Customer Reviews KEEN Utility Vista Energy ESD (Comp Toe)

I ordered 6.5 but this pair feels like a 7, so I recommend order a half size smaller than your regular size. I normally wears a 7 in other brands. I wore them for 11 hrs at work, I was very happy with these shoes for the first 8 hrs, it has a soft cushion in it and toe protection is great, unfortunately after 8 hrs of wearing them for the first time my heels and little toes were aching. I’m gonna try to use an insole and see if it will help. I recommend not to wear them more than 8 hrs at first. Overall these shoes looks great and I like the color.

These steel toes are super light. No chunky and not heavy. My big toe doesn’t rub up against the steel either. I average 16k steps a day at my manufacturing job, including climbing stairs throughout the day. This is my first day wearing them and my feel don’t feel achy, or tired. My knees don’t hurt. My back doesn’t hurt. I am looking forward to wearing them again tomorrow. The style is really cool. I love the blue and the black. The laces stayed tied too! And on a single knot. ? I’m really happy with these! I just trusted what I know about my feet, and I listened to others opinions of Keen, and I took it from there. So very happy with my decision.

I've been in retail for over 20 yrs and I've gone through all types of shoes that say they are good for standing 8+hours, walking, climbing etc, and they never lived up to the hype, but these shoes OMG, if I had known about these years ago I wouldn't have the leg problems I've accrued over the years. They are definitely worth their weight in gold.

Loved how the shoe fit and wore it for my first shift. All was good until 2 hours in when the bottom of my feet really started to hurt. Assume that I need to break them in or get shoe pads. Interestingly, as soon as I took the shoes off and started walking feet felt better. Wish they had better memory foam on the bottom.

Really like that these shoes are way lighter that other composite toes shoes I’ve purchase. Had to buy insoles for them for some arch support and that seemed to take away some of the room in the tow box. Wish they came in extra wide so I wouldn’t have the rubbing on the big toe. Overall they are comfortable.

The fit is great but the shoes are not comfort for long hours in work place.

Overall good support in shoe with no bottom foot pain or friction. The composite toe on the other hand scrubbed against the tip of my toes making them uncomfortable even though they were a wide. A half size up is definately recommended.

The shoe was the perfect amount of slightly big for a 7-1/2 and will keep me from getting blisters and will accommodate foot swelling in the afternoon. Best shoes ever, no kidding.

The shoe rubs my toes and puts blisters on them. There is not much padding over the carbon toe to protect your foot. The style was nice. They were a little narrow for the wide width

I am flat footed, with bunions. And work 10 hr days these shoes were a God send. Definitely recommend. Also Keens were recommended to me by a friend

These are great shoes. I have worn them everyday to work for 10 months. My feet and legs are not sore after a 10 hour day in these shoes. I tried another brand recently and my feet and legs hurt after my shift. I ended up returning the other brand and going back to the Keens. They are true to size for me, I like the style, and I can't wait to get the red pair.

Comfortable for work in Amazon warehouse. Also comfortable and wide enough with bunions.

This shoe is more rounded so the insert that protects your toes doesn’t rub against my toes while walking. Great fit!! Definitely protections around the toe area and the back of the heal area.

I heard awesome things about this shoe so I had to try it. When I got them in they felt small and kind of bulky compared to the Rebock work. Decided they wasn't for me.

Fits well but I have added an insole for support of my high arches and to give more cushion between my foot and the concrete.

right shoe is tighter than the other one.

Little too heavy. Causes left knee pain to old injury.

The shoes appear to be of a good study quality. I didn’t end up keeping them because there is another brand that I like better. However, they don’t seem uncomfortable and are definitely worthy of a consideration!!

Bought this ESD version because I had the keen vista energy which I like, it's insulated, my feet was never cold in winter, but this ESD version made my toe area painful at the end of the shift, sometimes my ankle became painful at the end of the 11hr shift something I didn't experience with the keen Utility vista energy, the regular version.

These fit great. They don't feel like a work shoe with a steel toe. They feel like my Brooks. They're comfortable, stylish, and feel like a lightweight tennis shoe. I absolutely love them. I wear 8.5 sometimes but I chose size 8 in this style. They were a perfect fit.

Extremely comfortable compared to the other brands I have used. Does not feel heavy and does not look like clown shoes when worn.

Very comfortable to my feet

I wearing this shoes for almost one year it's lightweight, I changed the shoes insoles for one my feet doctor recommended because I had pain in my feet and hips after changed the insoles I worked with not more issues.

Comfortable and light.

Best safety shoes I’ve ever worn. Perfect for wide feet. A bit heavy compared to others, but other than that they feel like regular shoes.
