KEEN Barcelona Mary Jane Shoe - Women's

I was so thrilled to find these Keen Mary Janes online. I have been shopping for a pair of cute and comfy shoes for a trip to New York at the end of June and I loved the reviews from other women who wore them, without breaking in time, while in Europe. If they were comfortable in Europe I would be set for walking around Manhattan. I originally found these MJs at a little boutique in Milwaukee and was able to try them on but in a size that was either a little too small or a little too big, so I went for a 9.5 which was perfect and true to the size I wear. That was one of two good things about these shoes. I am terribly disappointed with the comfort. Arch support is great, which is the second and last good thing about this pair. I am extremely upset with the manufacturing of the inside of the back heel and ankle of the shoe. I wore them one day without socks and the jagged material and stitching ripped my heels to shreds! If you have wide feet they will not enjoy the strap that does not adjust. And my mother said one afternoon while I was wearing them that I look like Pinocchio in them. But she is my mother so take what you can from that detail. Overall I am not excited for these shoes, hopefully I will get them broken in a little more before my trip to NY. In the mean time I will be continuing mission to find a comfortable pair of shoes

Very comfortable shoes, the only thing I would have liked was that the strap would be deplaceable. The strap is fixed with an elastic band. My feet are large and they swell when I walk alot, couldn't change the strap size.

This is my second pair of Keen's. The first pair was the full shoe and I hiked across Ireland in them. Knowing that I loved my hiking shoe, I wanted to try a more casual shoe for work. I ordered the Barcelona in Sahara and have loved them. They took about a day or two to break in but they have been great ever since. I'm looking for a reason to wear them every day. I got a great price on them as well!

Bought this shoes the day before my flight to europe. I wore it everyday from here in the US til I came back. No breaking in period. Never had pressure points or blister. Very good arch support. I never had to use inserts even if I have plantar faciatis. I wore it whole day til night, for 21 days rain or shine. Never had any problem. The best shoes I ever had. Im going to buy another pair.

I wanted a pair of Mary Janes to take to Europe to wear in the evenings. I plan on taking my well broken in Keen's for day shoes. Anyway, I took these out of the box and they felt wonderful. I read that they run a little big and order a size smaller, I did not because I knew that I would be wearing thicker than normal socks. Took a walk for an hour around town non-stop to see how they would feel. No breaking in period. need. Plan to order another pair in a different color.
