KEEN Men's Voyageur Mid Height Breathable Hiking Boot

Keen Men's Voyageur Mid Hiking Boot,Dark Earth/Burnt Henna,15 M USJust a few years ago I purchased my first real hiking boots in a long, long time. I really didn't need hikers as much as I needed footwear that would keep me warm at an upcoming football bowl game. My team wasn't quite good enough to get a "warm-weather" bowl invitation so I just knew it would be cold. Nothing is worse than sitting in the stands with freezing feet and not being able to do anything about it.I didn't buy my Keen Voyageur's that day. They are too airy and light for such duty. The boots I did buy were from a competitor and they did the job too well. Only problem is that they're only comfortable in cold conditions--at least to me. But they were comfortable, sturdy and delivered exactly what I was looking for.The comfort intrigued me. I have some orthopedic issues as well as knee problems and getting the right footwear is essential. So I went back to the store that sold me my cold-weather hikers and asked what they had in a lightweight boot. The first shoe I was shown was a pair of Keen Voyageurs. I tried them on and it was an "aaaaaah" moment for me. The price wasn't the best but I know that you get what you pay for so I decided to go with the Keens.I wore them almost everywhere. I even wore them to work. Probably not the best choice for office footwear but it was a comfort-first issue for me. One great thing was that I could put my orthotic inserts in after removing the liner that came with them and the fit was perfect. I began to wear them year round. A thicker pair of socks helps ward off the cold in normal activities (don't know how they'd work in a cold stadium...my team hasn't done well lately :^\) and when it's hot as blazes--they're akin to wearing sandals when I wear a thinner sock.I put those boots through the grinder by wearing them as much as 5-6 days a week. I know it wasn't the Appalachian Trail but I still don't know of any boots that would have held up as long as they did without some deterioration. I'm really hard on footwear for the record. While they didn't become unwearable, they did become unsuitable for work.So I went looking for a replacement pair. The store I bought them from originally didn't carry them anymore. That's when I thought of Amazon. Amazon came through for me and even though the price was about the same as the old pair (no fire sale here), the shipping was free. So I pulled the trigger and got my next pair of Voyageurs. The old ones? They are still serving me well as weekend work boots. And the new ones? Not a problem at all...and I wear them to work almost daily. Kudos Keen!

This boot was a great buy. The price is worth the construction and weight. The lightweight boot was nice for the long trip, the flexibility of the sole was a welcome bonus for the long times of sitting, and the venting was excellent. Highly recommend.

These would be the perfect boot had they been narrower or they probably cold be a little smaller as the sizing seems off. II like hiking style boots and they seem very comfortable they are water resistant not water proof but that means they are breathable and my feet aren’t extremely hot. Would give 5 stars if narrower

Comfortable the second you put them on.

Absolute junk boots. Had them for 4 months and the soles are falling apart. Pathetic quality, honestly not sure what happen to keen my last boots lasted almost 2 years.

I have a closet full of hiking/work shoes that have either become unwearable or that I have gotten tired of using Shoe Goo to hold them together. Several of these failed shoes cost more than these Keen Voyageurs which I recently purchased. All of the previous shoes began to fail within the first year of wearing them. So as you might guess I am cautious in expressing unbridled optimism as to the durability of these Keen Voyageurs. The positives right out of the box are they are very comfortable with no points that rub or pinch my feet. ( I did order them 1/2 size larger as my feet are medium width and I wanted to be sure my toes were not pinched.) Also they do actually breathe as the current trend towards waterproof shoes has made it more difficult to find such a shoe though many say they do. The hooks at the top of the boot through which one pulls the shoe strings tight are either plastic or hopefully a higher grade synthetic. So time will tell how these wear but for now the 5 stars covers the fact they fit well and breathe which means my feet are happy campers.

The shoe is comfy right out of the box, I work in a busy emergency department and like many nurses in the trenches that pound pavement 12 hours a day know, your shoes are nothing to skimp on by any means. I find I don’t have to place my orthotic inserts in them to prevent my plantar fasciitis flare ups like I have with other shoe brands. I haven’t experienced the delaminating problems others complain about, I suppose it’s because I don’t use them on rough terrain, they are my work shoe only. They are light and very breathable. My feet don’t ache after a long hard day and that’s an absolute plus from any nurse that has 10, 20, or even 30 years into the grind like me. I would give them 10/10 stars if the option was available! I hope Keen continues this model.

Botas frescas con buena ventilación, tienen buen agarre y cómodas en terrenos empinados y con tierra suelta. Son ligeras y no cansan. Hasta ahora utilizadas en rutas cortas de 1-2horas, pero se sienten cómodas para tenerlas en tramos más largos. Tallas correctas pero más parecidas a número de tenis que en bota.

It's hard to find proper hiking boots that aren't waterproof. Waterproof boots are just too hot and don't breath enough for warm weather. Ironically waterproof boots make your feet wet from sweat. This is why these Keen non-waterproof boots are a great find.I have a wide, squared, toe area and a narrow heal. Until Keen came along I always had to buy boots one size too big in order for my toes to fit. I'm so thankful that a shoe manufacturer came along that built boots differently. Now Keen products are all I wear. Thank-you for saving my feet Keen!

I’m really happy with this product. The fit is excellent. They are comfortable with solid support.

El paquete llegó a tiempo, las botas son robustas y están bien hechas, sólo que el color que se aprecia en las fotografías del producto es más claro (gris - verde olivo)que cómo se ven físicamente. En realidad las botas tienen un tono más oscuro - tendiente hacia el café.

A remake of the populair 2010 model. These ones are made in Thailand and so a bit smaller then the previous model. Still very comfy though.
