KEEN  Anchorage IV Waterproof Boots - Men's

These are the only boots I wear and pretty much the only shoe I wear. I work in construction and I'm in and out of peoples houses all the time. The slip-on style makes my life a little easier there. My feet stay snug inside also. I live in Alaska so I wear them year round. They aren't too hot in the summer and as a matter of fact, they are so thin that I didn't realize that they were an insulated boot. I tried to buy a pair a few months ago but REI doesn't sell them in the summer because they are an insulated boot. They last me about 2 years. That's pretty good for a 260lbs. man!

If you love the Anchorage III, then you might not like this IV version. I found the slope on the top of the boot that goes up towards the ankle opening to be very awkward and very tight. I just about broke a sweat trying to get them off and on. They also don't seem as durable as the III. Just my experience. I have been wearing Keens for decades.

I first found a pair of these at a dress for less store and they are are some of the best shoes i've ever owned. I just decided to order a second pair so that I can wear them everyday, alternating between the two. ( I try not to wear the same shoes every day in order to reduce the risk of foot odor and fungus. ) I love these boots so much, i wanted two pairs for this reason. If they last a long time, then Keen has gained a lifelong customer. No more shoe hunting for me. These are my shoes for life. I will come back in a couple years to give a review on longevity. Thank you Keen!

Warm, dry, living up to expectations in Sitka, AK.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Boots are very comfortable, true to size fit & warm. However you cannot stand and slip on , they are pull-ons instead. I currently have an older similar that pair looks nearly the same but you can stand and slip your foot in with no hand assistance. Love those. Just the wrong choice for me.

I have an older pair that i live in. They are my go to winter shoe/boot. I love that I can step into them easily hands-free andd be protected from the snow. They are wonderfully comfortable and warm. I recently went to buy a new pair and found that Keen had changed the style to a much narrower opening that I had to struggle to get on and off. Once on they felt uncomfortably tight around the ankle. I will have to search for another alternative. So sad! Why mess with a good thing?

the boot design has changed. They still fit well but getting them on and off is a little tough. Hoping this improves with break in time will tell.

Boots are an excellent fit and have worn them in rain and snowy conditions. They worked well as both waterproof and hiking boot. Workmanship appears very good to excellent. Have worn them over the last few weeks of February 2026 and they are comfortable, well fitting (size 11) and do the job well. Not insulated but feet have stayed comfortably warm in Low 20s and teens.

Not only are these boots the best out there, but your company is the best!!! I have worn these Keen boots for several years! I have worn them each season here in Maine! Waterproof, warm in the winter, and cool on a summer day working on outside projects…I LOVE THESE BOOTS!!! For Christmas I wanted to buy a pair for my niece. I went everywhere looking for them, no one carried the size I needed. I was told the wait period would be 4-8 weeks!!! So I went to Keen. com, and BAMM!!! I received her boots within a weeks time!!! You are an AMAZING company!! I also wear the mens boot!! You wouldn’t believe the compliments I get!!! I will be ordering a new pair for myself soon! I have literally worn out two pairs so far! The more you wear them, the better they are!!! Thank you so much for your great service!!! They got here quickly, and tracking them was so easy!! You’re the Best!!!

I bought these after jealously looking at everyone else in my home wearing slip on water proof boots. They fit fine, but the finger loops in the boot straps seem a bit small, and I've gotten my digits stuck in them a few times. I would assume that Keen would increase the size of the boot straps along with the size of the shoe. Maybe my fingers are just chubby?
