from Washington, DC on 10/29/2008
I love this shoe. I divide my time between Washington DC and Telluride CO, and always find myself gravitating toward shoes that work well in Colorado but look out of place or unfashionable in DC. The Sienna Mary Jane isn't nearly as clunky looking as a lot of Keens, so it's much easier to use for city wear. The tan color I got has little contrast between the sole and the rest of the shoe, which I think makes the shoe look sleeker (as much as it's posssible for any Keen to look sleek!) I wanted a shoe I could use with jeans to knock around in or walk my dogs, but also wear to work with nicer twill pants, for instance. I've had 7 or 8 pairs of Keens, and it's probably the most versatile among them. The only possible criticism is that the sole doesn't have quite as much padding as some other Keens, but the toe box is wide enough to comfortably fit a thin gel innersole under the one that comes with the shoes, or to switch out and use with orthotics. The elastic strap fit just about right for me - tight enough to do some good, but not at all binding. As far as arch support goes, I'd rate it somewhere in the middle, but again, there's enough room for orthotics and the strap keeps the shoe from slipping. The shoe might be too low-cut for the dead of winter, but for any other conditions it's pretty much ideal. I plan to order another pair.

These are very cute but pretty expensive given their lack of support. Great shoe if you put in your own good insole. I have flat feet, so these are not as comfy as other Keens with the wonderful insoles.
from Northern Virginia on 10/28/2008
I am on my feet all day teaching, and these shoes are like bedroom slippers. I love them and am buying every color! Also... they look adorable and I get lots of compliments when I am wearing them.
from West Virginia on 10/21/2008
Very comfortable yet stylish. Wear them all the time!
from Mapleton, Maine on 10/20/2008
This is a great casual shoe for everyday wear. I initially ordered my standard shoe size, but the length was too short. I ordered a half size up and they fit perfectly. These are my first pair of Keen shoes and I am very happy with them.
from Concord, CA on 10/17/2008
Comfortable, easy to wear. The only down side for me: I have a hgih arch, so after 6-8 hours, the band gets a little tight. But I love the color and overall it's very comfortable.
from Charlottesville, VA on 10/16/2008
These are very comfortable for walking long distances in a city atmosphere and go with lots of wardrobe choices...I bought them for Paris and am looking forward to wearing them there in a few weeks...While breaking them in I made the mistake of wearing them without socks and this caused a large blister on my right pinky toe, but since then I have worn them with socks on multiple walks in the city and had no trouble...
from Pikesville,MD on 10/14/2008
Ihave bad feet so these shoes are so comfortable. They fit well and I enjoy wearing them almost every day. Before owning these shoes I tried to change my shoes everyday. I have to say that these shoes aee perfect for me.
from Boise, ID on 10/6/2008
This is a super cute shoe, but it was uncomfortable. The front was akward fitting on my toes. Also, the sole did not have much cushion or support- it felt like a shoe you would get from Payless.
from Chicago, IL on 9/26/2008
I love these shoes! The color is a refreshing change. I wear them all the time—without socks is best, so they’re mostly a warm-weather shoe.
from Seattle, WA on 9/18/2008
I get so many compliments on how cute these Mary Janes are. Love them.
from oklahoma city, OK on 9/17/2008
These shoes are so cute. I wish I could own them in every color. They are so easy to slip on and are great for any kind of weather.
from Erlanger, KY on 9/6/2008
I use these shoes for every day wear. They are so comfy! I would recommend them to anyone. A friend of mine and I keep buying Keens because they hold up so well. We always get compliments on them!
