Review: Love My Keens - I've been buying Keen's for 16 years now and have gone through dozens of pairs of their hiking shoes. Lately, I have toned down my hiking, but I still like the Keen shoes for daily wear. I am a loyal Keen enthusiast not only because they make a great shoe, but once, in 2012, I had a pair of Targhee II that had a faulty eyelet that broke the first time I wore it. Keen promptly replaced the boots with no questions asked. That action by them made me a Keen customer for life. These Targhee III's are replacing another pair of Targhee III's that will now be relegated to yardwork only. These hiking boots have a relaxed feel - they are light and nimble (not heavy or clunky). I feel comfortable doing anything in these boots and that is why they are what I wear 80% of the time. My wife wears a more, 'traditional', hiking boot and she only wears those on the trail because they do well on the trail, but aren't great anywhere else. These Keens are champs on the trail and perform well in most other situations as well. I love that they are waterproof and that the soles are grippy. I have never lost my footing because of my Keens. If you've never worn Keens before, the toe box is large and roomy. My feet are narrow near the heel and normal up front - these boots are snug on my heel and leave room for my toes. Review: Comfortable, Supportive and Wears Like Iron - This was my first pair of Targhee III mid waterproof boots. I previously wore Targhee II mid waterproof boots but when the III's came out I thought I would give them a try. I have a fairly wide forefoot (D+) but a very skinny heel (AAA). These boots provide plenty of space for wide feet in the toe box but at a the same time the lacing is such that I can snug them up to hold my skinny heels in place without slipping. The comfort is excellent right out of the box and it just gets better as they break in. Ankle support is also excellent with lots of cushioning. The lace loops are more durable than the II's because they are made of leather rather than nylon. I wore these boots almost daily for more than two years with no sign of wear. I also wore them on a long trip to Israel, Egypt and Jordan and they stood up to everything that was thrown at a them. After lots of long hard use one of the soles finally separated from the upper and I had to bid them a fond farewell. I replaced them with another pair of Targhee III's and am looking forward to more years of great service and comfort. ## Features - WATERPROOF & PROTECTION: KEEN.DRY breathable membrane keeps feet dry and comfortable by allowing vapor out without letting water in; Bruise plate for protection on uneven surfaces; High abrasion rubber toe guard for added durability - MATERIAL & CONSCIOUSLY CREATED: Durable premium leather and breathable performance mesh; Quick dry lining for active use; KEEN sources hides from Leather Working Group certified tanneries; Environmentally friendly DWR helps keep leather from drying out - TRACTION: KEEN ALL-TERRAIN rubber provides high traction grip in muddy environments and on rocky surfaces; 4mm multi direction lugs provide optimal traction for sure footing; Non marking rubber outsoles leaves no imprints when walking indoors - SUPPORT & COMFORT: External Support Shank and mid cut height adds balance and ankle support; Heel cradle for stability; Removable footbed with arch support cradles to the foot’s shape; Resilient cushioning doesn’t compress quickly after extended use - FIT & CARE: KEEN Original Fit gives generous space for toes to spread out; Gently brush leather with a soft bristle brush or hand towel to remove loose dirt and debris; Tough stains may require a leather cleaner ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01N23HMEY | | Best Sellers Rank | #39,231 in Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry ( See Top 100 in Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry ) #22 in Men's Hiking Boots | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars (8,182) | | Date First Available | November 7, 2017 | | Department | mens | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item model number | targhee iii mid leather wp-m-M | | Manufacturer | Keen Adults - US SHOES | | Product Dimensions | 10 x 15 x 6 inches; 3.65 Pounds | ## Images ![Men's, Targhee III Waterproof Mid Hiking Boots - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/714uhl2mPsL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love My Keens *by J***K on December 18, 2024* I've been buying Keen's for 16 years now and have gone through dozens of pairs of their hiking shoes.

We work in wet for a few minutes and 75% dry conditions, 6 days a week in dirt and gravel. My wife and I both wear the same style boot. Those are the pros, the cons; average life of the boot is 90 days before they break down at the soles and feet get wet. Rubber Material seam failure, always! This is not something new. We have probably had a dozen pairs each. Durability problems!. Why keep buying them???? Comfortable right out of the box, very short break-in period. They don’t wear out, per-say, sole seams break down. ## Frequently Bought Together - Keen Men's, Targhee III Waterproof Mid Hiking Boots - KEEN Men's Circadia Mid Height Comfortable Waterproof Hiking Boots --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/201879928-mens-targhee-iii-waterproof-mid-hiking-boots](https://www.desertcart.us/products/201879928-mens-targhee-iii-waterproof-mid-hiking-boots) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
