KEEN Utility Men’s Red Hook Mid Composite Toe Waterproof Work Boots

Great valve for price . Very comfortable with no break in period . Been wearing about two years now . On my fourth pair . The soles wear quicker but that's part of being comfortable as soon as you put on . Keep feet warm and dry in cold weather. Looks good too . Good quality. Only bad thing plastic hooks for laces at top . They do break occasionally although this has not stopped me from repeat orders . Usually by the time they break the sole in worn out .

I have a very hard time finding work boots that fit. I have size 13 (US) feet that are very narrow. Most work boots, especially Keens, seem to be made for more voluminous feet. These ones, however, do fit me well and are comfortable all day. (I do add my own custom insoles)As far as how they hold up; I do commercial flooring so the toes are always the first to go from being dragged on the ground. That said, my first pair lasted almost a year before I had to reinforce the toe with an aftermarket toe protector. I'm on my second pair but have gone through several sets of laces. I'm not sure if it's the quality the laces or if the eyelets on the boots are overly abrasive. I haven't had this problem with other boots. My first pair was actually still going strong after a year. What did them in was the top lace hook snapped, making it impossible to lace all the way to the top. I've read and heard from others that this is a fairly common problem with Keens in general since the hooks are molded plastic instead of metal.The composite toe is nice. It makes the boot lighter and doesn't set off metal detectors. The waterproof membrane never wore out on my first pair. While I work indoors, I still live and work in the PNW so unloading materials outdoors and just walking to and from job sites tested their waterproof capabilities and they never let me down.More than likely I will keep buying these boots as I wear them out. I feel like a year of abuse is fair for the life of a work boot, and with some added toe protection and some extra care when I lace them, I might get more long longevity out of my current pair.

Most comfortable boot I’ve ever used. The only drawback is the tread only lasts 6-8 mos. Comfort is the most important factor to me.

2nd Update: I contacted Keen. They gave me a credit for the value of the boots to buy another pair on their website. I had to add a little to it to get a pair. Nowhere near as comfortable as these but they are well built and sturdy.1st Update: I continued to wear these boots for about another 40 days after the first speed hook broke off. I used the remaining speed hook to double the lace until today it snapped off while I was driving. They looks sharp, so if looks is all you are after and not a daily wear work boot buy them. If you actually plan to work in them buy something else. I’m so disappointed! I’ve worn work boots nearly 40 years, cheap Walmart boots and expensive high end $350 boots. Save your money. A $50 pair of CAT boots from Walmart will last longer than these. I sure was fooled by the last pair of Keens.These are my second pair of Keen boots. I was looking for a comfortable electric safety hazard boot with a composite toe and was very pleased with my fist pair that lasted me 3 years. These were great when I got them last month. Light and comfortable. I was showing them off to my employees and bragging on them.I was a little concerned when I saw the speed hooks were plastic but figured if they were on Keen Boots they must be tested and reliable. I didn’t know they were plastic until I got them. 4 weeks in I was lacing up my boots and “Pop” one of the speed hooks snapped off. Very Disappointing.I can’t afford to buy another pair right now and it is past the 30 day return window so I’ll just have to live with it a while. If not for this they would get 5 stars. Other than the poor quality plastic speed hooks these boots are comfortable and look great. Just be aware that the plastic hooks are subject to snap off.

Keen has always been my go to boot for workThese have a little more style to them yet still as Comfortable as any keen I’ve ever put on my feetI will purchase these again

Love how comfortable they are so far and can’t wait to wear them in more I love the look and style of them a lot very snug

Lightweight boots, but only lasted 1 year. Not breathable boots. My feet sweat pretty bad in them no matter the weather. Would not recommend. They fit great though.

I bought these boots because they have a very soft and squishy sole. My feet are rested after working to 10 hours! My boot size that I ordered was correct at a 10.5 wide, and that is how they are labeled. However they fit like a 9.5 regular. I returned them and ordered an 11.5 wide. They fit! It is like a 10.5 wide. Buyer beware of this sizing issue. I have never in my life worn a 11.5 size shoe or boot.

So far very good boots, comfortable and light in your feet, perfect for warehouse work

Una compra muy satisfactoria, son muy comodas y los materiales son de buena calidad

バイクで使っていますが、強度も十分あり、何より歩きやすいのでワークブーツだというのを感じさせません。良いです。

El articulo es increíble, super comodas, peroooo, la talla del calzado es un número más grande. De ahí en fuera un gran producto
