KEEN Women's Genoa Peak WP Hiking Shoes

By Merebea Danforth April 2, 2009

I think KEEN makes some nice enough shoes, and some interesting designs. I love the rubber protection around the toes, as I'm a bit of a klutz and often stub mine. I have narrow feet, and the Genoa Peak WP are a better fit than some of the other KEENs that I've tried. I think some of their models aren't women's specific, but these are. There are a few things that I'm not too fond of. The heel is not built up high enough in the back, and with more of a running stlye build, your heel is raised and it feels like it may slip out. Also, the KEEN Dry material seems to keep your feet dry from mud, puddles, and wet snow, but it does not breathe very well. Finally, the laces seem slightly too short and thin. All in all, I like these shoes and they will be good for wearing around town and short (few hour) day hikes, but I'm not overly impressed.
