Wanted a work shoe in "mid - brown" and thought I would try these after reading the reviews. They seem comfortable. They do not have the supprt of the adult Keen shoe but at the price it was worth a shot. Not sure how they will wear compare to some of the other adult tough Keen leathers and supportive soles. We shall see. For your info - size I am am Aus size 7 - which translates normally to 6.5 in Keens and there is more than enough room in these shoes to be comfortable
