I bought these for my wife to wear on a hike up the to top of Hunter Peak in Guadalupe Mountains National Park. The hike is steep, strenuous and rocky, gaining about 2500 vertical feet in five miles or so. My wife was very pleased with the performance of these shoes both on the way up (the slightly easier Tejas trail), and on the way down (the decidedly more difficult Bear Canyon trail). They were stiff enough to not transmit the stony trail to the feet, but not so stiff as to impede climbing, or to be uncomfortable. They had excellent grip in the dry and the wet. They proved to be waterproof when it rained, and look none the worse for the experience.
Wife approved, therefore recommended! :)

I have heel pain from time to time so I need a good shoe. I put these on and there was no brake in time needed, felt good from the start. They look nice to But Do Not by a half size larger like one of the reviewers said I did and they are a little too big and I have to wear heavy socks with them.

I'm on my feet at least 8 hours a day; often up to 14 hours. My feet have never hurt in these. Size is perfect. I work in a restaurant and unfortunatly they are not slip resistant, but they are not designed to be. I would buy one in every color if I could.
Honest reviews on Genoa Peak Waterproof Shoe - Women's by Keen
I have very wide feet and I am a landscaper and hiker. Keen shoes our nice and roomy but I still needed a half size larger. The keen genoa peak wp is a better shoe in my opinion because there is more leather around the toe area which can easily be stretched by a cobbler or your own feet for that matter. I do love these shoes.

I bought a pair of these last year and absolutely loved them. So much so, that I overused them and needed to replace them. I ordered a new pair and found that they didn't have the same support that the first pair did. It feels like the insoles are made of something different in this pair something less dense, maybe. I am an avid keen wearer, so this pair surprised me. Still an nice shoe, but I won't actually use these for day hiking. My 2-year old Bronx actually have better support than these new ones. I suppose I'll need to upgrade to the Targhee before I go out into the trails for more than an hour or two.
