This is my second pair of Keen mid hiking boots. The first pair fell apart a few years back, and I decided to go with a different brand. So some years passed and I decided to give Keen another try. 14 months of casual almost daily wear, and they are falling apart too. The sole is peeling away from the boot. The inside material is disintegrating in the heel of the boot.<br />Learned my lesson, no more Keen for me.
