This is my first pair of Keens and I really like them.  The first day out of the box I wore them 8 hours with total comfort, though I was not hiking.  No blisters or rubbing.  I did follow the sizing recommendation and bought a half size up.  I have a thin heel and wide fore-foot but these boots fit like a glove.  This was not my first color choice but they do look better in person. The quality seems good;  I am looking forward to see how good the traction is when hiking.
