KEEN UtilityMen's Sparta 2 Low Height Alloy Toe Industrial Work Shoe

I work in a dealership as a Diesel Technician for Ford. I work on this shoes 12 hours a day 5 to 6 days a week. They are nice with pants and shorts too. I tried different type of work shoes, boots, and even the ones from those Instagram adds about indestructible shoes, ( those lasted about 7 months and they suck but they were cheap lol). Bought my first pair of KEEN's on April 2021, that pair lasted me 13 months, although the next pair lasted me 7 months only. I just ordered my third pair, I really hope it can last at least the year. From a scale from 1 to 10 I would give it an 8 on being comfortable, a 7 for slip resistant, (most of the time holds pretty well but there has been a few instances where I slipped but thank god never fell), I'm not sure if its water resistant but i never had a concern where water got through, sometimes I wash parts with a pressure washer and never seems to get water inside. It is not Steel toe but I honestly think it's fine, it is not as heavy as a Steel Toe, feels pretty light and it has saved my toes a few times were a tool or a part fell on my feet. They will start tearing from were your foot bends on the toe part as it wears out, also the no slip part will work less as it wears down, the shoe laces when they get oily they will not hold as well, I had to often stop and tie em up again. Overall one of the best shoes for work out there, at least for my type of work. There you go. Update 11/5 This third pair lasted exactly 9 months. From February to November. This is how they look. They still feel comfortable but it's time for the fourth pair.

After wearing 5 or 6 versions of safety shoes, these are by far the best. My employer pays for other options, but I was glad these were on sale. Really comfortable, size was accurate, I can wear the supplied insoles with my own too, and they feel like I’m wearing regular sneakers. I had heard that kind of talk for other safety shoes (including a few that I’ve worn), but this is the first time that it has been true for me. Unknown brands, Reebok, and New Balance let me down. Keen for the win. Mine are in an obnoxious color, but the price was right and they feel great.

I like these shoes, and they are great for work. My wife loves the color (which is very important). The only thing that I don't like about them is that they are not as breathable as I thought they would be and they make my feet hot.

I have generally used Sketchers work shoes but decided to give Keen a try based on reviews. I purchased Utility Men’s Sparta shoes with alloy toe. I work in industrial setting. First thing I noticed is how light they were compared to Sketchers work shoe with composite toe. Shoes feel very light. I did use another insert in shoe since I have issues with heal pain. Right out of the box very comfortable. Very good oil slip grip. Also wanted EH hazard which these have. Would buy again.

Very light weight .. absolutely appreciating it. Steel and composite toed shoes can be sooo heavy & uncomfortableI bought men’s size wide, but a half size bigger.I wear women’s 11 wide— bought men’s 91/2 wide I took out the insoles and replaced with a popular brand massaging insoles with arch support.working perfectly fine. Fit & feels Great now!I got them on sale , which makes them a value for the money.Certain colors of them and/ or certain sizes of them seem to cost less than others— maybe it’s only sometimes. IDK . But I’m sure glad mine were less costly at the time!Very happy with my purchase! They seem durable so far

I purchased 11 and 1/2 wide but they were too tight in the steel toe area. So I was not able to wear them very long before it got uncomfortable. I would use caution if you feel that they are too tight on your toes because that can cause a bunion. Anyway I decided to cut the steel toes out of them carefully and had to use a pair of snub nose pliers but eventually got them out now they feel great. I will will see if my cuts and prying impacts the long-term longevity of their durability. I know without a doubt Keen makes the most durable sandals I've ever known that last for years and years and years. I just wish they had more wide options available in their sandal selection.

These are very nice and breathable/ comfortable shoes not to menchen very light weight. I've been warring theses for 2 weeks now and am riding two more pairs because when you find something that works they quite making it.😎

I've spent hundreds of dollars trying to find a performance safety shoe like this one, out of the box comfortable and lightweight with good arch support.I am in a hot environment; I take about 8-10,000 steps per day on average on concreate and they are holding together like they should except for the collar padding is showing some signs of use which is typical I've found for people who walk a lot.

Work shoes fit perfect for me at 11.5. I found them very comfortable and light. I wear 11.5 under armour hover running shoe and the fit the same.
