Nice durable hiking shoes

By E. Stiers Ranked #560 - Men's Hiking Shoes August 3, 2007

These are solid hiking shoes. I took them to Costa Rica and they performed marvelously. They have a rugged tread on the bottom, and the open lacing system gives them a cool sandal-hybrid appearance. However, before you purchase them, be aware of the following:
-- The "charcoal" color is not really charcoal, it's a dark green color. This is not apparent in the picture and a little misleading
-- They take a LONG TIME to dry once they get wet. The leather is waterproof and there is a neoprene sock material inside the shoe, which makes them more versatile when hiking in water or wet environments. But once they were submerged in water, it took them a good 2-3 days to dry out.
-- They run very true to size. I wear a 12 in almost every shoe brand, and the 12 fit me just fine.
In all, these are great shoes by a great company you can really trust in. Keen makes great shoes. If you're looking for a less traditional hiking shoe that is versatile enough to wear on the trail and off, this rugged sandal hybrid is for you.
