    Buty with bardzo mokre

    We have ridden very well with Keen so far because they have a slightly wider cut and the foot has a lot of room. Unfortunately, this is not the case with this model. They are very narrow so a slightly wider foot has no chance of getting in at all - hence the return.

    Pros
    • like it a lot
    Cons
    • Can wear out quickly under heavy use

    The shoes did not come as in the photo

    For some reason the shoes came back to me after I returned them. The main reason I returned them is because they are not the shoes you see in the photo, with a collar and laces for a secure fit, and they seem to be too big for my son!

    Pros
    • The lightweight design makes them easy to carry and move.
    Cons
    • May not be suitable for rocky terrain

    Too high too high

    I love sharp shoes for my son. But this one wasn't a winner. I tried this style and the high top is so high my son couldn't stand on his own.

    Pros
    • The easy-to-use lacing system ensures a secure fit
    Cons
    • May not provide adequate ankle support

    Durable - my new review

    Good sturdy boots. I got this because we bought my daughter little shoes every month because she felt so much for them. These work fine!

    Pros
    • I get what I pay for...
    Cons
    • Don't waste your money.

    Great boots I think

    They appear to be of good quality that can last well over a year or at least until he outgrows them. I hope this is a great shoe for all year except most of the summer and it can take a beating.

    Pros
    • I bought these for my grandson. He says they are comfortable and easy to put on and take off.
    Cons
    • Bought through Prime Wardrobe and RETURNED but still billed

    They differed from the picture shown on ebay, the color was also very different and there were a few color variations. The first pair was too small although we ordered the size my grandson wears. Just not sharp quality.

    Pros
    • The mid-rise model offers extra support and protection for the ankle.
    Cons
    • Possibly not breathable enough

    Very narrow in my review

    The shoe looks great - very stable, etc. It was just not possible for my child to put the shoe on - the opening was much too narrow and stiff. Had to return it!

    Pros
    • Love this product and did 30 hikes in 2022. I will buy again.
    Cons
    • The photo shows the Velcro around the ankle. Large child size 7 had no velcro, only elastic.

    I love sharp boots, good for me

    I've been buying for many years, this is my daughter's first set, they are a bit big but not so big that she can't use them. I ordered brown, they sent grey, my daughter says she likes gray better than brown so it worked. fine

    Pros
    • The padded footbed offers additional comfort and support
    Cons
    • May not be suitable for children who prefer sneakers.

    No velcro is my verdict

    The boots we received are different from the picture. We bought these for our son who loves the Velcro. The boys we received have no thong. They also appear to be a different leather material.

    Pros
    • Easy to clean and maintain
    Cons
    • May not be suitable for children who prefer more colorful shoes.

    Not the KEEN we know - disappointing

    We have been using KEEN on our kids for over 10 years but they have made a difference. These boots are not up to the standard we are used to. The skin looks incredibly artificial and plastic. The Velcro does not stay in place and is shorter than previous KEEN kids' boots. It's also a lot narrower. We are disappointed and are sending them back.

    Pros
    • Boots
    Cons
    • Can't remember

    Perfect for the Pacific Northwest

    These are great all terrain boots for little ones. The grip is one of the best we've found and is perfect for wet environments. Came home from a hike in the rain on a very busy trail and my daughter's feet were warm and dry. I would like to note that while the shoes fit as expected, I wish the opening was a bit larger to allow them to be worn with a pair of thick wool socks on those colder autumn days.

    Pros
    • Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry
    Cons
    • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

    Great with easy modification

    Ideal for long trips to national parks. My daughter loved that she could walk through mud and rain without getting her feet wet. My only issue is Kynes keeps using utterly useless elastic laces! They only serve to prevent the child from putting these boots on (which is almost impossible if I help her). There is a simple solution. We simply cut the elastic and replaced it with regular laces. Now they are perfect! Keep in mind that if you want to keep the elastic laces, you'll need to order a…

    Pros
    • Girl
    Cons
    • Requires outlet
