Great boots with a problem
Cooke Harvey2 years ago
I really love these boots for summer hiking and wearing around out in the yard. However, after two weeks the tips have started to fray so I will be returning them. Talked with Keen as I thought they should know since it is a new design and actually as much as I love their boots there company was seemingly uninterested. (I sent them pics.) They grip really well on wet rock, Uhaul ramp and felt secure backpacking in the Catskills. Good fit like my other keens.

Comfortable but not durable
6 months ago
I used these on a relatively normal climb up Bald Mountain in the Uinta Mountains in Utah. while they are very comfortable initially you would think that this would translate into them being a good hiking shoe but that is not what my experience is. The rubber part of the sole started separating from the foam at the end of the hike. This hike is not hard on gear; it just follows a normal path, so there's no reason these shoes should be so delicate. I got a replacement under warranty and the next shoe to the exact same thing so unless you are using these as a daily shoe I wouldn't suggest using them for hiking. They also keep your feet hot because they do not breathe very well.

Great quality boots

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These boots are awesome! They fit true to size. I have wide feet and they fit super comfortably. They are not tight around my feet, but my feet are not loose in them also. These boots feel like they have a good grip around my ankles and they feel sturdy so I wouldn’t hurt my feet/ankles while hiking. I also love the grip on the soles. They’re also great boots for walking my 3 dogs and I will get a lot of use both in everyday life and while hiking.

Pretty spiffy shoes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the KEEN - MEN'S ZIONIC MID WP PrimRosw shoes for my husband. These are mid rise above your ankles shoes. My husband absolutely loves them. They’re so comfortable. He was in a bad work accident years ago and finding shoes that look cool and comfortable at the same time isn’t easy so when I was given the opportunity to try these shoes I jumped on that opportunity quick. These shoes are so vibrant which I liked. He said they were stiff the first couple of days but since breaking them in his feet feel like walking on a cloud. No pain in his arches either which he gets from his work boots. I like that they’re quick drying waterproof shoes. That’s a definite plus to have living here in the south where it rains a lot. I like them so much that I’ll be wearing them too. Just don’t tell my husband 😆 I definitely recommend these shoes made by Keen to all men and women. They have so many cute styles that I recommend checking out their website as well. I guarantee you’ll find something you absolutely love.

Terrible boot in any environment!

I bought these boots in February of this year and they are literally falling apart. I’ve worn them maybe 10 times in the last 9 months for military training and jumping, but I can’t wear them anymore due to the sole falling off. Furthermore, if it’s wet or raining these boots have zero traction on any surface. These are the worst boots for any type of training or serious hiking. I will never buy this brand again and wish I had the receipt and box still, because I would have returned them in June after a few training events.

Good looking, comfortable and super functional
1 year ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Gave this to my boyfriend as a gift, and he loves them.Comfortable and stylish shoes. Who said that hiking boots need to be boring brown. These look awesome and sporty, and are super comfortable. They fit true to size, are light, have great cushioning and support, and excellent traction for the trail.  Best part is that they are waterproof. Nobody wants to walk around with wet feet for miles. These are solid shoes all around.

The most surprising hiking boot
1 year ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recieved the Keen Footwear Zionic Mid WP hiking boots size 10 color Steel Grey/Magnet from Influencer for my honest review. The Keen Footware Zionic Mid WP hiking boots in size 10 in Steel Grey/Magnet color were actually a great surprise. They fit and wear like a hightop tennis shoe. And, unlike a old fashion hiking boot didn't take a month to break in. It took a week of wearing them daily for an hour or so. They have a pillow like insole that doesn't seem to be breaking down at all. The insole feels the same as it did on day 1, I have been wearing these daily for at least an hour for the last month. The traction is amazing, I've been using them while removing really tough weeds and roots in my garden. The last week I've been wearing them for at least 5 hours daily as I have been gardening and have had no issues and haven't had any blisters. I do recommend wearing socks with these boots. These boots also have plenty of toe room.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are so good! Very comfortable, very easy to put on, the fit is very good. Definitely true to size. They are waterproof as well and the quality is incredible! My husband has wore it for hours and said they were great. Besides the color combination looks modern and very easy to make it look stylish too! That is a plus! Definitely recommend!

These fit my feet tighter than the targhee and are much lighter for my everyday use. Waterproof is holding up and the grip is amazing.

Comfort Meets Performance: ZIONIC MID WP Boots Impress
1 year ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had the chance to try out the MEN’S ZIONIC MID WP boots for free thanks to Influenster, and I must say, they’ve exceeded my expectations. The comfort level is exceptional, with no break-in period needed, and they fit like a glove from the first wear. On the trails, the traction is reliable, providing a secure footing across different surfaces. They feel durable enough to handle regular hikes, and the waterproofing effectively keeps moisture out, ensuring dry feet throughout. Overall, these boots offer a great combination of comfort, traction, durability, and waterproof performance, making them a fantastic choice for any hiker.

Rugged comfort and durability
2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We recently bought the Keen Men's Zionic Mid WP hiking boots in the striking Fjord Blue/Evening Primrose color combination for my husband and he loves them . The shoes offer a balance of style and functionality for someone who loves going on hikes or trek’s. Here are some key pointers to consider: * Waterproof Performance: The shoe boasts a dependable waterproof feature, keeping the feet dry and comfortable even in wet condition. * Sturdy Construction: Constructed with high-quality materials, these boots exhibit remarkable durability. The combination of tough leather and reinforced synthetic panels ensures long-lasting performance, withstanding rough terrains and occasional abrasions. * Secure and Supportive Fit: Keen's signature secure fit system ensures that the feet stay firmly in place while providing ample support during extended hikes. The padded ankle collar and tongue add an extra layer of comfort, reducing the risk of discomfort and blisters. * All-Terrain Traction: The aggressive outsole pattern offers exceptional traction on various surfaces, from loose gravel to slippery rocks. This feature instills anti slip or skidding. * Breathability and Moisture Management: Despite being waterproof, these boots manage to maintain a good level of breathability. The moisture-wicking lining helps to keep sweat at bay, preventing your feet from feeling clammy during intense hikes. * Versatile Style: The Fjord Blue/Evening Primrose color combination adds a touch of style to these rugged hiking boots. They look equally stylish on the trails as they do in casual settings. * Toe Protection: My husband always complains about shoes that don’t give good toe protection. But he is extremely happy with the reinforced rubber toe cap that shields the toes from accidental impacts with rocks and roots, providing an extra layer of safety during challenging treks. * True to Size Fit: Keen's sizing is known for its accuracy, ensuring you'll likely find the right fit without needing to size up or down. In conclusion, the Keen Men's Zionic Mid WP hiking boots offer an impressive blend of comfort, durability, and style. Definitely worth trying !!
