As someone who owns a few pair of Keens' shoes I was already a believer in their comfort. They're one of the few shoes I can wear ALL day without discomfort. Pros: - Typical Keen comfort. This counts for a lot! - Versatile. I've been wearing these on hikes where they get wet in rivers and waterfalls, and in totally dry situations. They always perform. Cons: - They are warmer than I expected. Feet get hot in them despite their design. - A slightly more aggressive sole would be good. If you wear these on a shady wet hike and encounter wet roots or logs on the trail, you're going to slip if you step on them. Comparison: I've been a long time wearer of Merrell and Asolo (and other) shoes and boots and while they are great quality footwear, the Keens remain comfortable even after a long day hiking or just exploring towns, etc. on day trips. I've read reviews where some wearers have had problems with parts of the shoe coming unglued. I haven't experienced this with any of my Keens but if I do I will go straight to Keen with it so they can hopefully make the necessary improvements since they are producing a very comfortable, wearable product. I'm participating in a 75 mile, nonstop walk-a-thon in October and plan to do it in a combination of Keen footwear. I have no doubt that they will perform.
