KEENMen's Versacore Speed Hiking Shoes, Black/Steel Grey, 9 UK

Hatte mit Wanderschuhen von Keen begonnen und habe jetzt gleich 2x in schwarz und orange die Sneaker gekauft. Top Qualität und Komfort, kein Vergleich zu günstigeren Schuhen, auch nicht der anderen bekannten Marken. Kann also auch generell ich sehr empfehlen 👍🏻

I have somewhat wide feet. They're wide, but not super wide. I've found the toe box on these to be wide and roomy. The insole seems fairly flat to me, which is fine. I purchased these shoes because I wanted a stiffer sole to wear while the turf toe in both feet heal and it seems at least better than most shoes for that, but they're not super stiff. My biggest complaint is the lacing. If the laces aren't tight enough, they become untied often. If I try to get them a little tighter, they quickly become uncomfortable and cut off circulation or cause pain on the top of my foot. I wouldn't recommend them because of this reason, though since everyone's foot has a different shape, it might be fine for you. YMMV

Extremely comfortable!

I have been wearing Keen sandals and water shoes for about 10 years. I really like how durable they are in just about any environment. I walk and jog several miles of trails weekly and need a really durable shoe with a firm sole. With the pavement and off road trails, I wear out the best brands of tennis shoes in a few months. I was exited to try a pair of these hiking shoes.Some of the first things I noticed about these was concerning the looks, weight and sole. I wanted these more to be functional and not fashionable, but I would say these look just as nice as any of my other high end brand athletic shoes. They aren't flashy but that's more my style anyway. Compared to my other Keens, these feel nice and light. The sole is stiff, in the toe area, which is great for me. The cartilage, in my big toe joints, is almost gone. If I don't have a shoe with a nice firm sole, I can have a miserable time on the trails. These are just right and similar to the type of athletic shoes I typically purchase. If the outer sole, on these, is as durable as my other Keens, I will be wearing these for a long while. The upper materials are very light but still seem to be a decent quality. The padding, in the ankle area, is a little thinner than what is common in a lot of athletic shoes. I am not sure how I feel about that, but it hasn't cased any discomfort. The insoles are very easy to remove if you need to add a special insert.Trying these on feels comfortable right off the bat. These size is correct and fits like my other Keens. Absolutely doesn't feel as if I need any break in period. These were good t go right out of the box. The treads grip the trail really well in all conditions. I feel pretty stable and secure during an off road jog on a damp trail. The shoe strings are a nice thicker style that stay tied even if not double knotted. The strings don't slide easily in the holes. This is okay but takes a while to get the shoes adjusted to be comfortable. Even with the ease of removal of the inner sole, they do stay in place during physical activity. My only negative comment would be concerning the tongue. It is a little flimsy and can be annoying if you want to use the farthest holes.Overall. I am very please with the fit, comfort and quality of these hiking shoes. I haven't had them long, but they seem to be a comfortable pair of hiking shoes that should last me a good while. These shoes met my expectations.

Overall, these KEEN Men's Versacore Speed Breathable Vented Comfortable Hiking Shoes are high quality, lightweight walking/hiking shoes. As they arrived in a size 12, I asked my husband to test these out for me. He liked the appearance of this Black/Steel Grey color option (note that they also come in Alloy/Scarlet Ibis, Legion Blue/Antique Moss, and Vapor/Dark Olive) and the good amount of treads on the soles. In terms of fit, he found them true to size and comfortable. After wearing them for the day, he said that he liked how lightweight they felt and how well they handled various rough surfaces. He noted, however, that though these shoes have thick soles and are supportive, they could benefit from a more cushioned insole. All the same, he said that these KEEN Men's Versacore are a great pair of well-made walking/hiking shoes which he would recommend.
