KEEN Women's Presidio Casual Comfortable Shoe Review

These shoes are really nice looking. My first impression in putting them on was that the shoe bed is hard and the toe box feels great, but I have worn them for two days, all day, and they are supportive and quite comfortable. I wear size 7M and they are a perfect fit. I’m very pleased with these shoes. They make my feet look small, too. I do recommend these Keen Presidios!

As I was looking for work shoes with leather top for protection, I came across these. I’m on my feet all day at work and these Keen shoes are very comfortable! The come with Arch support, a roomy toe box & are anatomic fit. Highly recommend them. I’m very satisfied with this purchase.

I wore my last pair of Keene Presidio shoes until they fell apart. I walked to and from work 1/2 mile four times a day for nine years until the side of one shoe separated from the rubber and started to let moisture in when it rained. I was so happy with the comfort and durability of the shoe that I replaced it with the same shoe. Black is best for me as it stands out less as a walking show when worn with a suit or dress clothes. The front of the shoe is wide so I wear thick wool socks. This shoe keeps my feet warm and dry year round. I wear them in all weather including light snow.

This s not a pretty shoe!! Unless you’re looking for a shoe that pretty stable. Keen quality and durability is top notch on the “Presidio.” I’m in my early 60’s and consider my self quite active. My feet and knee discomfort are long gone. Definitely a shoe to consider.

My last pair of Keens was about 15 years old and I finally had to replace them because the tread on the bottom was wearing out. So I bought these and I'm just as happy with the new pair as I was with my old pair. The shoes are sturdy and comfortable for walking. I wore them to work a church bazaar and my feet were not sore even after standing for 6 hours. They have a wide toe box, which I like. They also have good arch support.

Updated. Updated AGAIN. BEWARE. They are advertised as 100% leather. They are not. The old style with the leather insole are wonderful and fit the way you'd expect from the old KEEN company. These are not the same. The insole is covered with fabric, and this is the second pair I've had to send back because the insoles are obviously malformed. It's not that the arch support is in the wrong place, it's that the footbed is uneven throughout the shoe, and left and right shoes are lumpy in different places. I can only imagine these creating back injuries and sore feet and legs rather than helping with them the way you used to be able to rely on Keen to do. I used to love this company for it's quality. I really miss it. I have kept trying, hoping to win the lottery and get a pair that came off the assembly line the way they should, or that I'll receive an older pair that's been sitting in some warehouse because no one liked that color or style.I don't care about that, I care about getting through a 8 hour day on my feet for the next 10 years. Few products in my life I truly lament the loss of. Keen is one of them. I am getting tired of playing shoe roulette with Amazon.Gotta work, gotta have shoes to work in. What's the answer, I wonder?I bought a second pair of the brown, supposedly 100% leather version of this shoe. The insole is fabric like the blueberry ones, and foot bed is lumpy and uneven, like the blueberry. I am truly sad. Buying shoes on Amazon is a waste of time unless you enjoy repacking and returning bad merchandise, and Mr. Bezos might consider taking some of his richest man in the world money and doing some quality control. I'll never buy another pair of Keen shoes unless I can try them on first, because the company does no quality control, and neither does Amazon, apparently.Quality is inconsistent between the different colors of this style. The brown version was perfect, the blueberry is bad.Inconsistent quality between the different colors of these shoes. These have to go back. I am sick at heart. Keen used to be the only shoe I would put on my feet for work. Now the quality is so hit and miss I could cry. For years the only shoes I'd wear to work KEEN Voyageur boots, but then the soles started falling apart literally, the different color lugs would just fall out. And then the sides would blow out in a couple of months. Desperate for work shoes I bought the Presidio style in brown, just to take a chance that a different style might be made better, and got a pair of old style reliable KEEN shoes. VICTORY! Putting them on is like hugging your feet.So when the Blueberry went on sale for $88, I bought a pair to put away and save till I have worn out the brown ones. I am on my feet for hours everyday, and walk miles, and climb and move constantly.I am getting too old to deal with inconsistent quality. The Brown Presidio have perfect arch support. Where it's supposed to be, in the arch. The cover of the insole is leather. The same style Blueberry have lumps in the soles at the ball of the of one foot, and the other just doesn't sit right at all. There is no arch support to speak of. The insole is fabric. This is advertised as the same shoe, but it's wrong. And it's going back. So buyer beware. If you can afford to play roulette with your health and your job, go ahead. It might be o.k. IF your back starts to hurt though, it may be the shoes.I don't know what I am going to do now. If anyone has any suggestions for a well made reliable work shoe, or how to tell which styles are worth buying for the price I am listening, because the only thing consistent about KEEN these days is the outrageous price. So disappointed.

My long toes love the extra room! I wasn't sure that I'd like the appearance, but they look fine with my jeans, and I find myself wearing them all the time. They seem to help my skeletal alignment, too. These Keens are definitely worth the price.

I wear a 6.5 in just about every shoe, and these fit true to size. My very favorite thing about them is the huge toe box. I have what I can only describe as claustrophobic toes, and this toe box is seriously like Heaven!I work 10 to 13-hour shifts as a pharmacist (no sitting) and desperately needed more comfortable shoes. I have been wearing (the same) Asics Blur-33s for an embarrassingly long time, and every day that I work my feet, legs, and knees would be in terrible pain. I have many leg issues from birth (antiverted hips, plicae syndrome, and one leg 1/2" longer than the other - those together = pigeon toes, too), so I'm never expecting to be completely comfy after long hours on my feet.These shoes needed no breaking in really, and the first day they were great. My legs and feet felt relieved at long last. However, from the next wear forward they made my feet & ankles (mainly in my Achilles region) hurt worse than the old Asics. My legs still do not hurt after wearing these shoes, but the foot pain kicks in after 4-5 hours. By the end of the day I find myself leaning on the counter for support because the foot pain is unbearable. The ankle rubs a tiny bit funny, but that is probably due to my pigeon toes. Also, I sometimes would feel pressure on the top of my foot right where the shoe starts to slope upward (you can kind of see this in the pictures) - I have a VERY short (from sole to laces) foot, so this was strange to me. Needless to say I switched back to my Asics for my last shift and felt much better!I REALLY wanted to love this shoes. They aren't the prettiest things, but that toe box can't be beat & they seem so sturdy. I got them for super cheap so I will definitely keep them, but I am continuing my search for the perfect long-shift shoe. My physical therapist says I need a stability shoe, so I'm going to start there with a solid tennis shoe.
