25 customers mention4 positive21 negative

Customers are disappointed with the slip resistance of the shoes. They mention that the laces never stay tight and always come loose as the day goes on. The back heel party slips because of the pull cord laces. They also say that the shoes are not as slip resistant as they would like them to be, and the tread is literally falling off.

"...I find that the laces would get loose as soon as I start walking, and I have to bend down and adjust / re-tighten the lace again...." Read more

"...The drawstring lace is a neat idea, but doesn't hold tight well. They come loose often. The laces on mine have also broken already...." Read more

"...The only thing is that they are not as slip resistant as I would like them to be...." Read more

Love how they fit and how comfortable they are.

I absolutely love this safety shoes. They look like hiking sneakers, so very sporty vs regular men steel toe boots. A huge plus if you are girly type like me ;) and also the fact that they don't have laces makes them even more perfect.

I was forced to buy steel toe shoes for my new Contractor job. After being in the NAVY wearing manly steel toe boots for 7yrs I was not happy with this news. So I got on Amazon, did some research and found this Shoes.

I was very skeptical bc I wear a size 5 in women's shoes, so it is very difficult as it is in person to buy or find shoes that fit me, imagine online?
But I wanted something that was not manly looking and definitely did not want any shoe to be ankle or higher than.

I read a couple of reviews about this shoe that made me decide for them.

Those reviews did not lie and they were:

#1) Make sure you get at least half a size bigger, since its steel toe and they wont give in.
#2 They are extremely comfortable.

After a motorcycle accident, my legs get swollen and feel heavy when I stand or walk for too long. So finding a shoe that would not aggravate this issue was a major concern and challenge. These Keen's are extremely comfortable and super light weight. I can wear them all day long, walk and run and my legs feel like I did nothing. It really helps me with my circulation problem, so my legs WHILE WEARING THEM for 8hrs of work and sometimes more than 10hrs long, feel like I have been resting them and have not yet gotten swollen.

I bought mine 5.5, so half a size bigger and they fitted perfectly. Also remember, if you live on a cold place where you need thick socks half a size to 1 size bigger is the way to go. I have been using these shoes for 3 months and I really love them.

This is just my experience. I'm not saying my problem went away. If I do prolong standing, cleaning all day at home, walking at the mall or running with any of my other sneakers/shoes/sandals I still get that heavy feeling on my legs and they still get swollen. But not when I wear these Keen shoes.

I hope this review helps.

First pair of steel toe shoes, so I don't really have anything to compare them to, but I can say that I love my pair of Keens! I'm currently working part-time as a painter for my college while I'm working on an MFA. We are required to wear steel-toe shoes and I wanted to save up to buy a nice pair. None of the sporting good stores in my area had any shoes in my size, and in most cases they didn't even carry women's, only men's. I'm very pleased with my shoes, they were well worth the investment! As of now I've had them for about 3 months and they are holding up really well. Before I had these I was just wearing some canvass tennis shoes and I went through two pairs in a three month period when I worked full time over the summer break, and most of the wear was just from the walk across campus to the shop! These Keens have a nice thick sole that, from what I can tell, haven't worn down at all quite yet- plus the thickness adds maybe 1-1 1/2 inches which I like since I'm on the shorter side :) They are very comfortable though they did take a few days to break in. They take some getting used to, at least they did for me since I was not used to wearing steel-toes, but I've found that they aren't too cumbersome for stairs or ladder work, which I do quite a bit of! I also love that the design isn't overtly girly, but has just a slight hint of femininity to it. Wouldn't give them up for anything!

Fits my feet well, heavy, but the easy pull tab that holds on to the laces didn't work on my first pair.

Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2016

I have to wear safety shoes / steel toe shoes whenever I visit manufacturing plants - we make consumer products all over the US and globally. My last pair was never comfortable and I decided to get these Keens since I know Keens makes great hiking shoes and boots.

I purchased these since these are a lot more breathable than regular leather shoes. I wore these shoes for the first time all week and they are tolerable. They still felt heavy, but the fit is comfy and I did not get any blisters or pinch points. I added an insert for the heel and arch support. The soles are rather hard / inflexible but it did not cause any pain after wearing it for the day.

Unfortunately, the problem I have is the lacing system. It's easy to use - that's another reason I picked these shoes in the first place. However, the locking tab that holds the laces tight would not stay in place. I find that the laces would get loose as soon as I start walking, and I have to bend down and adjust / re-tighten the lace again. It is very annoying to say the least. I contacted AMZ chat and was able to send it back it to exchange for another pair. I haven't had to walk in the new pair yet. Hopefully the new pair has a functional lace closure.

Update: I got a replacement pair but it still has the same problem with the locking tab. Very disappointed. I bought a no tie shoelace to replace the defective one myself.

These shoes are great! I'm a female biologist and often am required to wear steel toes for working in oilfields and construction zones. Good steel toe shoes and boots for women are a lot harder to find. Most companies don't make them, or the selection is ver limited, and men's shoes/boots just don't fit right and leave your feet feeling super sore. Leave it to Keen to fill this void and consider the lady workers. They are very well built and I've been able to wear them all week, walking 5-6 miles and doing a lot of shoveling and digging. No blisters, no sore feet, no need for breaking in or special insoles. I also love the drawstring style laces. It eliminates the safety hazard and inconvenience of untied shoelaces and lets me be able to slip them on/off easily. Just be aware that they do seem to fit a bit large. I usually wear a womens size 9, so that's what I first ordered and they were just a bit too big to be comfortable. I decided to send them back and try an 8.5 instead of trying to modify them with inserts. The 8.5's are perfect.

Awesome for working where steel toe is required but temperature is high! Worked outdoors in the summer but needed safety toes and these were a lifesaver. Also on my feet for 12h a day and these greatly minimized foot soreness as experienced with some other footwear.
