  • My first ever actual work boots.
Color: Belgian/Sandshell Size: 15 Wide
After a horrible experience with Timberland Pro boots, I pivoted to a Soft Toe, as recommended by someone. This is my first choice, as I wasn't willing to sell a kidney to get a Thorogood or a Nick boot. First off? This is the most generous toe-box I've ever had. I've healed in these boots after the Timbs clamped down on my feet and "strangled" them. These supported me to the point I fully healed. Simply put, these things fit like a glove for my size of 15 Wide. They're also thick enough to command respect from the very ground you walk on. This will sound weird, but I've never felt stronger than in these boots. These things are also insanely waterproof. I dipped my foot in a huge rain puddle before thinking "OH NO, I'M SCREWED!" and yet these things just didn't let any in. I barely had to break these in, again, these fit like feet gauntlets. They embraced and wrapped around my feet like this boot and I were meant to be. Now this is technically a "casual" style boot, but I don't exactly use these for style and fashion. I use these so they don't die to chemicals like a Sketcher would. Now in terms of "value", try not to expect these to last as long as a Thorogood. The good news is you can resole these. The bad news is...it's not worth it vs buying a new pair of these, preferably under or at 150 bucks. The Midsole will die quicker than the outsole, and you will feel that. To replace that with a cobbler's quotes is like 250 bucks and you lose the boots for a week. So, on the one hand, absolutely love these boots. On the other: don't be like me and spend above 200 to make sure they don't die. ... show more

  • Comfortable, DRY, Great
Color: Belgian/Sandshell Size: 9
A woman in the store was wearing these boots, I asked her if they were waterproof and if she liked them. We talked for over 5 minutes on how comfortable and farm-worthy these boots are! I bought them while standing there with her, and they arrived the next morning! Here is my honest review. Right out of the box they are comfortable. Some reviewers mentioned the size being too big and to sign down a half size, I did not and i'm so glad. They fit perfect, I wear a womans 10.5 - 11 and I ordered a mens 9. its perfect. My left foot is slightly wider at the top and I felt that when putting the boots on but after walking arond the house, that tightness on the left side went away. When I knew I would be keeping them, I walked out in the yard and began the trek to the chicken coop. My feet stayed dry as I walked through the morning grass and tall weeds. I love the look and feel of these boots. They are soft leather with a higher sole, which adds height. There is a cushion around the ankle for those long days of wear. I got these on sale, and the value for the boot is great! My wife wears Danners only, which carry a heftier price tag, but these are the same quality for a more affordable price tag. My only hesitation in the purchase was that I truly prefer a slip-on boot; my hiking boots are Keen, and they are snug and take effort to put on with the laces. This Keen Cincinnati boot, however, was much easier to lace and not as snug so it was a great compromise. ... show more

  • Awesome boot and since my foot surgery I have tried many boots and these are my favorite
Color: Black/Sandshell Size: 12 Wide
Love these boots I have foot problems and with my orthotic inserts in these boots I work 8/10 hour days when I get home after work and take them off I want to put them back on they have all the support I need and the soles are amazing !!! Oh and rehab evictions for a living some of the worst I have seen so they can take a lot of abuse and so far they are holding up great I have nothing bad to say about these boots ... show more

  • Comfortable out of the box!
Color: Black/Sandshell Size: 9.5 Wide
First day of wearing them and let me tell you, they are probably the most comfortable work boots I have ever owned, and I went thru many different brands. Just by looking at them, you can tell that they are wide and won't have your toes crammed up. Sewn look tells you that the sole won't separate and it is a quality made item and black leather looks very stylish, kind of feel bad wearing them to work. I believe they won't need any break in period because they're functional and comfortable out of the box. Price is fair. Generally, very happy with the item. A bit on the heavy side, but not an issue for me. ... show more

  • Pretty good, but a little disappointing
Color: Belgian/Sandshell Size: 9 Wide
These boots are quite comfortable except that a very sloppy built-up stitch where the tongue gusset attaches to the main part of the upper on one of the boots created a pain point on my instep. I was able to flatten the offending stitching enough to eliminate the discomfort. The combination of the out-mid-and-insoles was as comfortable on the soles of my feet as any boots I've worn. Unfortunately, the thin bottom layer of the outsoles wore through at the heels pretty quickly, and the outsoles separated from the mid-soles at the toes (which I successfully repaired with polyurethane construction adhesive). The durability of the leather uppers was fine. The inbuilt waterproofing was inferior to that in other boots I've had; until I applied mink oil to the uppers, my feet would get wet from walking in wet grass. ... show more

  • I like everything about this boot!
Color: Belgian/Sandshell Size: 11.5
I start with the only potential issue, which is moreso trade-related than footwear related. As an apprentice plumber, I'm on my knees a lot and I forsee that the toe stitching will wear out before the rest of the boot. I know Keen makes great shoes with rubber toes, but I wanted a durable wedge boot to keep mud out of my customers houses after playing in the mud. Once this boot fails, I will buy the Fort Wayne. Someone on reddit convinced me to buy this because it's more durable, but the Fort Wayne is more reinforced on the toes and I think will still hold up long-term digging trenches or dropping molten solder on them. That said, these boots are great. They look sharp and are comfortable and durable. Aside for me perhaps buying the wrong trade-specific boot, I have no complaints. Keen is consistent with their sizing and I never have had to return a pair for that reason. I love the wide toe box that allows for a more stable and natural foot movement. There are plenty of fancy, heavy-duty leather work shoes and boots that I've returned because of the narrow toe. I'm done with that junk and it's one of the things I like about keen. Their hiking boots look a little clunky, but they do a great job of consistently providing a product that caters more towards the natural ergonomics of the human foot. On a related note... The next step would be to offer a zero-drop work boot (Cincinnati, Fort Wayne, etc.). DeWalt has done it. Are you listening, Keen? Overall, this is a wonderful 3-4 season boot (still looking for something different for the Summer heat) and I'd recommend it to anyone in the service trades who has to work outside and also be in their customers' homes, provided you don't kneel a lot. ... show more

  • Wide toe box and heavy duty
Color: Belgian/Sandshell Size: 12
No complaints. Comfortable so far. I appreciate the wide toe box Keen uses with their boots. When they describe these has heavy duty they aren't kidding at all. Overkill for my use but hey, they seem like they'll last.

  • NOT WATER PROOF!!!!!!!
Color: Belgian/Sandshell Size: 9
These are in no way water proof from my experience. I drive a concrete mixer and need to spray mud off my boots after almost every delivery. I spray the tops, sides and soles with a low pressure hose similar to what you have at your home. These boots started soaking thru on the 3rd day. I use a boot dryer daily to manage any wetness mostly, from sweatting during the day, but needed the extra drying due to water penetration. The inside tops of the boot absorbed water like crazy and then the sides became saturated. My feet started getting cold from the floor AC vents and when I removed the boots the entire interior was wet except for the bottom. If you never get these boots near water they will probably work for you. They are not uncomfortable when dry ... show more
