KEEN Men's Targhee 4 Mid Height Durable Comfortable Waterproof Hiking Boots

I buy size 8 shoes but have wide feet, so I bought size 8.5 wide. The toe box was wide enough for me and the length was correct. Also they looked well made and felt comfortable. I really liked the boots but I had to return them because of a problem with one of my ankles. So, I think I will order the same but as a hiking shoe.

Comfortable, well made, wide fit

This must be my 6th pair of Keen boots. If you know them, you will understand. They are very comfy if you have a squarer, broader foot. They are light and comfy and require no breaking in. They don’t last forever, for me, about 3-4 yrs, but you can usually pick them up at a reduced price too.

Nice boots, accurate sizing with a wide fitting

Really comfortable boots out of the box, I don’t have wide feet but suffer with pain in toe joints after a few miles but not with these boots, water proofing holding up well, particularly with the amount of rain we have had, considering buying some Keen shoes for the summer

These are awesome, especially if you have wide feet. I struggle so much with new shoes/boots that these actually bought a tear to my eye when I tried them on.

Great fitting boot if you have wide fitting feet like mine. Not to sure about the quality of the soles though, managed to buy them with some discount which helped though, hence the 4 star rating. If they last more than a year without the soles coming away from the leather then I will upgrade my review to a 4 star rating.

I already possess 3 pairs of Keen boots. Always find them comfortable out of the box. Previously had the Targhee 3 model and tgat didnt disappoint but wanted them in wide fitting which i could only get in Targhee 4. Initially i am very impressed. Will update review when i have a few miles on them but suspect they will be fine.

Passt perfekt und bietet ein sehr gutes Laufgefühl. Beim Kauf ist es enorm wichtig, auf die Größentabelle zu achten, die bei Keen je nach Modell unterschiedlich ist. Ich habe schon über viele Jahre immer wieder Schuhe und Sandalen von Keen gekauft und bin stets sehr zufrieden gewesen: bequem und haltbar, sehr gute Qualität.

An awesome pair of hiking shoes. Very happy with the purchase. The delivery was in a record short time.

KEEN continues to innovate some of the best boots and shoes in the industry from its US based design center, and builds with craftsmanship, durability, eco-friendly PFAS-free materials, and ethical sourcing. Some of their products are US made, but the Targhee series is designed in the US and expertly made first in Cambodia and now in Thailand. The Targhee line is backed by KEEN’s lifetime warranty against delamination and structural failure. I’ve never had to use their warranty personally but KEEN gets consistently good reviews from many customers for their service and for standing behind their products. In determining which Targhee boots I wanted to purchase, I ordered boots from the three available Targhee series II, III, and IV in regular and wide sizes. With regard to fitment, I found the three Targhee boots to run true to size. I’m 5’9” and 180lbs. I normally wear a 10.5R, and found that size the best fit for me after also trying 10W and 10.5W. I’m also not a true W, I just like a little more room. I usually wear lighter socks than many people do (Darn Tough Micro Crew Lite). The Targhee’s already have a bit more room in the toe box than average boots, so keep that in mind if you are between W and R. They all fit me much better than the more narrow European boots like LOWA or ASOLO do. While shopping for boots this year, I tried multiple styles and sizes of these European boots and none of them worked for me at all, they were all too narrow as well as tight and stiff. I also looked at MERELL’s MOAB series, which is a close competitor of the KEEN. The MOABs are comfortable but a bit more sneaker-like, and the quality and aesthetics wasn’t quite to the KEEN standards for a comparable price. Targhee II Second generation of a tried and tested comfortable all-around, multi-use boot with a roomy toe box and reliable KEEN.DRY waterproofing and a lug outsole that grips everything from muddy trail to rock. Not a true rock boot, nor designed for heavy load carrying over rough terrain, but better suited to most general use than a firmer, heavier, dedicated mountaineering boot. A good looking boot that can be worn casually and breaks in quickly and is comfortable immediately. Often available at a discount since there are two subsequent models now available. Cloth nylon lace eyelets and a plastic lace speed-hook. 590g weight each boot. Targhee III Leaned into a sleeker profile, almost 2 oz lighter than the II, or 3 oz lighter than the IV, with a streamlined outsole and midsole. Some synthetic where the II was leather, and leather where II was synthetic. It retains the same waterproofing and all‑terrain traction, yet offers a slightly more versatile profile for both trail and everyday wear. Has the most visible leather of the series. Leather lace eyelets and a metal lace speed-hook. 540g weight each boot, so the III is by far the lightest of the three. Targhee IV Combines the best of both worlds: the II’s supportive yet roomy fit with III’s updates but built taking into account all of what KEEN learned from the prior three iterations of Targhee. The main innovation of this boot is KEEN’s new FUSION construction, which fuses upper and sole without adhesive to prevent delamination, also includes a long‑lasting LuftCell midsole and a rugged outsole designed to outlast its predecessors. The new outsole is also a slightly translucent smoke color vs. the prior opaque black, which looks nice. Three-tone uppers and a lighter olive leather liven and lighten up the appearance. Back to nylon cloth lace eyelets and a metal lace speed-hook. They also gain the weight back the III series dropped. 620 weight each boot, heaviest of the three. While all three KEENs were comfortable right out of the box, I read several reviews about customers adding higher-end KEEN insoles. Subsequently, I bought the K-30, Medium Arch, Outdoor insoles in Large and found them superior to the original insoles. I found they fit precisely after easily trimming to my size along the marked 10.5 line, and provided additional cushion, arch support, and some added lateral stability. While expensive (at a quarter the cost of the boot!!!) the insoles were noticeably better, particularly with gel in the pad and heel. So, should KEEN include them in the first place and just increase the boot price? The original insoles are not bad, just not as good as the upgrades, so it’s hard to say. I’d definitely pay $20 more for the upgrade, but $40 additional as purchased really is a bit much! Also, they weigh the same 57g as the original insoles. In summary, I found things I liked about each of the Targhee models and, while I can appreciate the evolutionary improvements, I’d be happy with any of the three Targhee boots. The Targhee II is a seriously good value since it can often be found at a discount due to newer models being out. The III is noticeably lighter and has a more muted appearance, with more visible leather. However, I ended up keeping the more expensive and heavier IV because of liking the visual style and having an appreciation for the innovations KEEN has made building on their success, and learning from the prior generations. I buy boots very infrequently, so I also didn’t want to save a few bucks and wish I’d gotten the newer model for years after. If you just burn through boots with mileage, the II series is probably where you should look, but you really can’t go wrong with any of the three if something grabs you about one of them. They are all great boots!

Sağlam ve kullanışlı. Tabanı geniş.

Sehr guter Wanderschuh für schmales Geld. Ideal für breite Füße (hat große Zehenbox).
