The Ventura is a great basic sneak. Kinda retro, very cool. I love the wider Keen fit. The only negative to the Ventura is that they are a bit heavy...but I would guess that is also why they wear so well.

The shoes arrived on time and ready to work. I love them. They have a little dressedup feel vs regular tennis shoes.

This is my casual weekend shoe. I have the black suede, it's comfortable for all day and cute enough to perk up jeans.

Keen's are a great value for anyone that works on their feet. They are comfortable and look great, and wear well. I find the lace up Keen's run about a 1/2 size bigger than true size. They are my favorite shoes for playing with and chasing small children in!

I love these shoes. I never want to take them off.
from Casa Grande, Az. on 7/9/2008
I have at least 10 pairs of Keen shoes and they all fit & feel the same. I have arthrites in my feet & toes and the roominess of the toe box is great and the arch is perfect. I can wear these shoes all day and my feet don't hurt. It doesn't get much better than that!
from Littleton,CO on 4/14/2008
I have received many wonderful comments on these shoes. I love these shoes and I am very happy that I purchased them.
from New Hope, PA on 4/3/2008
GREAT SHOE THAT HAS DRAWN LOTS OF ENVIOUS COMMENTS! COMFORTABLE, AND VERY HIP. I WEAR THEM WITH ALL TYPES OF CLOTHING AND JEANS.
from Elko, Nevada on 3/24/2008
These shoes are cute , stylish and slip resistant. I bought them for work and play.
from memphis, tn on 3/22/2008
fun and stylish shoes, but with poor support in arch and heel area. difficult to wear for long walks.
from Valdez, AK on 3/21/2008
This is my 4th pair of Keens. I love them!! They are very comfortable right out of the box. I've been wearing them everyday!!
from Sacramento on 3/13/2008
I got these to wear everyday but they don't have the regular "Keen" footbed. This style is completely flat and does not have the anatomical footbed. They are fairly comfortable if I put my orthotic inside but they needed some "breaking in" that the original Keen shoes do not need. The quality is great and I know they will be durable. They also look great and I got lots of compliments. I had to get a whole size smaller than the the original Keen's but overall I do like these shoes they just won't be as comfortable.

I didn't think that I'd miss the padding along the heel that athletic shoes have... but I did. As much as I like the look of these sneakers, I ended up returning them.

Durable and comfortable, a dress "Chuck Taylor"
from midwest on 1/28/2008
I love the look of these shoes! Casual and trendy. The only problem that I see is the insole support. I have to use an insert to add to the arch support.
from Lafayette,CA on 1/26/2008
Great comfortable shoe for being out and about and very cute I like the green color, I would not do any sports or long walking in these because they dont have enough cushion or support.
from Myerstown, PA on 1/1/2008
This is my 4th pair of Keen's. This is my second pair of Ventura sneakers. I bought the canvas for the summer and now the suede for the winter.
They look so cute with a pair of jeans and a sweater. Comfortable enough to wear all day shopping. Onlineshoes.com is fast and has great prices. I will be back for more.....
from Indiana on 12/28/2007
These shoes are so cute. I would really like to buy them in other colors. I am a mom of five and very busy so I especially love shoes that can keep me on-the-run. These shoes do just that. They have very durable soles. They are a bit heavy but once on I don't really notice.
from Palmdale, CA on 12/14/2007
This is the best shoe I have purchased in a long time. I wore these to Disneyland on the first day and couldn't believe how well my feet held up all day on them in these new shoes. If that's not comfort I don't know what is. BUY THESE SHOES.... THEY ROCK!
from Illinois on 12/13/2007
I am totally shocked at how poorly made these shoes are. I wish I would have believed the reviews that I read. I thought that the others were just being picky, but buyer beware. These are not worth paying more for. Not the typical Keen quality. No arch support, no top support. My feet feel like I am wearing clown shoes. Better off buying converse than going with these. Definatly not Keen quality! I would recommend the Bronx over these. I am so totally disappointed! I have many pairs of keen shoes, they are my favorites. This will not be added to the list!
from Seattle, WA on 12/5/2007
I bought a pair of canvas Venturas over the Summer, because they are so darned cute. However, they aren't very supportive and I rarely wear them. I saw the suede version had a more substantial footbed, so, I thought I might give them a try. I wore them around the house for a couple of hours. At the time, they seemed okay, but, when I went to bed that night my arches were throbbing so much I couldn't get to sleep. I decided to return them. I do have plantar fasciitis and need to wear a supportive shoe. I have 2 other pairs of Keens, which work for me. This style, though, I'll have to leave to those of you with healthier feet.
from Fichmond, VA on 12/3/2007
I really like the color and look of these. I have gotten several compliments on the style of the shoe. Keen shoes are great for comfort!
from St. Louis, MO on 12/1/2007
These are great casual week end wear and are so comfortable. Great way to look cute while walking your dogs or walking the mall. This is my second pair of Keens and I would definitely buy more. These came with an additonal pairs of laces in cream so you can change up the look a bit.
from Indianapolis, IN on 12/1/2007
These shoes are comfy right out of the box - adorable with jeans - I'm wearing them all the time. Wish they came in more colors! I'm usually a 7, but I buy Keens in a 7 1/2.
from northern Wyoming on 12/1/2007
I use these shoes every day with jeans and cordoroy pants. They are non-skid also which is important when there is ice on paths.
from New York, NY on 11/30/2007
Really like the shoe. [...]
from Encinitas, CA on 11/29/2007
The Keen sneaker is comfortable & stylish for a sneaker. The suede is nice in the khaki color. It's a nice color switch from basic black or tan/beige, and it's still a neutral color that goes with anything. The bumper toe offers protection without the awkward bulkiness or duck feet look seen on other Keen styles. I wear the shoes for casual wear & walking. I have yet to find anything I don't like about them. I suppose the only downside is the moderate arch support like most sneakers, but the cushion insoles are comfortable. I found the sizing to be true to size. I wear a size 6 1/2 and this shoe in a 6 1/2 fits me perfect.

