        Comments about Keen Targhee II Hiking Shoes - Women's:

        I bought these shoes 1/2 size bigger than my normal size, took out the footbed and added Super Feet. I have arthritis in my big toe which was creating some issues with the rest of my foot and now I feel that my foot is stabilized. And, my toes are no longer cushioned with bandaids! I am back to every day hiking averaging 35 miles a week. Love the wide toe box and the comfort.

          I have a wide foot and am somewhat overweight, so I need good support that fits my foot and keeps me from walking on the sides of my foot. These are great. They felt great the day my husband bought them for me. In fact, I wore them home from the store.

          Bought these for day hiking. I like them and they have lots of room in the toe box but they are being difficult to break in. I would prefer a lighter more flexible shoe.

          Comments about Keen Targhee II Hiking Shoes - Women's:

          I was really excited about these shoes as everyone said Keens have wide toeboxes. I have a slight case of hammertoe so the height of my toes are larger than normal. These shoes seem to have a tight, short toebox height. This is a bit hard to explain. The laces and tongue also dug into the top of my foot while hiking. I think they'd be fine for people with normal feet. :)

                  I love these shoes. I bought them last spring anticipating a trip to Alaska and have used them hiking in Alaska, the Pac NW and on regular walks on an often very muddy dirt path around our local golf course. They keep my feet very dry and comfortable. I tried on 3 or 4 pairs of low hiking shoes before I found these that totally cuddled my feet. That said, while these are prefect for me, they may not be for you. I bought these during a sale last year and really appreciated getting help from the "shoe guy" who gave me tips on how to tell best fit so would also suggest that you go to a store and try different shoes if possible

                    This was my third pair of Keens (also have the Targhee's with mesh and Keen sandals). My original pair of Keens was also bought at REI. They started coming apart (rubber sole was peeling away from the shoe) after less than 1 year of use. I took a picture, submitted a claim to the Keen company directly, and they gave me a voucher for the price of a new pair of Keens! Not only did I get to keep my original, still wearable, Keens, but I got a new pair as well! Amazing customer service from Keen. The shoes themselves are great. I wear them all the time for day hikes, walking the dogs, traveling, you name it. Everyone in my family now has at least one pair of Keens, and everyone loves them. They are super comfortable, have great medial-lateral stability, and good traction when its slippery. Also are waterproof, so splashing through puddles or small streams is no problem. My only minor quibble is I wish Keen would come out with more color combinations for this shoe. I will be buying these shoes again when my most recent pair wears out in a couple years.

                    Comments about Keen Targhee II Hiking Shoes - Women's:

                    These are my second pair of this shoe and I love them. My feet are a little wide- Keens tend to be the only shoe that work for me, and they feel a little tight. They've loosened up over the few weeks I've had them, but are constricting with thick socks. Keep this in mind if you have wide-ish feet like I do. I really wish that outdoor shoe manufacturers would recognize that not ALL women have narrow feet!

                    I love how rigid these are- I always feel supported, but the insoles are still cushy. It's a great combination!

                    The tongue is designed the way it is for water resistance. When the tongue isn't attached like it is, water simply seeps through. The reason you guys are having trouble is that Keens are too wide for your feet.

                    Comments about Keen Targhee II Hiking Shoes - Women's:

                    I'm training for Mt. Kilimanjaro - tried the Solomon Quest which was fantastic boot - but my ankles are super sensitive and I'd be limping after 2 hours. Went into my local REI and this was the only option in rigid, low-rise, waterproof hikers. Lucky for me they were comfortable and I found a pair that fit. I normally wear a 7 or 7.5, but I bought an 8.5 to avoid mashing my toes into the toe-box.

                    The REI guy showed me how to lace them so my heels would stay locked in on the descents - and it works-ish - but it the tongue of the shoe and the tight laces get a bit uncomfortable on long, steep descents - but what hiking shoes don't?

                    I haven't been in wet conditions so can't comment on waterproof-ness of shoes. Just hiked yesterday to a ~35-40 deg summit and my feet were warm enough.

                    These are really a great alternative hiker for those of us who can't wear boots above our ankles.

                      Comments about Keen Targhee II Hiking Shoes - Women's:

                      I have large feet and have struggled to find comfortable shoes with support that will allow me to hike without hip pain post walk. These shoes run wide and have given me much better support than the runners that I have bought for light hiking in the past. Very satisfied with their fit.
