How well do these boots work with snow shoes?

The Keen Hoodoo High Lace Boot is well-constructed, waterproof, and lightly insulated, and it does boast good looks too. In the spectrum of Keen winter boots, though, this one falls slightly more on the “in-town” end. By all means, walk around on a snowy, wet day, or take this boot on a short winter hike or snowshoe jaunt. It’ll work very well for those things. But in our opinion, if you’re thinking about a boot made specifically for serious snowshoeing or long winter hikes, it may be wise to go with something more insulated and burly. If you like the style and fit of Keen, check out the Alaska boot. The Alaska boot has a super-sturdy full-leather upper, waterproof KeenDry membrane, a heat-reflective footbed, and 400g synthetic insulation to fend off the chills. Women tend to appreciate extra warmth in winter boots—ice-cold toes just aren’t fun. So ultimately, it comes down to what you need from your boot: something you’ll usually wear with jeans but could also take a short hike in, or something that’s mostly for winter hiking but also looks okay with jeans?
