Keen makes boots and shoes for how your foot was born to be...a wide toebed without a wide heel. I had my L. bunion permanently repaired so I must wear wide-toed shoes. KEEN is the perfect shoe. I use a shoe form with buttons to stretch those little rub spots feet get. I am wearing these boots everyday, all day to break them in for a walking trip to Scotland. They have been wonderful from day one.Won't buy anything but Keens directly from Keens.com. fast delivery.

This particular pair (black waterproof) seemed to have something wrong with the way they fit. I didn’t like the color, but I did like the price. I ordered one waterproof pair and one regular pair that were on sale. The regular pair fitted well and I kept them. I wish the shoelaces were a bit longer. I like the roomy fit that this style provides.

These hikers are OUTSTANDING and most of all comfy. They are extremely WELL MADE with NO FLAWS. Also, they are easy to SLIP in/out of. The tongue movement of the shoe is an ingenious feature. I am SO HAPPY with my new hikers and HIGHLY RECOMMEND these shoes for purchase.Thank You Keen!

My 3d pair. I walk everyday and these are the most comfortable shoes for my troubled feet. I wear them for 3 seasons and in the winter I use a wool insole for extra cushion and warmth. Shoes are not my friend but I have found these the most comfortable. I do so much walking I wear them out twice a year, so I'm glad I can still get them through DSW. I like the magenta laces too, they are especially good in winter weather. I would love a charcoal with magenta laces if you can pass that along. Thank you!
Love my Waterproof Circadias. They do run roomy & true to size. Fit predictor had me size up based on my Merrell size. I felt like returning at the time but kept them. I should have returned. Now that I've broken them in, they feel too big on me. I do have wide feet & often have problems fitting into my true size with everyday shoes. Ill likely buy another pair for hikes & wear the too big ones for gardening & home use.
I've tried these on once since I received them. I bought them as a replacement for the same shoe I've had for a number of years that I absolutely loved. The new shoes, not so much. They are heavy. I mean they weigh a ton. I'm going to try them again around the house before I make my final decision. At this point, I'm disappointed. This is the second pair of Keen's that I've bought as replacements and are more bulky and heavier than the originals.
I live in the mountains of northern new mexico and don't have sidewalks around our house. I'm walk in grass, gravel or dirt/mud to be able to even get to my vehicle. I was a little worried in the beginning about the mesh in the shoes. NO PROBLEM! I've walked thru mud that was almost to the top of the shoe, and my feet never got wet. I ordered my first pair of these shoes almost a year ago and decided I needed another pair just like them so I would never have to be without them. They are also easy to clean up.
Found a pair of these in a local store and brought them home to compare to my Keen Targhee II that I bought a little over a year ago (my 4th pair over the years). I tried them on, one foot in the Targhee the other foot in the Circadia. The Circadia has less arch support and a less cushioned footbed. They might suit someone who only wears them occasionally, but not for a frequent (daily) wearer. They'll be returned.
So comfy. So easy to slip on. It took a day to break the shoe in and they are perfect and incredibly comfortable. I just bought 2 more pairs of their sandals and i can't wait to wear them! Keen is my favorite shoe brand that i just recently discovered! Worth the price to have comfortable, durable shoes.
I’ve been a loyal Keen customer from the very beginning. Over the years I have bought more pairs of shoes, boots, and sandals for myself and my kids than I could begin to recall. I am usually true to the Targhee style, but thought I would try something similar with a bit less aggressive tread for “light duty” walks and hikes. This shoe probably fits that bill. It’s lighter and has a sturdy but more sneaker-like tread. The issue is that Keen recommended half-sizing up, so I did. It was too large so I think it runs true to size. Keen does tend to run a bit short in many styles; in most sandals, a half size up is definitely needed. For the shoes and boots, however, it’s an odd in-between. Your usual size may be tad small but wearable, while the half size up might feel ... MoreI’ve been a loyal Keen customer from the very beginning.

Your usual size may be tad small but wearable, while the half size up might feel slightly sloppy. You’re left to choose which you can deal with. So instead of trying the smaller size and perhaps not getting a good fit again, I decided I would just stick with my tried and true Targhee because I like the shoe and know how it fits. I was stunned to learn that Keen would only do price match, not the same percentage off you ordered at, so it has to be the same shoe. I wish I had known that before taking a chance on a new style. I ended up returning for a refund and buying another brand. Pro tip: if you’re buying from Keen during a sale, be sure you know what you want.
