Great Boot Excellent Warranty

I purchased these boots many times and this was the first time I had to use the warranty the speed eyes broke on one of my boots and they replaced them very quickly very impressed thank you

The Best Boots I've Owned

This is my third pair of Durands and my first pair of Durand II. The previous pairs have carried me on hikes across 3 continents plus innumerable local hikes and state park patrols. I like them so much I use them on light hikes that don't really call for this heavy of a boot. They just feel that good. Today I took them for their first serious hike. I was a little concerned about some of changes on the new version but on the trail they were every bit as good as the older design.

Do Not Buy

These boots suffered a catastrophic material failure—specifically within minutes of stepping of a train. The soles did not simply delaminate; the polyurethane structure completely disintegrated on both shoes. I have confirmed this was not caused by chemical exposure, as the crumbling material caused no skin irritation upon contact. The response from Keen was this was normal and expected degradation.

Excellent Boot

Great boot. Second pair that I have bought. Only complaint is the sole should provide more cushioning. Using aftermarket insoles, I can hike for miles.

Great All Around Boot

Have had a wide-sized pair of these for years. Can't remember exactly but definitely over 5 years, maybe up to 7. Mostly I wear them for outdoor activity with a light pack and a lot of movement patterns upright, kneeling, and some crawling. Also, wear them for some hobbyist shop work on concrete. With some other boots I've had the sole would have separated from the upper by now, but the Keens are completely intact not even one spot showing weakness. The tread is still deep and works very well in the rough stuff. The leather tops are still in excellent condition. The boots are comfortable, the heel squishes the right amount for high impacts (running) and the sole is thick enough to be very protective in very rough rocks. I have a fairly wide foot, sometimes too wide for 'wide' shoes. The wide-sized Durand works very well for me, good room for foot to splay out in the toe box. I am going to say 'runs wide' on fit because these are conventionally sized boots, which for me is a good thing. Only one slight issue for me, in the last 6 months (after years of hard use), some riveted eyelets have popped off down around my first toe knuckles. Since I'm not worried about looks JB weld fixes this issue, and the boots are back to 100% functionality. My family has had many pairs of Keen shoes and so far the brand has been very trustworthy

Best Boots I’ve Owned!

Best pair of hiking boots I’ve owned. They took about a month to fully break in and now they’re perfect. I’ve put well over 1,000 miles on these in the alps of Switzerland, Italy, Canada, Norway, Washington, and Colorado and they’re in top shape. Couldn’t ask for more!

2nd Pair

my 1st pair is still in good shape, jus' wanted another pair. these boots are comfortable and practical, would recommend them to anybody looking for a decent pair of boots

1500+ Tough Miles And Outstanding Durability

Best hiking/hunting boots I have ever owned (now age 60+). Photos show the wear after a conservative estimate of 1500+ miles hunting/hiking in flatlands to rocky mountains of WI, WY, ID, NM in wet humid, to snow to dry weather conditions. Leather finally started to split (see pencil tip next to repair) but mainly my fault as you can see the leather is dry and I had not oiled them for a couple hundred miles. Repaired leather cracks with Aquaseal and will continue using till new pair arrives. The stitching did not fail (see photos). Soles are still in good shape and showing some wear, but that is expected with the mileage. In size 8. 5 they weigh 44. 5 oz. which is light for a leather boot. These boots are very comfortable for my feet and provide good ankle support in steep terrain. I hope Keen continues to make them for many more years.

Dangerously Slippery Soles

First, I really appreciate that they are made in America. I’ve worn these boots for 2 years and the fit and construction is great, but they are the sole of the shoe is very very slippery. If you step on the smallest rock that’s a little wet, log, roots or step on a damp tile floor it is like you are ice skates. I wouldn’t recommend these until they fix the sole. Maybe I’ll try an anti slip work boot model next, otherwise I find Merrill hikers to by less slippery. I would really like to exchange them if I could.

Great Boot

Fit and support are perfect. These are my go-to boots.

Love These Things!

This is my 4th pair of these boots. I absolutely love them! They are completely comfortable (after the break-in period) and last a very long time. I’ve been wearing hiking boots exclusively for 17 years now. And these are the only ones I keep going back to.

Get Them And Enjoy The Clouds

Would give 5 if the eyelets didn't snap off when they brushed up against a ladder. The most comfortable boots I've ever owned, will not wear anything else 18+ hours a day in these things and I can keep going. Please make the eyelets the same at the Dover boots and it will be 5 star everyday

Good Waterproof Relatively Lightweight Hiking Boots

I had a pair of Durand I boots for about 5 or so years and they fit and worked well. They were about worn out so I ordered the Durand II model. I looked at a lot of other hiking boots but all were too narrow even in their Wide fit models. The Durand I and Durand II boots have a wide fore-foot toe box area that I need. The old boots will now be for lawn and garden and the new ones will be for beach hiking, mountain bike riding, and general use. The Durand II model has a few upgrade design details but overall looks like the second generation of the same basic design.

Quality Lacking

I have been wearing these boots for years. They always used to fit perfect and wear awesome. Now the insoles are wrinkled and sizing between the two shoes are different. Quality is lacking. I tried on 3 different pair, then gave up and bought a pair of Red Wings.

Great Boot. A Couple Manufacturing

Great boot. A couple manufacturing defects with my last couple pairs, but Keen was quick to replace them at no cost
