KEENUnisex-Child Targhee Sport Breathable Easy on Lightweight Hiking Shoes

I purchased Keen Targhee hiking shoes for my kiddo last year and I'm back again as little feet become bigger feet. Being a return customer probably says it all, but I prefer Keens and the Targhee's quality is the main reason.The Good:Great colour runs really appeal to the eye and the deep sapphire blue of these Targhees looks great. They don't fade much despite heavy wear, and retain that vibrant tone.The shoe looks good and feels substantial, though not too heavy for kids' feet. Mesh sides help to alleviate the weight and provide breathability at the cost of diminished water resistance. It's a fair compromise. These shoes fit narrower rather than wider, though the fit can easily be adjusted by elastic laces.Keens can take a beating and keep on functioning well. The last pair kiddo wore showed substantial wear on the toes of the soles, but that's to be expected after enduring a northern winter, frequent hiking and running around.These are really suited for light to moderate trail use, and not hardcore hiking.The Bad:The toggle on the adjustable laces broke within two days of purchase. Keen offers no warranty or replacement on broken laces. When reaching out to their help/warranty area, they directed me back to Amazon to buy third party laces. This is pretty annoying, considering they sell outdoor shoes for active lifestyles, the laces are colour-matched, and kids under 12 are not exactly known for being gentle on their shoes. Things happen.

My daughter picked these out for hiking because she loves the teal and purple color combination and I agreed because I know they would be comfortable and durable. They have held up great on various hikes and water play. She even wears them occasionally as a street shoe, making them very versatile. They’re definitely worth the cost! They have held up really well!

Granddaughter loves these hiking shoes sturdy and comfortable

My son loves them. They fit great and are made very well.

Love the look of the shoes. Had to find some hiking shoes for my super girlie daughter that she would approve of. These were perfect! I showed her so many options and these were the ones that she wanted. When we got them she loved them even more in person.The first hike we went with them was a hike we did the week prior in some cheap sneakers, so we really got to compare how they helped her. These ones really gripped the rock and gravel on the trail we went on. The prior weekend she fell multiple times on her bottom because she had no grip. With these shoes, she didn’t slip once. She loves them, and was super excited for each hike afterward. No blisters. They were super comfortable.

My tween daughter wore these everyday on a 30 day hiking trip over multiple different terrain types (forest, red rock, desert, snow) and after that trip, they still look brand new. Easy to put on quick

She wore them when we hiked in ice, snow, and mud. I highly recommend these. I hope she gets a lot of wear out of them. She’s hard on her shoes. She’ll tree climb or skid, jump, and run. These have kept up for all her active choices.

segun mi hijo los siente muy comodos y la punta hace que no se desgasten

We've been buying Keen shoes for our toddler for a few years after it was recommended by our chiropractor because of her weaker ankle when she was young and learning to walk. The ankle support has done wonders for her mobility. Even after her ankle has strengthened and she could technically wear 'regular' shoes, we still opt for Keen. The shoes have a sturdy sole and with our active lifestyle we find that they provide the most traction and support while hiking on rough terrain. The rubber sole that wraps around the toes also prolongs the life of the shoes. Our toddler trips on her own two feet (a lot) and the soles haven't started to tear or pull away all because of this feature. The no-tie design is amazing for hectic mornings and makes it easier for my toddler to put her own shoes on. One of the best features? They're machine washable. This is our third pair of Keen shoes and each time we retire a pair because they are too small, the retire in almost the exact same shape that we purchased them in. They truly hold up to the test of time (and toddler). Well worth the money.

Me agradó el modelo, que es muy cómodo y liviano.

Keen customer, and these shoes fit perfectly on my child's feet! They look great.

Boa qualidade

Got these for my daughter for dog walks and general outdoor stuff. They are holding up well to muddy, dirty environments and my daughter loves them.
