Keen's first closed-toe cycling shoe, the Springwater, offers all the comfort and breathability you expect from Keen sandals but with the protection and support of a full cycling shoe.

  • Durable leather uppers offer casual styling that looks just as good exploring the market as on the bike; 3 rip-and-stick straps secure feet in shoes
  • Webbing wraps around back of heels to comfortably lock heels down for efficiency when pedaling; pull loops aid entry and exit
  • Patented Toe Guards protect feet on and off bike
  • Highly breathable mesh linings are treated with AEGIS Microbe Shield® for resistance to odors created from bacterial growth
  • Metatomical EVA footbeds are shaped to provide ample cushioning and arch support
  • Nonmarking carbon rubber outsoles offer durability; knife-cut siping delivers reliable traction
  • Shoes feature a full-length SPD-compatible plate and a thermoplastic urethane cleat tap plate; cleats are sold separately
  • Please note: Keen has stated that this style runs about a 1/2 size small; choose your size accordingly

Imported.

        Comments about Keen Springwater Bike Shoes - Men's:

        This is my first pair of Keen Shoes, I had an old pair of Shimano bike shoes that needed replacing and wasn't really looking for a pair of Keen Shoes but saw them on the display at REI and asked a clerk for a pair in my size (12) and he said they ran small and narrow. I tried them on and they felt fine, true to size and width. They have three velcro straps easy on and easy off. Took them home put on my SPD cleats and off I went for a couple of hours on the bike. Very comfortable shoes. You can wear right our of the box for riding, I did with no problems and when you're ready for coffee, stop and walk around in them. Although they look heavy and clunky they were actually lighter than the Shimanos I replaced. A big plus for me is the good arch support they have. I had to buy "Super Feet" arch supports for Shimanos. Oh, they have reflective heels too which is cool. I like them.

          Comments about Keen Springwater Bike Shoes - Men's:

          These were expensive, but I love all of my Keen footwear so I took a chance and I'm glad I did. The other guys I ride with paid almost as much and they gripe whenever they have to walk around in their shoes. These are fine to walk in. Although you can feel the cleat, it's less so than with other shoes. They are top notch in comfort and I simply don't notice them when it comes to performance so they must be great. Never had an issue over many miles.

            Comments about Keen Springwater Bike Shoes - Men's:

            This is my first pair of Keen shoes and
            I love them! They are more comfortable than other shoes I have tried. The comfort alone is what made me buy the shoe. The shoe is very well constructed and will last a lifetime. They were a little on the expensive side, but quality costs.

              Comments about Keen Springwater Bike Shoes - Men's:

              I'm starting to collect the gear that will come along for a planned trans am bike ride in 2010. While researching for a multi-purpose bike/hike shoe, I discovered Keen's Springwater.

              At first, I wasn't "keen" on the velcro fasteners, but after thinking about the times I will be putting them on in the early morning of a 75-100 mile ride that awaits, I soon became a fan simply due to the ease + no laces will come undone and find their way to my chain/crank.

              I've been riding with them instead of my bike shoes simply because they are more comfortable. While walking around my stride is not compromised and seldom do I hear the spd cleat reminding me that it's there.

              Worth every penny!
