KEEN Utility Men's Sparta Low Height Alloy Toe ESD Work Shoes

Great value. Stylish and lightweight. They even have static dissipation if you need that. Feet stay relatively cool compared to similar shoes.

I've been wearing Keen work boots and shoes for 8 years now. I've always cycled between the Detroit low and mid for different seasons, but I wanted something a bit more light and airy for the hot summer where my shop typically hits 90-95 by 3pm. Ugh.Out of the box, they fit and feel pretty much like comfy yet sturdy tennis shoes, like new balances. Obviously they weigh a touch more than regular shoes, but not much. Thankfully I haven't REALLY tested the safety toe on these shoes, however I'm assuming they're just as safe as the ones in the Detroit boots which I tested with having a 280lb engine drop from a faulty cherry picker right onto my foot several years back. Ever since that day, I don't risk regular shoes in the shop.The lace holes look to be reliable, possibly even reinforced which was a gripe I had with the Detroit low shoes and their loops that eventually tear. The included laces are a bit dynamic and stay tight without double knotting which is nice. The mesh outer collects dirt like a magnet, but they blow clean with an air gun easily enough.I like these shoes enough and they're comfortable enough where I wear them outside of work plenty. Big part of the reason I stick with Keens that last 2 years instead of something like Redwing that might last longer at the expense of comfort.

I got these as we have a work requirement for safety toe shoes on those uncommon occasions where I head into the warehouse. I'm usually at my desk doing any number of tasks, so I opted for a lightweight alloy toe shoe-- I figure it's like a foam bike helmet. I still have a pair of leather Keen shoes I bought about 10 years ago, so I figured I would give these a shot.The feel is secure, with a bit of roominess in the toe box. I appreciate shoes that don't squish my toes together, because otherwise I get blistered toes. At the same time it doesn't feel like I'm sliding around in the shoes, they feel secure and comfy. I tend to get arch fatigue after long walks (like at trade shows and conventions), and I don't feel the insoles being particularly supportive there, but I don't plan on going to conventions with these.These claim to be rated for ESD, but I don't have an environment designed to take advantage of that feature, and I still get static zaps unless I'm hooked up to an ESD strap. Maybe if I set up a workstation complete with ESD dissipating floor I'll see how effective these shoes are.One thing I wish was better is breathability. The interior turns into a sauna rather easily, compelling me to pull the shoes off and air them out at least once a day. This might be a thing with safety toe work shoes, but it was a bit of a bummer.

Really liked the Keen work shoes.

Bought a pair in January and with in a week the tongue fell off one of the shoes. Dealt with that for 6 months, and then bought a new pair in july....the damn sole is coming off at the heel...never had this happen before.Have bought these shoes and liked them, but when they don't hold up, it's time to move one. I'd be weary of buying these shoes.

These fit well and are very comfortable. They are lightweight and so far have been durable.

I work in a warehouse, and I routinely walk 15+ miles a day. All other steel toe shoes I have tried have made my feet hurt whether it's not enough arch, not enough space in the toe box, not enough cushion, or my heels rub raw. These shoes don't do any of that. They are the most comfortable so far. They have just enough cushion that I can walk all day with little discomfort. And they look great too! I have had more comfortable shoes, but not of the safety variety. I would recommend these shoes to anybody that needs a pair with enough comfortability to get you through a long day, with all of the added safety features included. Overall, I would say this shoe gets a 9/10 from me. Maybe just a little bit extra cushion would be nice, but still very doable.

The grommet holes that your shoe strings go through come out easily and the string will start to tear the shoe material.If you wear a size 12, I recommend you order a 13. Other than that, it’s a fairly comfortable work shoe.

Will recommend this item to others

Working in warehouse walking about 12 to 15 km per day .

Comfy

セーフティシューズの贅沢品ですね何度も買いたいけど値段が・・

2022年の1月10日に購入サイズは他のレビュー通り、0.5cm大きめでぴったりでした。見た目がふつうのスニーカーとほぼ変わらず派手派手しくないところが気に入って使っております。しかし注意が一点写真のようにインソールがガッチリ縫い付けてありましたESDだけの仕様なのかもしれませんがインソール交換予定の方は、購入してから靴の中敷きを確認しておいたほうが良いです。
