another great shoe from Keen!

The best walking shoe ever. I have planter fasciitis and have bought many shoes. But my feet always hurt. Since i bought the WK400, i have no need to buy any other shoes. They are so comfortable. I now walk 3 miles a day and have no pain.

very comfortable once you get a size that fit, I had to go a full size larger that normal for the width to be correct

When I ordered these shoes I was looking for a totally different type of shoe. Lighter, more summery. But this shoe intrigued me because I had a Mortons neuroma and this shoe had a sole & tech that was different enough to try. It has totally relieved any stress and pressure on the area & I dont feel the neuroma any more at all. Comfortable to walk in strange though it is.

While standing still they hurt my arches really bad. While walking they hurt my arches. For me theres not enough of the sole touching the ground. I understand the concept behind the shoe and why the sole is shaped like it is. These are just not for me. Im very grateful for Keens trial and return policy which allowed me to figure this out and not be stuck with a purchase. Unfortunately, I had to send them back.

Great shoe

and they are. very comfortable and no difficulty wearing or walking

Good walking shoes but it takes a long time for the feet to get used to the shape and walking style. I have had these for about three months and am now starting to feel good. I would not recommend taking them near offroad surfaces as you will roll your ankle or trip. Good pavement walking shoes though.

These have a slight rocking motion that is just right. I have a medium arch which sometimes aches, but these feel great on long walks/hikes.

The shoe started ripping at the seam after three weeks of wearing. The inside front of the shoe has also started to become unglued. Not the quality I have come to expect from KEEN.

I suffer from degenerative spinal issue, spondylosis and due to some loss of muscle unable to walk without my left foot slapping. I tire easily. The WK400 Walking Shoe helps me complete the cycle of each step and propels me along. I can easily walk 5 miles without a problem. I am 67yrs old. A game changer for me.

After walking by KEEN Footwear Store in Pearl District,Portland a couple of weeks ago my attention to the Keen Shoes was caught by the color in window display..YELLOWnow thats a heck of a color I havent seen before!I was so intrigued I went inside to check out and try on a pair of KEEN Walking Shoes and immediately fell in love with them. Cushioning: I loved the heel to toe feeling of walking around..I have been a consumer of Nike or Adidas Running Shoes for the last 20 years but these just felt different!Durability:These shoes are definitely built to last..from their solid cushioning concept to the exterior fabric covering top of shoe.Plenty of support in the heel to take a pounding day after day of walking..the sheer thickness of sole gives added security and comfort with every step. Traction: Solid traction material really helps on wet or slippery surfaces..I use them mainly to walk in neighborhoods in NE Portland and take them on the occasional trip on trails or to parks..plus,having extra cushioning around heel and ankle gives me added support and security.. Color: I had to pick Yellow..and,it happened to be the ONE color they were out of at store(not in inventory)but sales rep suggested I ordered online,which I did..I ordered the Mens Walking Shoe WK400..and delivery was prompt..once I put them on and started my walks the compliments started pouring in from complete strangers as to how well they liked my shoes and where could they get a pair.. Downside: If any,only downside might be the overall weight of shoe for some..as compared to Nike or Adidas shoesbut those have been running shoes,not shoes designed for walking..overall,I think the extra weight is an added benefit to walkers and should not inhibit their walking experience. So stand out.Choose out of the ordinary.Break out from what youve always used. So,stick with the Yellow..brilliant idea..stand out amongst the crowd of blues,greens and earth tones.

This is my first walking shoe. I've worn running shoes my whole life as running has always been a part of my daily routine. The years of pavement pounding have taken a toll on my knees causing me to transition to walking. Enter in the Keen WK400. These shoes have made my walking sessions comfortable and effortless. They seem to spring you forward with each step and I've noticed less fatigue wearing these as opposed to my typical running shoe. The WK400's checks all of my boxes for the perfect walking shoe. Couldn't be happier with these!

These shoes are very comfortable for long walks around the city. The curved design makes each stride easy, effortless, and fun. I'd highly recommend these shoes if you're someone who loves to walk around!

I love the soles on these shoes. I had to buy a shoe strecher to stretch these shoes out to fit my wide big feet. size 13. I wish they had these rolling soles on a boot type shoe or offered them in wide sizes.

This shoe has helped me remarkably as it relates to arch support. I have many pairs of excellent shoes and have had prosthetics made for those shoes, they have helped, however Since buying a pair of WK400 I do not wear any other shoe except for hiking or wilderness camping.I purchased a pair for my Son.His arches are so bad they do not touch the ground when barefoot. He called and raved about how much the have helped him.I just ordered another pair for him today. I only wish they were waterproof, and of course would go on sale!

Im a 79 year old man. Ive been a Keen shoe wearer for years. I walk 3 miles a day, 6 days a week on asphalt. I purchase new walkers about every 12 months or when my knees or hips start to hurt. Whichever comes first. I bought these walkers June 6th and have about 50 miles on them so far. The shoes took a bit getting used to. The rocking forward was a new experience. New users should expect at least 10 days to adjust. Now? I couldnt go back to my old shoes. The forward motion has changed my per mile time without any heel or hip issues. I have to draw up the heels when I lace up. Keen needs to add a bit of length to their laces so walkers can utilize the back lace holes. Hopefully the shoes last at least a year. If they do Ill buy the again. All in all, Im crazy about them. Hats off to your engineers. Love the Keen yellow.

I'm mostly positive on this pair of shoes. It feels really strange with the curved bottom, especially when standing still on a hard surface, but they feel wonderful when you're actually walking. They've broken in nicely, and fit true to size. They are definitely bulky, but I can see the appeal of these things and think they'll be a great addition to my closet.

I loved the feel of the shoes while walking, the inner sole was comfortable and it allowed my feel to be cushioned with every step, I plan on purchasing another pair before these wear out. Love the color as it blends with everything I wear

These took a little while to get accustomed to. I tend to walk toe first which lead to shin splints and knee pain and these force me to walk heel to toe. After some practice my long walks are virtually painless. These shoes are made for constant motion in my opinion. If youre planning on wearing these for general daily use you will be very uncomfortable. While standing the curved bottom applies a lot of pressure on your arch.

A great walking shoe. Stylish and comfortable shoe. Ive been looking for a new type of sole that helps on longer hikes. The fabric breathes well for hotter climates and the wear is good. Ive put in quite a few miles already.

Keen makes fantastic shoes that are always great quality, I've owned many pairs for previous jobs I've worked and they always lasted a long time. The WK400 shoes are a very unique shoe. The curved sole takes some getting used to if you've never had a shoe like this. I feel like they add about an inch or more onto your overall height when wearing. Size fits true to other brands in same size.
