Great shoes for the day hiker who likes nice dinners, too
I initially tried these shoes on at a few local retailers, as I was on a short timeline. The stores didn't have the half-size I needed, though, so I turned to Amazon.I was looking for a shoe that could function for day hiking in moderate terrain (trail hiking, not bushwhacking or mountain climbing) but that was also stylish enough to be worn abroad and in my professional office. Essentially I wanted something I could wear anywhere in the world for any dry-ground activity I was likely to take part in without standing out as a typical running-shoe-clad American. My biggest concern going in was the other reviews that said it wasn't likely to be good for hiking, but I took my chances.I'm delighted that I did. Less than a week after receiving my shoes in the mail I went on a trip that ended up including city walking and a five mile hike on a rustic trail with 1500 feet of elevation gain. My feet never hurt once. I'm usually prone to blisters when hiking, but in these shoes none of my usual tender patches flared up - and I didn't find any new sore sports, either. I have a bad ankle (bimalleolar fracture in 2009 requiring four screws, which are still in place) that is often swollen, but these shoes accommodate it beautifully. Despite being laced shoes, I found them very fast to take off and put back on at TSA.And they weathered the hike marvelously. I was concerned that the rubber over the toes would scuff or nick on the rocky, dusty terrain, but they didn't - and I know I smacked them into edges several times. The leather uppers cleaned off easily with a damp paper towel when we got home. The soles themselves proved more than a match for moderate slopes varying from bare rocks to loose sand. I would switch into something else if I was looking to cross muddy terrain, I think, but for your average day hike these are great.

Have to work? Don't care about how *pretty* your shoes are? These shoes are AMAZING!
Ordered these for my girlfriend, this is her review:I ordered these shoes for work. My work is kind-of hard to describe. I will just say: I walk a lot...in rain, snow, sleet; I climb ladders, I can be walking around in standing water--any of this--I can be doing all of it for MANY hours.THESE SHOES ARE AWESOME. They're ugly, but they're awesome.To call them awesome, despite how very unattractive they are, one needs experience in the elements I've dealt with, I suppose...with the wrong shoes.So, they're chick shoes...right? When I received them, they had pink flowers in the soles and sparkly black laces. Beyond the size, that's the only indication I have that these are 'lady' shoes. They're ugly. There are no longer pink flowers in the soles, the sparkly laces remain, but their looks are not their purpose. These are work shoes.I can wear them all day without thinking about them...which is the mark of a good working shoe. I cannot recollect slipping in them; yes I do mean in rain, snow, sleet, dust, oil, grease, wet grass, all of thee above. Again I say; THEY ARE UGLY...and again, after working in them for so long, I have to ask: please sir, can I have some more? Other colors, other materials, other ankle heights...can you make me these in a steel or otherwise OSHA approved toe? I NEED ALL OF IT. Amazing shoe for the 'working WOman.'So now you're wondering...FIT:Length-I wear 9.5 typically. These fit perfect. -15F? Thick socks? Fine. 93F? Thinner socks...(or maybe not?)...Fine. Adjust the laces if necessary, folks.Heel-Feels good to me. I have what most would describe as a small/thin heel.Box-Again, feels good to me. I have what most would describe as a broad 'below-toe/box' measurement.Arch-Perfect for me. I have moderate-to-high arches and my feet really still feel great after days, and days, and DAYS in these awesome shoes.Bottom line-I always feel that adjusting the laces can give me a better/proper fit in these shoes should conditions or my preferences change.I'd say the absolutely worst thing about the shoes is their complete-and-utter-ugliness, coupled with stinkiness. I leave this to the end because I understand that personal foot 'stank' can vary. I don't have any other shoes that stink like these, *BUT* I also don't spend so much time working hard in other shoes.Have to work? Don't care about how *pretty* your shoes are? These shoes are AMAZING!

Comfortable and stabilizing with a wide toe box and
I have been wearing this Keen style, Presidio, for many years in all variations of colors. My go to is the black because it blends with much of what I wear. My favorite colors are red and purple. They have not been available f or a few years.So, back to the shoe! It is very comfortable for walking and daily wear activities. The shoe has excellent support and comfort right out of the box for me. It has a wide toe box so my tootsies are not cramped and do their natural grasping.The materials last a long time and are good for rougher weat. I also use them for light hiking.They are my go to shoe.I also wear custom orthotics. The footed is easily removable and easily accommodates my orthotics.

I was told they are wide THEY ARE NOT WIDE
I have been buying this model of Keen shoe for at least 3 years, if not longer, they have been so great. Sometimes I would get 2 pairs annually instead of the one pair. The ad calls it a wide shoe, but due to some debate among buyers I asked specifically if it were wide and was told yes, so I ordered 2 pairs one black one brown. They arrived on the 22nd and it’s the 31st and I just tried them on. They look the same but they are stiffer and they are not wide. They were snug and they hurt the ball and instep top and side area of my foot. Under the shoes tongue it lists sizes, but there is no W for wide which is featured in every Keen pair of shoes in this style I have ever purchased. I wanted soft leather, comfortable, waterproof, wide shoes, with low rise sides. These shoes no longer meet my requirements. I am sadly returning them. They still looked nice.

Wonderful shoe
Fits well, "real" leather. Room for my toes! Great support. Thank you for creating this wonderful footwear.Uncertain if I need to pre-treat with leather protector.

Very comfortable although not dainty
This is my second pair-different colour. I find them so comfortable for my wide feet even though they’re not the daintiest shoes available.

Bulky, heavy, ugly but a perfect fit for my duck shaped feet that are impossible to get comfortable shoes for.
