Product Description

What we love most about hiking fast is experiencing more things. More sunrises from the overlook, more high fives at the summit, more post-hike tea with friends back at the parking lot. And more terrain — asphalt to trail to scree to stone steps. So, we took the room-for-your-toes comfort, protection, and stability of our iconic women’s hiking shoe and gave it a women’s running shoe feel with a waterproof, engineered knit upper and all-terrain tread. The NXIS EVO waterproof hiking boots for women are built off KEEN's traditional wider footwear form. KEEN is a values-led, family-owned maker of original hybrid footwear for working and playing outside. Since 2003, KEEN has been consciously creating sandals, boots, shoes, and sneakers on its mission to make the outdoors more accessible for everyone. Every KEEN product is Consciously Created to help leave the planet better than we found it.

5.0 out of 5 stars So comfortable for heel spur+ plantar fascia
Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2024
Size: 7Color: Fawn/Peach WhipVerified Purchase
It does take patience. Lots of pain and very narrow until it wore in. But worth it once it’s stretched. Really good support. I usually buy a 7 in all shoes because I am a 6.5M to 6.5W. Everytime you wear it, even around the house or sitting, it stretches a bit.

I bought this last minute for a trip to the rainforest. I removed the insert and added my orthopedist’s heel spur + plantar fascia support inserts.

Day 1= wore it an hour around apartment and local errands in NyC. It was so tight overall for wide feet and hurt alot. I was very worried bc it was indeed a very tight fit but my toes had enough room at the end of the shoes - not too much space but not squashed.
day2: wore it on four hour flight plus probably the entire day including traveling in cars— it was looser but hurt just sitting down because it was too tight for wide feet.
Week 1: wore it 1X on a 6AM-11AM birdwatching hike on mostly flat trail in light rain and it was fine (I did have to take out my heel to ease pain every hour or so)
Week 2: wore it daily in rainforest — usually on mostly flat trail paths that wraps around a mountain on grass, slate, and some inclines for 2-3 hour hikes daily with minimal discomfort— even on rainy days. Even with plantar fascia and a resolved heel spur flareup, with stretching across different terrain, the discomfort of “new hiking shoes” improved day by day. Not constricting like on day 1-2.
Week 3: back in NYC and wore it out of sheer laziness of not wanting to wear work shoes for one mile walks to/from subway and errands. Barely notice these shoes are on my feet. Much better stability and support than my super chunky Pumas.

3.0 out of 5 stars Shoe rubs on outside of right ankle... bummer..
Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2023
Size: 7.5Color: Steel Grey/English LavenderVerified Purchase
Glad they were on sale 50% off... a customer shouldn't have do the following to make them comfortable and pain free... See below..
I have bought Keen's for years. I buy them because of the wide toe box. The hiking boots usually rub on the back of my ankle. This is remedied by pounding with a rubber mallet to soften. This pair rubs on the outside of my right ankle, not the left. I have used the mallet... now I will put in a vise to soften and keep my fingers x'd .
The foot support is awesome.. hope I can remedy and not return these.
Shoe strings are a bit short ... barely able to do a double tie... They are slippery... not much grip.... They don't stay tied.. so double tie is necessary or else you will be stopping frequently to retire...

Size: 10.5Color: Fawn/Peach WhipVerified Purchase
We are a big Keen family and these newest shoes are no different. I require a wide toe box, and some reviews state these are narrow. I did Not find that to be the case.

Also, we ordered these right before a trip to Peru and they were exactly what we wanted. That perfect combo of hiking, activity, and waterproof comfort! We hiked Machu Picchu out of the box and both of us had a comfortable, effortless hike. Light, not too hot for a waterproof shoe, super flexible. Love them!

1.0 out of 5 stars Size too small
Reviewed in the United States on May 23, 2023
Size: 9Color: Vintage Indigo/Peachy KeenVerified Purchase
I really was looking forward to receiving these hiking shoes and I ordered my usual shoe size 8 1/2. I have two other pairs of Keen - one a shoe and the other sandals - both in 8 1/2 and they fit perfectly. Upon receiving these shoes, it was like trying to squeeze my foot into a size 8 - too short! I decided to return and order a size 9. I had no problem getting them on, toes right at the end of the shoe and had on a thin pair of socks but after walking around the house about 15 minutes, my toes felt cramped and there was no way I could hike up & down hills in these. So very disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Comfortable hiker
Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2023
Size: 8Color: Steel Grey/English LavenderVerified Purchase
If you have high arches and need a hiker with a wide toe-box, this is a shoe for you. These are the most comfortable hikers I've ever worn. I have had trouble finding a shoe that doesn't make the top of my foot hurt after a long hike. I was a little worried because I have a narrow heel and they felt a little wide in the heel. They have a system for adjusting the tension on your heel and although it still feels a little loose, I've not had any trouble with rubbing or moving on my heel. The strings are a little slippery and I have sometimes had to re-tie them after I get started as they tend to loosen a little bit. They have great stability and support and wash off easily if you end up in mud. Keen makes a quality shoe and I whole-heartedly recommend these.

Keen never disappoints! I purchased these hikers for an upcoming trip to Scotland. I wanted only one pair of hikers that were also waterproof. These hikers are perfect. Great support and very reinforced in the toe area of the shoe.

Pedí un 37 y me han encantado, son súper cómodas, no pesan y tienen muy buen agarre.
Las use para unas vacaciones en Irlanda del norte y los pies nunca se me mojaron y no me dolieron para nada.
Debí haber pedido medio número más para usarlos con calcetines más gordos .
Son ligeros y confortables, así que le daría un 10/10.

This is the second pair of Keen footwear I’ve had. The first pair I’ve had for about 4 years and they have been worn most days to walk my dog. They have never let me down. They were comfortable from the first day and have never let water in. My new pair are, again, comfortably from the first use and look great. Keen will always be my first choice from now on.
