 Best hiking shoe I've ever worn.Apr 30, 2008
By MF
"FlyGirl"
The only way I can fully describe my admiration for this shoe is with a story. My dad and I go on an annual backpacking trip near his house in Montana. We're pretty serious backpackers - sometimes doing over 30 miles in two days. This past summer I got all my stuff together and flew to Montana to go on the trip but realized the day before that I had forgot my trusty boots. I had no choice but to buy new shoes and backpack with them without breaking them in (breaking cardinal rule # 1 for backpackers). We went with the intent to "take it easy" and planned out a route of 20 miles in three days, but after the first 8 miles my feet were so happy that we extended the trip. It was some of the best packing I've ever done. And not only did I not get any blisters, but I didn't get to the campsite with a fanatical desire to take off my shoes. Since then, I purchased an extra pair of these Keen boots because they make my feet just that happy. :)
Some very cool features are: easy to waterproof - mine never leak, the little eyelits at the top keep your laces snug while you tie, feel more like sneakers than boots, adequate ankle support, VERY light (VERY important after twenty miles of hiking!) and good tread. Cheers!

LOVE THIS SHOEOct 27, 2008
By R. Nobile
I don't think i could ever settle for another shoe. It's the most comfortable shoe I've worn. It has great tred on the bottom for a great grip. It's waterproof so I can tromp around in shallow creeks. Plus, Keen's leathers are all machine washable! It makes for great clean up. Take the footbed out, throw it in the washing machine... just don't throw them in the dryer (can't imagine the heat would be good for the sole.) Great shoe!

Great Boots!Jun 11, 2009
By M. Stroffolino
I wore them for the first time during a trip to Yellowstone and Grand Teton and they were GREAT! I took an extra pair of sneaks with me because I feared I'd have problems because I hadn't worn the boots before. I also had blister bandages. I didn't need any of them!! These boots survived very wet snow, many muddy, flooded paths and Bison Poop! They were so comfy I thought I had replaced the arches with something 'better". I felt very confident on rocky paths. I had to buy 1/2 size bigger then my normal size.
Many of the more expensive boots hurt my feet and/or ankle so I am super pleased with these boots. (though not so pleased about my encounter with the Bison ;) )

Excellent, but order very large!Jun 26, 2009
By BekahKnits
I just bought these, and while I thought I ordered them large enough, I realize I need to go up 1 1/2 or 2 sizes from my normal shoe size, not just a half or one size.
Also, when they first arrive the toe area feels very tight. The padding will expand vertically if you walk around in them a while.
The monument/iguana color is darker than it appears in the picture. The lime green is not bright, it's a "muddy" lime, actually pretty and muted, and more natural looking or "tactical" as my husband would say.
The arch in these boots is very high and gives a firmer support than I expected. Like walking on clouds. I can't wait to try them with my pack.

 Not Waterproof!Oct 20, 2009
By Randy Harmes
I have an old pair of low cut Keen Targhees that are the most comfortable hiking shoes I've ever owned, but no longer waterproof. So I ordered a new pair in the mid height model. After my first walk, my toes are wet from the dew on mown grass. It galls me to have to pay for the shipping to return defective shoes to [...]. If you don't care about waterproof, Keen sells similar non-waterproof boots that cost less than the Targhees. If you do decide to buy them, remember they do run at least a size smaller than your other shoes (even other Keens). Given the waterproof problem and size oddities, I suggest buying them locally where you can try them on and take them back for free when they leak or don't fit.
