KEEN Voyageur Hiking Shoe - Women's

Item #KEN0131 | 64 in Stock
5 Star Rating

As comfy as it gets!

By Ranked #220 - Women's Hiking Shoes August 13, 2008

I tried the Keen Targhee II boots first, and they didn't fit my feet well, but these Voyageurs fit like a dream! I took them on their first true trail hike yesterday, and never noticed my feet all day (usually my feet ache a bit after 5-6 miles of hiking).

They aren't 100% waterproof, due to the venting on the sides, but kept my feet dry even though I had to splash through a number of muddy portions of trail, and even manage a few very shallow dips in water as I made my way across a number of small streams. When I intentionally stuck my foot into several inches of water to rinse boggy mud off the top of my boot, however, a little water seeped inside. I'd say they are "waterproof enough" for the nice tradeoff with keeping my feet much cooler than they'd be in most 100% waterproof boots.
