KEEN  Targhee Apex Waterproof Hiking Boots - Women's

I tried on just about every pair of hoking boots in the store, with the nicest staff member, Michael. finally settled on these Keen boots. Excellent ankle support, toe box is nice and wide, great arch support. I love them and get manycompliments. lighter weight too, super comfortable and sturdy.

While these boots fit the way you want a pair of Keens to fit you, they seem to not be durable. Aside from really showing dirt making them look old when they have only been worn for about 6 weeks the foam is breaking off im chunks around the heel. These boots probably won't hold out through the year.

I bought these boots a week before my trip. I wanted something that had a minimal break in time, lightweight but waterproof, a roomy toe box, and could handle some rougher terrain. I took these out to California, wore them on a few shorter hikes, then wore them to hike up half dome. I didn’t have any blisters and they definitely helped me complete the 17 mile hike. I would highly recommend this for a hiking shoe!

I’m on the fence on how to write this review. I purchased these and wore on a 13 mile backpacking trip without breaking them and they were oh so comfortable, I didn’t even use my camp shoes. But….. after the 2nd time wearing they have chunks missing out of the sole of the heel and toe area. I feel like for this amount of money they should last more than 2 wears.

Comfortable,like waterproof high top sneakers

These boots got me through 295 miles of the central route of the Portugese Camino, without a single blister. For me, they were the right combination of support and yet lighter wieght than my traditional hiking boots. However, they are NOT waterproof! I hiked Mt. Marcy in the rain when I was training for Portugal, and after a few hours of steady rain, they squished with every step. I had three days of rain on the camino, and had a similar experience. I laughed when I was working furiously to dry them out and saw that the lining says "guaranteed waterproof". In addition, once they were wet, they smelled awful!

Wide-feet girlies rejoice!! These have a wider toe box and are not pointy at the toes. I typically buy a half size up to get some extra room but did not need it for these. Cushion and support is great!

This shoe is lightweight on my feet but gives me the support my ankles need to hike inclines. They will get muddy but like the waterproof material and design.

Have only done one hike with these so far, but they were the most comfortable of the 5 pair that I tried on, and provided good ankle support and sole protection on a rocky trail. I hesitated about buying because I didn't like the big purple heel, but then I can't see that when I'm wearing it - I can only see the tops of the shoe.

After two wears both shoes were missing chunks out of the squishy foam sole.
