love love love favorite shoes ever

By Ranked #227 - Women's Technical Sandals December 3, 2008

These are my favorite shoes I have ever bought. I bought them 2 summers ago for shoes to wear everyday at the children's day camp I worked at. (I originally saw them on one of my 6 year old girls are got jealous!) Now that I'm getting out a little more my love for them has grown. I wore them on a 15 mile backpacking trip (I know, I know, you should wear boots) and I had no complaints and no blisters. The awesome toecap kept me from stubbing my toe on rocks and allowed me to climb stuff without scraping my toes, something that I worried about with Chaco's.

I have really high arches and when they're bothering me I chose these shoes to wear. The arches aren't super high but very comforting. My laces haven't stretched out too much over the course of 2.5 years either. The shoe itself is tight enough (while still loose and very comfortable on my narrow foot) for me to wear them without the laces drawn on normal day walks to class. They really do adapt to your feet, its amazing.

The coloring has faded a lot but that was expected as I wore them in the river daily for 3 months and was always outside. These suckers have held up so well. I'm going to buy another just so I can have a different color.

My friends claim they are super goofy looking but that's fine because they're the most comfortable shoes I've ever purchased.
It took my feet about 2 weeks of daily wear to get used to the inner sole.

My only gripe (that I really don't even care a lot about) is that they claim to be antimicrobial but even after washing they still smell. But whatever, shoes smell sometimes.

I have worn Keens for about five years and love them. I wear them pretty much everyday. I think they have changed the product because I used to have a problem with the smell and I never do any longer. So you might want to try a new pair.
