KEENMen's NXIS EVO Waterproof Shoe

Bought a pair of Keen hiking sandals for a trip to Costa Rica. Loved them. Result: bought these waterproof trail runners for a trip to Iceland.There aren't enough good things to say about them. Really amazing shoes. Walked, hiked, ran 90+ miles in the last 9 days. Feet were perfect. Not sore in any way. Totally warm in thin socks with some cold raining weather. Completely waterproof as advertised. Great grip on all kinds of surfaces. Buy some!

Had a pair for 5 months, seem to be durable. Great fit, arch support, and style. Dealt with sore heals until I found these.

Tl;dr - 230lb man on my feet for 10 days across Europe in 90+ degree heat, heavy rain several days, and 10+ miles of walking a day - zero issues. Carrying a heavy backpack full of a complete set of Scuba gear all day, and trekking through the Rain Forrest’s of Costa Rica were also handled with ease. Solid, throughly tested piece of equipment - but with confidence.Our Europe trip had a dark cloud over it - a storm system was moving through Hungary and Austria during our planned vacation. Having had stellar experience with Keen in the past, I looked for a last minute waterproof, yet breathable shoe for the 10 day adventure and settled on this shoe. I ordered it on Amazon Prime, and it showed up just in time for the trip. I didn’t have time to break the shoe in, and wore it the next day to the airport as the only pair of shoes I brought on the trip.The shoes are comfortable, light, absolutely waterproof, have solid traction for on and off road excursions - and they breathe well. Keep in mind, this is a waterproof shoe - if you expect it to breathe like a pair of crocs, or a knit running shoe - those aren’t reasonable expectations. It breathes far better than a pair of leather shoes, and will out perform (breathability) most traditional running/walking shoes that aren’t specifically designed to have high levels of breathability. Given that this is a waterproof shoe - that’s a big deal…. But again, have reasonable expectations.Despite nearly every day being 90+ degrees with tropical levels of humidity, these shoes (with quality wool socks) were never uncomfortably hot and were essentially a non-issue.I’m always impressed with the quality of Keen products, and this continues the trend. I wish they made a “made in America” option for this style of shoe - as their American made lines are a meaningful and worthwhile investment in heightened levels of quality - but I digress.This shoe outperformed my expectations, and was an absolute treat to travel with. Highly recommend.

These are soft and comfortable from the moment you put them on. My feet are in between normal and wide and I often have problems with the fit because of it. These shoes are perfect for me. My personal preference would be for just a touch more arch support (something I can remedy with Superfeet down the road as needed) and a bit less heel slip - I do have narrow heels.But these are the keepers for comfort alone - I can wear them on the street and park as well as hiking. Great product!9/27/2023 Update - just came back from England, Ireland, Scotland trip. Waterproofing is excellent, zero leaks. Traction is excellent - only when I took chances to get a good photo shot and wandered into wet grass on a hill or wet clay did I feel like slipping a bit but I would expect anything but spikes to do that. I was also able to catch myself from falling so traction worked. The comfort just kept getting better and the shoes formed to my feet and I the heels are not slipping as much but still not as tight as I would have liked. Wear is great as well even though I wore them on pavement quite a bit. For comparison, I also used Brooks Ghost 15 gtx and you can see the wear on the bottoms already ( but they were lighter and a touch more comfortable). If I were to bring one pair it would have been Keens without a doubt. I still felt that arch support could be a bit better but have not felt any feet pain so maybe Keen knows something that I don't.

These shoes are what you're probably thinking they are. They're very comfortable, fit well (to-size -- I wear the same size in Keen and Merrell), have an extra roomy toe box without the heel being loose (which I love), supportive enough for all-day hikes, and the waterproofing works well. They're well made, and light-weight with a very grippy outsole.However, they're on-par with the Merrell Moab 2 hiking shoes I also have. They're the only other comparable full-tilt hiking shoe I've owned, so I can only compare them to each other. Both are phenomenal shoes, the most comfortable I've ever worn. The NXIS may be slightly more comfortable than the Moab, but almost negligibly so, both have about equal traction in all terrains, and the Moab has slightly longer outsole lugs, which means they probably will end up lasting longer before traction starts to degrade. Either one is way more comfortable, and has much higher longevity (both lug depth and durability), than the Solomon hikers I had previously.The bottom line, to me, is the price. These are about 40% more expensive than the equivalent Moab 2 shoes are, which are already somewhat pricey. Are they better than the Moab? Maybe. Probably. Are they $50 / 40% better than the Moab? Not at all.So if money is no object and you like the look of these better, get them. If you want to be seen in the 'more expensive' shoe (for what that's worth in your circle), get them. But you probably won't notice any advantage at all over the Moab for your money.

The media could not be loaded. These shoes are great. Weight of a motion control sneaker but the registry of a trail shoe with nice toe protection. I have not yet tested for waterproofing but will report back. The construction and quality of materials seems superior.Toe box isn’t quite as wide as keen hiking boots, but still more forgiving than mainstream running or athletic shoes.Easy to get on and off. Primary usage is a travel outdoor shoe and will put through the paces on a summer Alaska cruise with lots of excursions planned.

A+

Most comfortable shoe I have ever worn, the durability, and very stable. I have flat feet and these are perfect, lots of arch support, and no more sore back

Very high water resistance. Very comfortable. Great shoe for trail running and general use.

Very good comfortable keen shoes, look smart with lovely soul and excellent grip, good shoe lays and very soft interior, ideal for the feet.Love them.
