Customer Reviews KEEN Targhee II Mid

I find these shoes very comfortable each pair seems to last me about 9 months. I am on my feet all day and when I get home I walk my dog about 2 miles. I am very happy with Keen and Zappos

did not get size I ordered. I need a EE not a wide. this is the second order now that this has been done. when I order you say you have an EE in that size, but you send me a wide. you carry EE because I have bought my keen work boots at store in town in EE. do not substitute order size wide and EE are two different sizes. ill shop elsewhere cause you cant get it right.

Heard about and have seen folks wearing KEEN for quite a while. Decided to take the plunge and went for the Targhee II Mids for hiking. Man, these are incredibly comfortable shoes! Out of the box, these boots felt like they were made for my foot (after reading reviews I ordered 1/2 size larger than normal) and felt like they were already broken-in for me! First hike was through some hard-packed dirt which lead to some muddy trails. On the hard-pack, the boots cushioned well and were comfortable to walk in (we did about 1 mile [1.6km] on the hard-pack). We then turned-off to the trails to see how they faired in the mud. They did very well! No issues climbing or descending down the trails; no issues walking over rocks/flat areas with muddy treads. We did approximately 1 mile/1.6km in the dirt trails. We finished the hike on a paved walking/running/biking trail (about 300-350 meters) and again the boots were extremely comfortable. The hike was cut short as it was super cold and my daughter wanted to get back home (she was wearing her new KEEN Targhee II Mids too!!!)... Clean-up was a little long; used a couple of twigs to clean out the channels on the soles. When we got home we used the garden hose and a spray nozzle to finish cleaning the boots. We will be out again tomorrow for some hiking and planning more before the Christmas break is over. Bottom line: Outstanding comfort; Even the "D" width is pretty wide; Order 1/2 size larger than normal; Excellent performance on all sorts of trails. Also great for walking in the neighborhood, around the mall, or anywhere your heart desires! VIDEO: Attached is a quick video I took on the hike with my new GoPro camera and was still fiddling around with the settings and using the auto-movie maker QUIK. There's a quick part of the video with my daughters' KEEN Targhee II Mids shown (the color is Raven/Opaline).

Finally the correct size for my feet. I have spent the whole Holiday trying to get a Targhee Boot to fit. I have worn Keen's for years & always ordered the same size.....not this year. I went from a Men's 10 med width to an 11 wide!!! Am I alone in this experience?

The shoe is a pleasure to wear, light and easy to lace; the size was very true to my size and have received many compliments from others. During the past weekend, it performed extremely well in the snow, with sure gripping and not getting wet at all.

I am a female with a low-volume foot that is thin at the heel and somewhat wide through the ball/toe area, and I need a stable shoe with strong arch support. I decided to venture into men's hiking boots after having to send back half a dozen failed options in women's, and I'm glad I did. These boots in a men's 8.5 (they run about 1/2 size small) fits my women's 9 foot very well, although I did have to replace the original Keen insole with a Vionic insole for more aggressive arch support. This boot has nice cushioning around the ankle; nothing pinches even when navigating rough terrain. It's a sturdy boot, but not overly stiff. These men's shoes do look a bit "clownish" on my lady feet, but honestly not that much more than the women's Keens I tried before venturing into the men's department... but enough so that I would feel self-conscious wearing shorts with these boots, though.

I'm a female, women's size 12. I was worried any women's hiking boots would be too small and narrow for my feet so I went for the men's. I purchased size 10.5 with medium width and they fit perfectly. Wide enough at the toe for me. These are somewhat heavy for me but worthwhile because of the grip and waterproof protection. No breaking in needed, no blisters on my first wear. These have come on several hikes with me now and I'm very happy with my purchase.

I live in a city that is really cold and gets a moderate amount of snow during winter. My feet are always warm, comfortable and dry in these boots. I've worn out two pairs in the last few years from walking a lot and will definitely be buying another pair to replace them.

Best boots I've ever owned. Light, comfortable and kept me dry through 7 days in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area in Ely, MN. Have been putting them through hell the last week, digging and tearing out sod to create landscape beds as well! Holding up strong.

I love these shoes! They are all I wear, I have walked through two pairs now I am on my third pair now all I have to say is that I love these shoes!

I put over 6000 miles on three pairs of the low-rise targhee II. Decided to try the mid and love them even more for the ankle support on rocky terrain. These are the most comfortable walking shoes I've ever owned. Sadly, they do wear out eventually, but every new pair fits just as well as the first. No break-in period needed.

Love my Keens! I had a pair of the original Targhee Mids, which finally died after many years of abuse and I am looking forward to getting many comfortable, supportive, durable years out of these.

I ordered a 1/2 size up after reading the reviews and that made all the difference. Very comfortable, great looking supportive outdoor shoe! Love me some Keens

These boots are incredible. They're comfy, and they keep your feet super dry!

Great boot, comfortable for everyday use. Great support, water protection, and traction. You can even get by in these with jeans. Only complaint is they get a bit warm even when wearing tube socks.

Excellent boots -- comfortable, light, and dry. Order 1/2 size larger for best fit. Enjoy!

I ordered these shoes one year ago today. I ordered them in anticipation of an upcoming hike in Dec. I wanted to get them and break them in before the hike. To my surprise there was no break-in time. They have been a great all-around shoe for hiking, camping, work and anything else. The only thing that bothered me was about a month into wearing them some of the sole lugs toward the outside of the sole ripped off and the shoe laces didn't hold up that well. The missing lug pieces did not affect the performance of the shoe and I replaced the shoe laces with OD green paracord and everything is still perking right along! Good shoe! Also, toe box is really nice and wide; made a huge difference. Love it! Arch support I cannot weigh in on, as I always remove the factory insole and put my own "Power Step" insert.

I am size 10½, but the Targhee size 11 fit perfectly. They stayed dry going through a 5" deep creek.

These boots are sick! Couldn't be happier with my new Keen's. Bought them the day before I took a week-long trip to Alaska, and even with zero break in they were perfectly comfortable. They've got a great open toe box, easy on and off, they even lace and tie easily with "grabby" lace hooks at the top.

I bought the Keen Targhee II for a hiking trip to Utah and they were super comfy. You forget you have them on. I didn't even need to break them in. The bad? The keen bulbous toe is love it or hate it, but works great on the trail. Order a half size up though because they run small. Terrific shoe!

After trying on a pair of these in a local store, I decided to buy these boots for my trip to Ireland in March. I usually wear a size 11.5 and the store did have that size but it seemed I needed a half size larger. I went to Zappos and ordered the size 12 (for less money!). They fit great and are extremely comfortable. They are the only shoes I took on my Ireland trip where we did a lot of walking and sight seeing. My wife also bought a pair of Keen Voyageurs for the trip. She also likes those boots. We are now sold on Keen, they offer great arch support, are lightweight and very comfortable. I like them so much that I just ordered a pair of Keen shoes to wear to work every day.

This is my fifth pair of Keens, but my first of their boots. Just like all the others, they are the most most comfortable shoes (and boots) I have owned.

Was looking for lightweight hiking books with some ankle support after hiking in Keen's casual shoes in Sedona. These are perfect for what I'll be needing. The support of the sole is quite good. Very happy with them.

These are outstanding shoes for both comfort and function. I wear them in michigan where the winters are long and wet. The Keen Targhee II Mid have helped keep my feet both warm and dry this past winter. This is the second pair I purchased so that I can alternate them every other day.

Great boot, took up to Colorado and never had any issues while wearing the entire time there. Had problems with the previous model (glue and the sole coming apart) but these seem to have been fixed.
