Traveling by foot? The Keen Women’s Presidio Shoes turn long urban treks into delightful romps through town. Water-resistant leather uppers let you carry on after a misstep into a London puddle or a stroll through a rainy South American street. Odor-controlling leather and moisture-wicking synthetic linings keep your feet non-offensive, dry, and blister-free. Keen’s Metatomical EVA footbeds support and cushion with each step, so don’t stop ’til you’ve seen everything there is to see.
I think the Keens are so cute, but they fit really weird. I would try them on before you buy them. Most shoes fit great, but these just don't fit well at all.
I absolutely love them! Adore them! They added a much needed lift to my "athletic/chic-casual" shoe collection. Got tomato and get compliments every time I put them on. I have a wide foot and order half size larger (because it was my only choice at the time) but they fit wonderfully. ..If the green ones were in, I would probably order them today!
These have been comfortable from the beginning and are great shoes for kicking around. They are comfortable and durable and look good with jeans or khakis. I've had good success with Keen's in general. These seem to fit true to size with a lightweight sock. If you wear thick socks, you might want to go up a 1/2 size.
I was very excited to find a pair of casual, yet supportive, shoes with contrasting stitching and soles (bought black). I hate all-black shoes so these were perfect. I first got size 7 (wear 7's in other shoes), but they were a tad small. Got 7 1/2, and they're a tad too big. Too bad they don't come in 7 1/4!
The look is casual but dressy - can easily shift from jeans at a cafe to a mild hike in the trails. And being weather resistant is great, as I commute to work by bike.
The reasons why I didn't give 5 stars are: 1) there was a break-in time, the leather at the back of the heel is rather stiff and rubbed my skin for some time, 2) smudges of glue are all around the toe which makes them look poor quality.
After spending most of last summer in Keen sandals, I knew that for an upcoming, walking-heavy vacation I wanted Keen. The Presidio is a very comfortable shoe! I will say, though, that they took a few days of breaking in to truly fit like a glove. Initially, my left shoe rubbed my ankle and the right one bent into the top of my foot. Within a few days,this started to dissipate, and now they are supremely comfortable. As is typical with Keen, I am wearing a half-size larger than my normal size. I have a hard time finding comfortable shoes, so endorsements like this don't come often. The only other shoes I wear on a regular basis are Danskos.
Is this a good shoe for a walking in Ireland. I need water resistance, ability to add my custom orthodic, can wear a warm sock. how much bigger do I go?
I just spent 2 weeks walking through Germany and Austria in rain, heat, and cool temperatures The shoes are wonderful! Waterproof, warm, and so comfortable-my feet have never been happier! They are undoubtedly the most confortable shoes for walking I have ever owned. I have already bought another pair in another color, and I'm thinking about buying Keen winter boots as well!
My 3rd pair of Keens. Love them. These are comfortable from the get go. Wear them all the time. True to size. I purchased the walnut color and they go with everything! Even my Orthodist commented about the construction!
Very versatile with many styles, black looks great. Will get walnut when they have it. True to size, I wear a 7 1/2 M and the 7 1/2 fit great. At first was worried they would rub my anklebone but they don't. I am a Keen girl- also have Newports and love them.
I worried about ordering on-line but figured it worth the risk at such a good price. I ordered my usual size....perfect fit! I wanted something for the winter to wear when it it cold and damp but don't necessarily need boots. They more than do the job. My feet stay warm and dry without wearing heavy socks. I'm hooked!
love the presidios!! i have two pairs (port royal and midnight colors) and they are by far the most comfortable shoe i've worn. I have wide, square toes and chronically sore heels and these are perfect for my feet. the sizing can be little iffy and i've exchanged one pair for a problem with the base of the tongue pressing on the top of my foot, but it was worth the extra time to deal with the issues. hope to get other colors soon!
Good question. Recently I went through two airport security checks and both times there was a ring. I has nothing on me that was metal, except I had Keen hiking shoes both times. The guard frisked me but always came up empty handed!! I suppose that it couls have been the shoes and nobody ever thought to ask me to take them off!!
Love the KEENS!!! I have a wider foot and often shoes will squeeze my toes, not the KEENS, they are VERY comfy and look great (I get compliments for my red ones a bunch). They are very comfortable and they will be perfect for autumn weather since they keep your toes nice and warm. I also felt that they are true to size. My Mom, who has a normal/narrow foot (but the same length than me) tried them on and they were too wide for her.
I ordered them (Presidios) on Friday afternoon, and they appeared at my door step on the following Tuesday--and that's with free shipping! They fit perfectly right out of the box, just like my brown ones. I'm a teacher, so I'm on my feet all day, and I walk a lot too. I love the roomy toe box. These shoes have been great for me.
I own these shoes in Tomato. They were comfortable right out of the box. I also ordered them in black. The black shoes seemed to feel a little shorter than the Tomato, not sure why. I love these shoes and look forward to ordering many more Keen shoes in the future. They are the most comfortable shoes I own.
I LOVE THESE SHOES!!!!!!!!!! I took them out of the box and took a long walk. Perfect! I want every color now. If you have narrow feet you might want to wear fat socks. I LOVE THESE SHOES!!!!!!!!!!
These are the first pair of Keen shoes that I've gotten aside from some sandals and I love them. I usually have a hard time finding comfortable shoes that don't hurt my feet but I've worn these walking all day and my feet never hurt! Mine are the black color and they have a light teal stitching- cute colors, especially for someone who's favorite color is teal.