These shoes are very comfortable and I have gotten comments everywhere I wear them.
from Maine on 10/24/2007
Like all Keen shoes I've worn- comfort as soon as you step in them. Though these have a bit less arch support than say the "Briggs" style, I wore them on an hour walk the first day with no problem. They are a sturdier, more stylish version of Converse, but they do make my feet feel a bit long.
from Davis Ca on 10/21/2007
The shoe is comfortable and stylish. I would buy it again and recommend it to my friends. It is also durable. It is not a hiking shoe and is really just a walk around town shoe, but it is thicker and stronger than the average sneaker.
from Kansas on 10/21/2007
These feel heavy in your hand but light on your feet. They are great in comfort and unique in looks, like all Keens. I teach 2nd grade and the 6th grade students at my school told me they were cool, so I guess they are!

from Memphis, TN on 10/20/2007
I got this shoe mainly for stylishness. It looks just like it does in the picture. Great for casual, everyday wear.
from Tampa, FL on 10/19/2007
These are very cute shoes, and like other Keens, run a half-size smaller than I wear in others - so order 1/2 size up. They are comfortable - not the MOST comfortable Keens I've owned, but still better than other shoes.
from St. Louis, MO on 10/16/2007
This, like all my Keen shoes, are very comfortable. You can wear them and wear them and they still look great. They are very durable and stylish in my opinion. The have lots of great looks to choose from. Keen gets my continued business!
from Memphis, TN on 10/10/2007
Really liked the shoe. It was comfy, but didn't fit my heel. It was cut too high and rubbed.
from Suquamish, WA on 9/28/2007
Great school shoe for my 5th grade daughter. They are durable with good support so parents will be satisfied and "cool enough" for school.
from Laurens, Iowa on 9/24/2007
I love the shoes and they are really comfortable. Would highly recommend them and they look good!
from Salem,OR on 9/21/2007
Very comfortable shoe. I ordered the suede and found that they are about 1/2 size larger than what I normally wear in a Keen shoe. Keens usually are about 1/2 size smaller than your regular shoe size, if you order this don't order, up order your regular size
from Douglas, Ga on 9/2/2007
I wanted a good shoe that looked good. Since I had my ankle fused, I have not been able to wear any good looking shoes that would not hurt my foot. I have found them now. I want to buy all of them. I have not had many options to shoes, so now I have some to choose from.
from Tarrytown, New York on 8/28/2007
Although heavy in weight, they don't feel heavy on your feet. I wore them while on vacation and had no complaints. I llike the color and they are not wide looking on your feet like some Keens.
from Maine on 8/23/2007
I ordered these shoes in the black and the green suede. I love them both. I especially like the look of the suede for the Fall Fashions! Keen did it again, adorable and so cute too!
from Raleigh, NC on 8/23/2007
Fits true to size. Very comfortable!
from San Gabriel, CA on 8/22/2007
For those who are used to wearing Keen Newports, these shoes will feel a bit bigger than your usual size. The shoes look very cute in person and the suede seems pretty durable. They're not quite as comfortable as Keen Newports, mostly because the fit of the shoe is not as close and contoured to the foot, but the sole is supportive and definitely more comfortable than most sneakers of this type. It's a nice touch that Keen included two pairs of laces with this shoe, one pair in black to match the body of the shoe, and one pair in an off-white color.
from New Jersey on 8/16/2007
Very comfortable.
