Review on πŸ‘ž Black Waterproof Casual Men's Shoes - KEEN Austin by Prem Reyel

Replace the laces!: Shoes

The shoes came with laces that didn't match the color of the product photos. The laces were too short. The eyelets were not polished properly, causing the laces to wear out after less than 1 month of daily wear. I ended up buying a pair of new waxed round laces for classic oxford boots (44 inches/111 cm long). The new laces were a much better color and correct length than the original laces. I had to remove the rough grommets to keep the new laces from fraying. After the modifications the shoe was ok but I still don't like them. Arch support could be better and styling could be improved. I don't like the gray part of the sole where it meets the tip. Given the build quality, I'm concerned about how they will hold up over time. Keane really needs to review the quality control procedures during the production process and select the best laces for these shoes.