I now want the port royale- get a size 10 in stock!
I HAVE THIS SHOE IN BOTH BROWN AND BLACK. TOTALLY LOVE THEM! TOOK 1 DAY TO BRAKE IN AND NOW I HATE TAKING THEM OFF! - DONT FORGET ABOUT THE SANDLES IF YOUR IN NEED. WALKED THE NARROWS IN ZIONS NP WITH THOES AND NEVER HAD A PROBLEM! WHAT A FANTASTIC SHOE COMPANY!!! THANKS KEEN

I bought two pairs of Keens. Briggs (black) and Presidio (Tomato)(I bought a pair of Keen sandal 2 years ago too, that's how I fell in love with Keens). They are awesome. I love them. They are very comfortable, light and have a very good arch support. I have naturally wide feet, so not many shoes are comfortable for me. But these ones are wonderful! The colour of the red (Tomato) presidio is gorgeous. Wear them, you get lots of compliments. I usually wear size 5.5, but I ordered these ones size 6, because other reviews said that they are one size smaller than standard sizes. They fit perfectly with thick socks, but a little bit loose with thin socks. Anyway, if you're looking for comfortable casual shoes, I highly recommend these Keens.
I bought the Tomato Presidio. I also bought a pair of Briggs in black. I love them. I have wide feet naturally and usually have hard time to find comfortable shoes. Keens are perfect for me. I bought a pair of Keen sandals last yeas and that's how I fell in love with Keen. That's why I went crazy this year and bought two at the same time!
These are a great pair of shoes for wearing round town, splashing in puddles, snow - you name it! Your feet will stay comfy and dry. They run true to size with a mid-weight sock. Go great with jeans, khakis whatever - well, maybe not a skirt or dress :) oh yeah,they are light weight and not at all klunky.
I've worn these shoes almost daily for almost a year now and they still look and feel great. They are supportive and comfortable enough for hiking, look good enough for the office, and the best part is that because they're all leather, they are waterproof. I wear them to cycle-commute on the west coast and always arrive at work with dry feet, even if the rest of me's soaked! And even at a year old, I still get compliments on them almost weekly. I expect they'll last another couple of years yet, and when they do go, I plan to buy the same pair.
I shopped online extensively for a nice looking yet comfortable shoe. I decided to give these a shot and was not disappointed. I bought the brown ones when summer started and found them to be stylish and extremely comfortable! I bought a pair of black ones since I could not go wrong with these. These shoes are worth every penny and then some. So...., I bought a pair for my husband, who loves his pair as well! Awsome shoe!
I have several pairs of Keens that I where each week; I change out for the style and color. I currently have two pairs of presidios and they are my favorites so far. They never feel like you have to wear them for awhile to break them in, have a wide toe bed (so no squishing your toes by the end of the day), and have decent support. As with all the Keens I have owned, these run about a 1/2 size small (so order up)
These are some of the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned!...however, I walk on the outside of my feet and the heals in both of my shoes are completely warn out!!! No rubber left! and Ive only been wearing them 10 months!... I wear them to work almost every day, so they get used a lot, but in my opinion they should have lasted longer. So if you walk more flat footed than me, you might be ok.
Just bought these to replace my last pair of Keens that I have been wearing for 4 years. (They still looked great, but I thought I deserved a new pair). I love them. Perfect every day shoe. Very comfy, fit my wide feet well and even accomodate my orthotics when I remember to put them in. I am forever a Keen girl!
I already had them in brown. Totally comfortable, great for someone with high arches, look great. The blue color is great although doesn't match as many things as I expected.
This is my second pair of these shoes. I bought the first somewhere else for a lot more. The price is fantastic. I bought my usual size and they fit great. I have a wide foot and the toe box on these is perfect. I'm on my feet all day as a teacher and these shoes are WONDERFUL!
This shoe is really stylish and comfy. I'm a huge fan of Keen but this has to be my favorite casual one, for both style and comfort that I've ever tried. seriously. thanks!
I'm just about to by my second pair of Keen Presidio's. My first has worn out, but they're still so comfortable.
I wore them everyday for 5 months of hiking (to the top of Half Dome in Yosemite, through the Canadian Rockies and throughout Africa). My feet never hurt once and I never had to "break them in".
I have tried many different Keen shoes and I really like Presidio best. I got them in color port royale and have gotten many compliments. There is no break in period at all. They have moderate arch support, good toe room, and you can take out the insole if you want to wear your own orthotics. I am on my feet a lot during the day and my feet does not get tired at all.
I was looking for a winter shoe, leather etc. I have never worn a Keen shoe before. These shoes were the most comfortable shoes right out of the box. I have worn them every day since i got them and i am on my feet all day. Not once have my feet hurt. Love these shoes.
I love the arch support of these Keen shoes. I already owned a brown pair of this shoe. These shoes and my Keen sandals are all extremely comfortable. I walk daily and they are great for walking.
I loved the look of these shoes and waited quite a while before my size came in. I love the roomy toebox but I also feel like I am wearing a recycled tire. They are bare bones, no real cushioning to speak of and maybe that is the point. If it is, I missed it.
These are by far some of the best shoes I've ever had. I work long hours on my feet and they also have the versatility for just about anything else!...Hands down...best shoe Keen makes.
