I have been an Amazon customer for over 10 years and I have never been compelled to write a review as quickly as this one.

These shoes are incredibly confortable. I have no idea how they managed to make work shoes this comfortable. They look pretty nice as well.

I always struggle to find good shoes since I have wide feet. I ordered 10 wide and these are actually wide. Most shoes say they are wide, but they still fit me snug. I’m ok with snug running or workout shoes, but not for shoes I will be using walking around a 100,000 square foot warehouse.

I have only worn these shoes for 10 minutes and I am loving them. As long as they keep making them like this, I will keep getting these until I retire. Even then, they may be of some use when doing work around the house or on my cars.

Thank you Keen for helping me start off 2023 with awesome work shoes.

Good, but falling apart after 10 months.

These shoes have served well, and they're comfortable enough, even with my orthotics inserted, but after 9-10 months, the fabric is coming apart on the upper, where the toe bends. The safety toe is good.

This is my second pair. When I original bought the first pair, I went to a store and tried one nearly twenty pairs of safety toed tennis shoes. The Keens were the best by far. I have both wide and flat feet. I had worn cheaper steel toed shoes with inserts. They do not even compare to these. No insert required. The toe is aluminum, not steel, which helps to make the shoe even lighter. I will buy another pair once these need to be replaced.

I work in aviation maintenance and i purchased these in July 2023 and now the sole on the toe is coming off. The only positive thing is that they are very comfortable for walking and standing.

Second pair I’ve purchased. Comfortable and light. Wear ten hours a day on concrete. Will buy again when these wear out. Last pair lasted over two years.

I’m sure these would be just fine for someone else’s feet. Just not mine.

Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2023

Size: 15Color: Steel Grey/BlackVerified Purchase

I’m a big guy. 6’3” and 400 pounds. I’m also an automotive technician. My shoes are subject to all kinds of chemicals and other crap. Needless to say, I’m hard on my shoes and hard on my feet. To make matters worse I wear a size 15 and I have very flat feet. I can’t go to the store to try shoes on because the store doesn’t have my size. I have to rely on the internet to buy shoes that almost never even fit me right and then I have to send them back. Every now and then I get lucky and find the golden shoes that just happen to fit my big flat feet right. Then if the shoe seems to hold up to my abuse, I’ll buy the same pair over and over again as I wear them out.

I wanted a low top safety toe work slow and tried these. They have an arch that makes the front of my foot (in front of where a normal arch would be) sort of hover and not even make full contact with the sole and also my pinky toes rub on the sides of the toe boxes. I’m not sure what that’s about but I’ve never had that problem in any shoes. I know it’s going to cause blisters. Couldn’t even walk around my yard without foot pain. I rated 3 stars because I know my feet are not the normal.

Lightweight

Lightweight, durable so far only had for 3 months. Most of my keen shoes only last 8 months before lace loop hols start to break and the area where it is ventilated on the shoe starts to rip.
