I so wanted to love this boots. I help on to them and kept trying them on, but they just don't fit right. Love the styling, how they look, the comfort of the foot, that they are good for rain & snow. I want a boot that is comfortable walking in, and Keens always work for me. It is probably my wide calves, but that wouldn't have been such an issue if the zipper wasn't so sticky and difficult to pull up. Once I had them zippered, they sagged in the ankle. If I could afford to, I would hold on to them longer, but I really don't see myself wearing them anytime soon. I am trying to replace my beloved Uggs Brooks short boot which have lasted for years...I can only find the tall version now.

I love Keen but never owned a pair of their boots. These looked comfortable, along with being warm and waterproof. They're perfect for casual wear and definitely work appropriate. I recieved them in the mail yesterday and presently wearing them with a casual dress, they look adorable. More importantly they are true to size and SO comfortable. I feel as though I'm wearing sneakers! I don't see there being a breaking in period either as the leather is not stiff. The boots have a lot of give and cushion. Keen is worth the price tag in my opinion. The seller was great also b/c I changed the size after my order was placed and everything was correct when the came.

Be sure to order a boot that is big enough. My usual size is 9 or 9.5 but I ordered a 10 since I'm out in the weather a lot and wanted to wear the boots with my coziest thick socks; for that, I feel like I could have gone up another 1/2 size. Also, I read that the calf circumference was 16.5". My calves measured 15", yet I would not want the boots to be any more snug than they are. Tights, woolens, or thinner leggings are fine, but I doubt I could fit the boots over jeans.
The traction is very good, but could be better. I had hoped to be able to replace my clunky snow-boots with these great-looking Keens, but in really slick conditions, I'll stick with the former.
Overall, these are fantastic boots! They're warm and comfortable, and one of the few boots I could find with lovely soft leather, a practical, comfortable sole, and a great style. With a tiny bit of tweaking, by making the boots more exactly true to size and giving them just a bit more traction, they...Read more
