KEEN Men's Targhee 3 Rugged Mid Height Waterproof Hiking Boots

I bought these over ten years ago for backpacking, but for the last couple of years I have been wearing them as my everyday shoe because they are so comfortable, and they provide great support. I am sorry to be getting rid of them, but the soles no longer have tread, and some of the stitching is coming apart. Not bad for a decade or more of use.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had many Keen boots along the way. I have a pair of Targhee IV that are very good to walk in. I bought these because they hold my feet well. They come in a wide size which I need. And the soul is what's known as aggressive and I really like this. I can walk and stay up and go up and down hills and Dales and through forest and I can stay connected to the Earth. Not every shoe I have bought to hike in has been as good as this. I'm not really a fan of the modern trail runners used as hiking and backpacking boots. . These hold my feet and it holds to the Earth and my feet don't get nearly as sore or a squashed and narrow foot patterns as many of those trail runners that are supposed to be so good. I live in the southeast. This means that slick rocks roots mud and sand are all over the place when you're going to go out into the woods. And it will make you securely go through it and you won't even realize how tough it would've been in trail runners. To each his own. These are good they're comfortable they keep you secure to the Earth and they don't hurt your feet. Make sure if you've got a little bit water foot go ahead and get the Wides because it is worth it.
