Just received the Keen maryjanes in green. They are beautiful, well made shoes, as are most Keen products. The color of the suede is a gorgeous green. No break in period needed! I have trouble finding comfortable shoes because I have a high arch and a wider foot(not wide enough to buy a wide shoe, but wider than a true medium)in size 11, but Keen's always seem to fit great right out of the box. Even with my high arch they are easy to slip on with the adjustable and elastic strap. No blisters from Keen's! I have never been disappointed in Keen's. I also have their Voyageur hiking shoes (2 pair) and the Newport H2 sandal, all of which are great and comfortable shoes. I highly recommend Keen shoes to anyone looking for comfort and style.
