KEEN Utility Men's Vista Energy-mWork Sneakers

I've needed safety/steel toe shoes for work for about a year and a half now and I've gone through 4 pairs. Initially I had the Skecher Canktons and they only lasted for about 4 months before the built in memory foam insole wore completely through on the ball of my foot, until then they were pretty comfortable for the price. Then I used the Caterpillar Brode steel toe, and that got me about 10 months or so, they're pretty comfortable like a heavy skate shoe, but they're basic and there's nothing great about them. After wearing those out the outside of my pinky toe joint started rubbing on the inside of the shoe, basically starting to give me a bunion. Because of this issue I bought the Reebok Sublites and used those for about two weeks before i realized they weren't going to work. Because my foot was already aggravated, the same problem persisted. I don't doubt that had I not had this problem they would have been much better. With all that being said, I was quite disappointed in the Reeboks. The pictures I've added are comparing the Reeboks to the Keens. The Reeboks are basically a basic reebok shoe you'd find at Shoe Carnival with an alloy toe. The worst thing about the shoes are the soles are awful. They're a hard plastic material with no give whatsoever, making walking on concrete just awful. For 100+ i was very surprised at the design. So after this, i forked out the money on Prime day and bought these for 75$ (somehow). I was instantly very impressed and I basically knew they would be great before ever wearing them to work. I did go up half a size and went with wide to ensure i didn't have any issues with the fit. I've now been wearing these to work for over 4 weeks. The most noticeable aspect about these shoes is comfort. These literally might be the most comfortable pair of shoes i own, including casual shoes. The Keen.regen cushioning thing that is advertised is very noticeable imo, and i didn't expect that. As i said, the Reebok soles are hard as a rock, the Keen soles give a shocking amount when you press them. It almost feels like the shoes propel you forward, then soften the impact each step while you walk. The construction of the shoe seems great as well, they're much more sturdy, while the Reeboks are lighter and are maybe more nimble to walk in. I don't review anything on Amazon which is why this is so long, but I wanted to write this review because i think there are alot of people that have similar problems with safety shoes and can't afford to fork out $100+ every 3 weeks for a new pair. I highly recommend these shoes, I'll be permanently buying Keens until/unless i have a negative experience, and i think these are well worth the 125$ retail price. Buy these if you want to avoid foot pain and don't want to waste money on multiple pairs of safety shoes.

Son muy cómodos y ligeros, ideales para un trabajo qué duras muchas horas de pie o caminando, realmente los recomiendo.

Très bel achat, très très confortable. Je recommande. Excellente qualité

Comfortable- no issues with passing ESD everyday at work. Great purchase!

Fits okay but an extremely heavy shoe.
