Keen Targhee II Hiking Shoes - Women's
Waterproof and versatile, the Keen Targhee II hiking shoes offer multisport utility, dependable protection from the elements and good support to keep you comfortable.

- Removable metatomical EVA footbeds are shaped to provide cushioning and arch support; can also accommodate orthotics
- Dual-density EVA midsoles supply shock absorption and padding for all-day comfort
- Supportive nylon shanks provide torsional stability and protection from uneven terrain
- S3 (shock, suspension, stability) drop-in heel inserts support the feet on impact, dissipate shock and help reduce the chance of twisting an ankle
- Keen Targhee II women's hiking shoes feature nonmarking rubber outsoles with aggressive 4mm multidirectional lugs for reliable traction
- Fit tip: runs about a 1/2 size small

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. :)

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

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

Comments about Keen Targhee II Hiking Shoes - Women's:
I bought these shoes for the fall hiking season. The first weekend I had them I did a 3 mile flat hike and a 5.6 mile hike with 2,281 feet of climbing, the shoes were great. I really love how tough and stiff the soles are, it made hiking on rocky patches a breeze. I also really like the look of them, for a hiking shoe, they look good. I received several comments about how cute they are. I did go up half a size, my feet are normally 7.5-8, I bought 8.5 shoes. Also, the first pair of 8.5 shoes I tried on seemed a hair small and they did put a pressure point on the top of my left foot where the tongue of the shoe sits. Had I bought those, I think it would have been very uncomfortable. I tried on another pair of 8.5 shoes and the pressure point was gone and the size felt slightly roomier. I bought the second pair of 8.5 shoes and haven't regretted it.

Comments about Keen Targhee II Hiking Shoes - Women's:
I lead a hiking tour in Alaska and just a few days prior to departure my regular hikers split a seam. I jumped into REI, tried these on first and took them home. The next day I wore them to the office and on a walk during lunch, then departed on my trip the next day. These were solid shoes that held up to my 16 hour days with clients doing 5-10 miles per day plus activities. At the end of the day my feet weren't sore, sweaty, wet or cold. They took me through low stream crossings on slippery rocks, snowfields, to the edge of a glacier, scree slopes, spongy tundra, and hard pack trails with no issues whatsoever. In addition they were easy to clean off at the end of the day and looked brand new once again. 10 days and my feet never complained!
My only complaint was that if I didn't tie the shoelaces tightly, they seemed to loosen after an hour of hiking.

Comments about Keen Targhee II Hiking Shoes - Women's:
These shoes were an emergency purchase ... my old ones were falling apart and I desperately needed a pair of hiking shoes for the weekend. While I usually like a break in period - it was time to hit the trail. I was amazed at the fit and comfort right out of the box. I had these on my feet for three days of mountain hiking without any discomfort. They repelled water and kept me comfortable - what more can you ask for in a pair of hiking shoes? Love them!
