KEEN Utility Men's Milwaukee 6" Steel Toe Work Boot

Well, I've worn them all. Danner, Irish Setters Red Wings, Herman, Caterpillar, Wolverine, and these are just brilliant.Design wise, the Keen toe is bomber! It will never wear through even if your last name is Lewinski. I've had high dollar steel toe boots that wear through and I walk around looking like the Terminator with steel showing through but these just keep stepping into the batter's box day after day.Comfort? Great. Not as good as the non steel toe (please bring them back so I can buy 3 pair and be good to go for the next 5+ years) but they will not make your feet/back tired like some other brands I've tried.The steel toe has kept my tender feet safe and I'm thankful to have them especially when dragging a reluctant horse back to his pen and he steps right on the toe box.I'll go through 3 sets of laces before any other part of the boot wears down. The tread wears well, the leather wears well and I can kick the mud out going front or back with vigor knowing I won't hurt the structural integrity of these boots.Get 'em. You won't be disappointed.

I really liked these boots when I first got them. Seemed well made and felt like quality. But one thing I hated was the stiffness in the heel. I had a blister the size of a silver dollar. Had to wear big band aids on my heel. Don't get me wrong, these boots are very comfortable, but you will need to break me in first. Another thing I hated was the eyelets. I NEVER had a pair where the eyelets break. Not even after one, or two years. One broke after one month, the other after the second month. The first was the lace lock. I told myself that will never happen again. Well, guess what. It did, but on the other boot. Now, I'm a bit ticked off. The first one broke after I sat on the floor. The second one was when I was coming down a ladder. I don't know why they broke, but for them to be Keens, and to cost $150 there's no excuse. I had better eyelets from Walmart brand boots. I will try to call customer service to get some kind of compensation, but if I don't these will be the last pair of Keen's I ever buy.Edit: 10/2 changed my review from a three star to a five star. I sent off a warranty claim on their website and within a matter a weeks they approved a $160 credit for a new pair of boots! Keen is awesome in my book and will I continue to buy from them.

Extra wide they mean Xtra. I have a very wide foot, most Xtra wide boots are not wide enough. Iv had to return so many pair because their not wide enough. This is my second pair. Very comfortable very durable. I'm rough on boots at work they get wet an beat up. My last pair lasted almost a year. There's still life left in them tho.As to where other name brand boots have been lucky to last 6 months with no life left. Highly recommended !!

Bought these for work. I'm a mechanic in an industrial Bakery. My job requires a lot of walking, climbing, and crawling under equipment. I bought these because the quality of Duluth Trading Co.'s Grindstone boots seemed to be slipping.So far I am very happy with these boots, they fit well, and the lacing lugs grip the laces so you can adjust the fit just right when you lace them up (i.e.: looser on the bottom set but tight at the top). The only issue 've had with fit and comfort is that the included insole wasn't comfortable (I'm also 6'8" and 300+ lbs. when I'm carrying my tools for work, your mileage may vary), I bought a pair of custom insoles from Red Wing and haven't had any problems since.They are waterproof and have worked well. They held up to being sprayed and splashed with water as well as walking through standing water without a problem. I've also worn them while walking around in snow and slush and my feet stayed dry and warm, and didn't slip on anything except smooth, solid ice.These boots seem very durable. I LOVE the heavy rubber toe cap. I have to crawl under and around machinery, and I tend to drag my toes. The top of the toe box usually starts to get visibly worn after a few weeks and will wear down to the safety toe in about 6 months, but so far the rubber toe on these boots is hardly showing any wear after 2 months.Side note: I ordered these and 2 other pairs of work boots with Prime Wardrobe, I was very satisfied with the whole experience, and being able to try them on was great, especially since I wear a size 14 and boots can be hard to find.

I just got back from working out at sea on a ship for the past 3 months, used these boots every day for 12 hours a day. And I would have to say that these are the best boots that I have ever bought, hands down! They were comfortable right from the start, and they were comfortable when I left the ship for home. One problem I have with work boots is that the deck plates in the engine room will tare up the toes really fast, I've tried using the glue on toe protectors and they always end up falling off. So I'm always looking for boots that have a well protected toe, and these boots held up very well. I also have to step into water every so often when I'm out on deck, so it's important to me to have water proof boots, these worked like a charm, kept my feet nice and dry. It's also a huge plus that the soles are slip resistant, especially when the ship is rocking and rolling in high seas. Would I buy these boots again, you bet! Would I recommend them to someone else, HELL YEA! I've also added photos showing the condition of the boots of 86 days worth of use (12hr days = 1,032hrs).
