KEEN Utility Men's Kenton Low Height Composite Toe Work Sneakers

Let me start out by saying I have very wide feet, EE wide. Finding protective toe work shoes is incredibly frustrating for me; easily one of my least favorite tasks, right up there with buying a vehicle from a dealership. I was hesitant to make this purchase online, but couldn't find anything that fit locally. The size is great! When they say wide, they aren't joking. There is zero pressure on my toes from the toe cap, and I was able to wear them comfortably for 10 hours on day one. Zero complaints on comfort or fit. They are lightweight, which I really appreciate being on my feet in a labor-intensive job. The shoe's had very adequate slip resistance when new, though I can't attest to how that holds up now that the treads/soles are caked in asphalt. That brings up the next point; heat resistant soles: I have not noticed any damage to the soles after working several weeks on hot asphalt and using a torch and scraper to remove any uncompacted hot mix asphalt that does get picked up by them when I'm working. While on the topic of soles, and I admit this is niche, if for whatever reason you need to walk across an asphalt mat immediately after it was compacted, the small tread pattern does not mark it. The shoes also stay significantly cooler than boots I've used in the past, which I was expecting and was part of why I chose these shoes. However, I didn't expect he bottoms of my feet to stay so much cooler than in boots I've worn in the past. I'm very impressed with the comfort, weight, and apparent quality. If these hold up reasonably well to the abuse I put them through, I'll buy them again when the time comes.

These have held up very very well. I have beat the heck out of these for three straight years and they’re still comfortable.

Great Keen product. Was looking for a more rugged casual shoe. These soles are very stiff. Hoping they will eventually break but all other aspects are fantastic. Wide toe box, true to size and laces that stay tied. Recommend with jeans or khakis. Good for work or play.

My partner loves them. They’re the most comfortable shoes he’s ever worn he says.

Absolute garbage shoe. If I could rate this with negative stars I would. If you enjoy wearing wooden boxes on your feet, these are the shoes for you. This is not your typical keen shoe, the composite toe makes you feel like you're walking with cloven hoves like a satyr.

I have been wearing steel toes for over42 years. These shoes are the worst ones I ever own. I have worn them daily for 3 weeks and wish I could go to the landfill and find the ones I tossed because they had fallen apart and put them on. Although ugly and worn, they were comfortable. The positive feature of these shoes are that they are light weight due to the composite toe. However, if you have a mid to high arch, the top of the shoe sits on top of your foot. I wear a women’s 10 or a man’s 9. I have tried loosening the shoe laces and I still get a rub. The soles on my feet hurt by the end of a 8-10 hour shift. It is like there is no padding on the insoles. I would not recommend these shoes unless you try them on for size. Due to a family emergency, I haven’t had the time to look for a different pair and chuck these in the trash, But I will do do shortly. I can’t take them anymore.

Great looks and light build

I've worn these shoes for a couple of weeks. I'm on my feet all day running around on the job site. They were reasonably comfortable, but the carbon toe on the right shoe comes back a little far and pressed on the top of the foot. I thought about sending them back but decided to stick it out and see if it would break in. I'm glad I did. On the 4th or 5th day I worked 15 hours and at the end of the day I realized I hadn't thought much about it. Now it doesn't bother me at all, they're super comfortable, and I'm really glad I stuck it out. I walk about 15,000 steps a day so it took a minute to break them in, but I've also spent a lot of money on work shoes and these are the best by far. All the other shoes either fall apart immediately, are uncomfortable, or are big and bulky. I've spent between $60 and $175 so I think this price is fair for what you get. I like the fact that they're low profile and stylish.

I’m a huge fan of Keens and have had more than a dozen pairs over the years. These shoes are nowhere near as comfortable as Keens normally are. There’s not nearly as much support as I’m accustomed to with Keens.

tres legere confortable

安全靴とは思えないぐらい 普通ののスニーカーみたいで カッコいい！

Shoes were obviously worn before. No attempt to even clean the soles and I paid full price for them? The shoes have comfortable insoles. Width is about 11.2cm. Great for my super wide feet. So far feels pretty good. DO BETTER AMAZON.

It’s light for sure , but not that much comfort … but at the end it’s a safety shoes so don’t expect that it will be super comfy
