KEEN Utility Men's Reno Low Height Soft Toe Flexible Waterproof Athletic Work Shoe

Bought for my husband for work. Composite toe is great as he is a mechanic, waterproof is also a plus, fit as expected tru to size. He has a regular width foot with narrow heals, He says they are very comfortable durable & lighter than steel toe shoes. Would recommend & would. Up again.

I have owned a few Keen footware products over the years. Namely I have some tried and true boots that have held up as being waterproof, comfortable and practical both for Ohio winters when I need to get out in a few inches of snow, or to hike through some soggy trails when backpacking.I wasn't skeptical of these shoes but generally interested in how I'd like them and how they'd function. I have an office job but I have toddlers and like comfort and function over anything else. These shoes are great for keeping my feet try in the soggy spring weather when having to splash and squish through grassy fields with my kids when playing, or some light snow or other outdoor stuff in my urban life.I've had some Merrell, Carhart and Adidas Gore-Tex shoes and currently was using some The North Face Cragstone waterproof shoes. Most the others were geared toward outdoor adventuring and were always good for hiking. These Keen shoes are different but in a good way!They are about the same weight as my Cragstones but they are much more comfortable and easy to get off and on. They fit true for my 10-10.5 US Men's foot size and I feel stable and secure but comfortable. They aren't as snug around the back of my ankle but I feel that this is okay since I won't be using these for hikes with a heavy pack on my back for multiple miles. The insoles are way better than any of my past waterproof shoes. Probably because those are all more firm and maybe meant for hiking and more stability. I know these shoes will be excellent for being a primary winter shoe for me where I can use my standing desk and pad and be comfortable at work.My feet don't get as hot in these as they would in my other past waterproof shoes.They come in a big shoe box with tissue paper stuffed densely in there to keep shape during shipping and transportation. I have no complaints at all with this. I would say these could be multipurpose for many folks. But I wouldn't use these as my first pick and purchase if you only want waterproof shoes for hiking and backpacking. There are more practical options which offer better support in that arena and perhaps higher ankle coverage if you need that.For sure a 5/5 though, I love Keen products and I have to remind myself they aren't cheap, but they've proven to last me and that makes it worth it IMO.I haven't tried these for any disc golfing I sometimes do but I figure they may do well so I don't have to wear my older waterproof Adidas shoes when I'm playing a course with soggy patches of grass in the spring

I wanted to wait several months to see if there would be a change with these shoes but for me there hasn't. Regardless of the socks or the use it has left me with blisters on top of my foot where the very hard and inflexible ribs between the toes and the laces sit. The traction is good, and they are water resistant but I don't understand why they put inflexible hard plastic between the toe and laces?

I like keen for work shoes but the quality ain't here on this set. My shoes came with different size insoles in them. I found this out cause the shoe was uncomfortable to walk in.After finding this I called keen to see what options I had. They told me in a very snarky way that they don't just send out insoles and they didn't sell them separately other than Amazon or shoe suppliers.Pretty much left me no option other than to return the shoes to Amazon.The show it'self is flat and the insoles provide very little arch support.Because they are water resistant they don't breath very well.They are heavy on the feet as well. Quite a work out for the legs.This was my first and last tennis shoe style keen I'll purchase.Poor attention to detail and even worst customer service!

UPDATE 9/18/2023: I just got back from a trip To Buffalo, NY and was able to put these hikers through a better workout at some state parks like Letchworth and Watkins Glen. They were very stable on the sometimes fairly graded paths and my footing always felt solid on loose gravel or wet rocks. They are completely waterproof as advertised and nary a drop penetrated when tromping through some creek beds. My feet never felt fatigued or achy after multiple days and many miles of walking on paved surfaces or though parks.I logged about 5 miles walking on pavement for the initial break-in, and honestly, the first half mile or so felt like I had wood planks strapped to my feet and I thought these were going to be a big mistake. But, I guess the insoles started conforming to my feet because they got more comfortable the longer I walked. They seem pretty wide for regular sizing and have a roomy enough toe box that my feet never felt cramped or squished. These definitely trend against the lightweight soft-soled walking shoes that everybody seems to wear nowadays. These have stiffer uppers and firm rubber soles and weigh in at nearly 1-1/2 pounds per shoe (size 13). Paved walks are one thing, but hopefully I will get them out on some trails soon to see how they perform on rougher terrain. Overall, I am quite happy with the initial quality as they look to be very well constructed with tight stitching and a solid build all around. The sizing is accurate as my usual 13 is a perfect fit.

Fit:These work shoes have a relaxed fit, designed for the wearer to be able to wear thick work socks.While the shoes are relaxed in fit, based off the shoes I was sent, I feel they fit true to size, and I'd recommend you follow the size chart.Cushion:These shoes are all-day comfort. I've worn them for 12+ hours a handful of times, and I feet remained comfortable in them the entire time.Traction:Excellent for any type of warehouse, industrial or even office flooring.Quality:I have no doubt these shoes will hold up for an entire year of daily wear if taken care of.Bottom line:These work shoes are perfect for those who need a work shoe, but don't require a steel toe.5 stars

Great product. Arrived sooner than expected. Happy with service and product.
