My husband loves the fit of Keen shoes--he has a very high instep and very wide feet, and Keen shoes seem customized for him. These shoes are great if you work in conditions where you're on your feet a lot, and don't know what to expect from your work environment--water, soot, grease, sparks--they handle all of that an d still look great.

Because the footbed is so stable, he doesn't miss the ankle support a more conventional work boot would have. Work boots actually bother his ankles a bit because his bones stick out so much, and these don't rub them. I would highly recommend Keen's if you're on your feet a lot and have high arches, and these in particular if you work in some kind of fabrication setting, like an artist's studio, welding shop, hot glass studio, or kitchen.
