I bought these for a geology field school and even though I realized quickly that geology was not the field for me, i have never regretted this purchase. These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn! When I lived down south, I usually just pulled them out to wear on nasty weather days due to the waterproofing, but now that I live up north I wear them almost every day! They are extremely comfortable, stay on your foot (I have narrow heels), have great arch support and keep my feet dry and warm!! They are great for running errands, site-seeing trips, or climbing up mountains of granite in TX! I find that they run true to size, but if you plan on wearing really thick socks, you might consider going up 1/2 size to compensate.

This is one durable all around outdoor shoe. Very stable and totally waterproof up to the ankles! I have several pairs of Keens, my only concern is these are a little hard on the soles of my feet. At the end of the day my feet are sore on bottom, maybe a little cushioning would help. But overall they are great.
Order 1/2 size bigger than normal.
Best Deals on Keen Women's Targhee II Waterproof Trail Shoe
My wife loves the shoes. Other negative reviews seem to have been based on the slipage from the heel. My wife encoutered the same problem until she put the laces through the loop on the tounge of the shoe and didn't have any more issues with it slipping off her heel. Hope this helps...
Honest reviews on Keen Women's Targhee II Waterproof Trail Shoe
I'm on my second pair of these as I wore the sole off the first pair wearing them day and night for a couple of years. I don't think I'll ever wear anything else. They have great arch support so I don't even have to put my usual supports in. Lots of toe room and great for hiking. No more stubbed toes thanks to the rubber bumper. And they kept my feet warm and dry through rain and snow. No breaking in period either! I own the Keen Newport sandals also and love them as well!

These shoes are excellent for: hiking, trail walking, every day errands, work, leisure, dashing to the car in the rain, snow, and mud. I really like the large toe box. The shoes are comfortable and not too wide. They tend to run a half size small in my experience. I have three pair of Keen sandals, as well as, the variety of Targhees that I've owned. I tend to buy a new pair about every 18 months and then demote the current pair to yard work and "poo-patrol" when picking up after my Yorkies. I love the fact that these are water repelant to water proof. Be sure to read the specs as Keen offers shoes in both models. My preference is the low cut shoe over the ankle height. Just feels better for me. I have experienced ZERO break-in time for this brand of shoe. The color selections are muted and very similar to each other. Get over it...I have yet to see Keen offer a bright blue or red Targhee. (Although that'd be cool. I'm totally all about blue.) The soles of the shoes take a long time to wear as they are made of Vibram. Great stuff. The foot bed is removeable and there is plenty of room for orthodics if you wear them. I have worn out the foot beds and just replaced them with after market variety. The laces are really long so you may either have to cut them down or double-bow tie them. Just something I've noticed over the years. Unless your mom is a totally hip kind of woman, she may not like the look of these shoes, as the toe bumper is quite prominent. My mom thinks these are hideous. Well, if she'd only try a pair and not look at her feet, I think she'd be hooked on the great comfort, weather resilientancy, and did I mention comfort? Give Keens a try. I hope you like them. I sure do.
