KEEN Men's Voyageur Mid Hiking Boot

Comment

Great hiking shoe/boot. Best for those who need a wide toe box. The sole inserts that come with these shoes are not for me though. I have to buy seperate sole inserts to make my feet the most supported, that is why I rate them 4 stars instead of 5. These shoes are worth the money. The tread on the bottom of these type of keen hiking boots can be tricky on slippery surfaces like slick mud or ice and frost or even wet wood planks when hiking on a trail in a wet area so be advised and be cautious about this. Once the tread wears down on the heal of the shoes they really get slippery in slippery conditions. Otherwise they are very good for hiking and foot support.

I highly recommend this boot. There are lots of favorable reviews so i decided on them and they are simply great. it honestly felt like i put a recliner on my feet they are so comfortable. The break in time was very very minimal if necessary at all, one week of wearing them to the office on thin carpet and concrete sidewalks, then off to the mountains. Three days and 23 miles of sand, mud, and rugged uphill terrain, zero blisters and the boot still looks great, other than dirty of course. My feet didnt seem to get too hot either, they are breathable. So definitely five stars!!

I just received the boots in the mail. That is why I have only given them a 4 star rating. I will say immediately they feel comfortable, but my big thing is how they hold up. As of right now upon initial inspection they seem to be of good quality, and seem to be of good materials. The product was shipped immediately and actually arrived a day early. The company shipped to Iraq with no problems. I am currently deployed here, that is the reason for the boots, I feel I will be enjoying these boots greatly. I feel I made a good choice, and think they will work just fine. My partner has the Keen Dry boot variant similar to this one that made it through an entire deployment through hills of Afghanistan. That is why I went with Keen. So far so good!! Thanks Keen and Amazon. Well, continued of my previous comment. Thanks to Keen, but no thanks to Amazon! I had some issues with the boot that I had to go to directly to Keen for because Amazon did not want to help me out. I needed them exchanged and I had purchased the product while I was in Iraq. I had since returned to the states and was no longer at the Iraq address. Amazon would not exchange it, because it was not going to the Iraq address, but I had stressed to them that my billing address was the same as the address I needed the replacements sent to. They still said no. Thank goodness to the good customer service of KEEN, but not for AMAZON. I would give AMAZON one star, and KEEN 5 stars.

I have a terrible time finding hiking boots that fit! My feet are normal at the heel, but very wide at the toe, and they never "swoop" in at the end. Most shoes and boots are designed with this stylish "swoop" inward at the toes, which makes the experience like wearing little torture boxes on my duck-like feet. About 6 months ago I bought a pair of Keen Voyager hiking boots at a shoe store. Finding "off the rack" shoes of any type which fit my feet is something of a blessed event. I just ordered my second pair from Amazon. Ive been very happy with my first pair of Keen Voyager hiking boots. Im primarily a desert hiker, so water resistance is not a factor in my rating. Comfort and durability are the most important characteristics, and the Keen boots have shined in these areas. They have performed flawlessly over some very rough, steep terrain in Death Valley National Park. The soles have plenty of grip and the rubber which wraps over the toe offers great protection and superior wear.

While I didnt expect these boots to look like the standard hiking boot, they actually look down- right funky. But despite the oddball appearance of them, they are incredibly comfortable and get even more-so with each wear. From the width of the ball and toe area, to the tongue padding, and the shape and fit around the heel and ankle, these boots were made for wearing. construction is very good, and they are surprisingly light, as they look rather clunky in person. For the average day hike, where you need your feet to breathe, they would be a good fit, they have, however, fabric slits between the oiled leather that would make for a soupy mess, were you to wear these in wet or snowy terrain. for that, Keen makes waterproof models that I am sure are just as comfortable. After over 25yrs of day hiking, these oddball- looking boots by Keen are the most comfortable and durable I have owned.