This shoe is great for casual everyday wear. I bought them in the bright green color, and they are my new favorite shoes! I have found myself trying to adjust my wardrobe so that I can wear them every day (the color makes this a bit difficult...). They were comfortable right away, and are equally comfortable all day with or without socks. Perfect for fall, when the weather can change throughout the day. If I could afford it, I would buy another pair in black. They are probably not as great for hiking or really long walks, but my feet have been comfortable all day when I wear them.
from Asheville, NC on 9/1/2008
I love these shoes! I wear them to work almost everyday! I wish I had a pair in every color! They are flexible and absolutely comfortable! I would buy keens again if they feel like these!
from Wisconsin on 8/21/2008
I was a little reluctant to try this Keen because I have the ballet Siena which fits poorly. This one, however, is so much more comfortable, especially in the toe. It is a great shoe.
from Minneapolis, MN on 8/20/2008
I would love to buy these in another color now! So comfy!
I just got them today and I already love them! They feel true to size, dispite what I read on other reviews. I plan to wear them with jeans and shorts. They are super cute on. Also when I noticed they were marked 20% off after I bought them, they refunded the difference to me. Pretty cool!
from Kansas City, MO on 7/19/2008
This is a super cute and comfy shoe. I love Keens and this shoe works for summer and winter. The rust color goes with everything and you can't beat the easy slip on.
from Seattle on 7/11/2008
I really like this shoe, its really cute and goes with most any outfit I wear. Its comfortable enough for everyday semi-active activity. I would wear something else for a long hike or extensive walk, but this shoe is great for every day stuff and walking short distances (under 8 blocks). I wear them to the office and at job sites. I love that construction dust wipes right off.
from Tenafly NJ on 7/9/2008
cute shoes. I use them or work and casuale events.
from ann arbor MI on 7/8/2008
I bought this for my daughter who is moving to Israel. This is her 2nd pair of Keen's. They are almost indestructible. With her, they'd have to be!
from Ithaca, NY on 7/3/2008
These shoes are perfect for the office, with dresses, shorts, spring wear, and casual wear. They're SO comfortable - they feel like wearing slippers! They are light enough for summer wear, they breathe fairly well with little padding. They don't have as much support as keen hiking shoes, but they are a fancier shoe so that is to be expected. I feel like it is plenty of support - i can walk for miles in these shoes without any problem. Just don't expect to go hiking in these shoes, as they're not waterproof/dirt proof - they're intended for street wear. Great shoes!
from Eureka, Calif. on 6/18/2008
So very comfortabls That I have another pair in another color
from Iowa on 6/16/2008
i wouldn't buy this shoe without trying it on first. i've returned it, and i'm just waiting for my refund!
The Sienna is my seventh pair of Keens, and I'm seriously considering getting another color (I got the mineral blue, which is really turquoise). I love how it's both a mary jane and a slipper--the elastic allows you to just slip it on almost as effortlessly as a flip flop, only better for your feet and cuter. This Keen has a smooth canvas lining, which I think makes it feel cooler on the insides than my Keen Amsterdams.
Not as much arch support as my previous Keens, then again I'm not planning on hiking in these. Besides, the insoles are removable and will accommodate orthotics. Stick with your normal size; no need to size up as with most other Keens--these run true, with room to spare.
from nh on 5/25/2008
These shoes are cute, but I wouldn't recommend them for anything more strenuous than walking from your car to yoga class. I was very disappointed with the almost non-existent support. What little arch support there is seems to be too close to the back of the shoe.
As someone who can do several days of sightseeing in flip flops, I have no idea how others have managed to work in these all day.
from nashville tn on 5/23/2008
I bought this shoe as an everyday shoe & love it. It is a comfy shoe, but I added even more confort with my inserts & now I can wear them all day...
I get tons of compliments. They are too cute.
I wouldn't wear the blue color in the rain though because they will stain..
My work day involves a lot of walking and standing, and from the first time I put these shoes on they have felt great. Two months later and I can't see any wear on them. They dry quickly on rainy days, and they are breathable enough to wear in the summer heat. Also, Keen company uses only leather that is a by product of the meat industry (for any others out there ethically concerned when buying leather shoes.)
from AL on 5/10/2008
These mary janes are so cute and comfortable. They look great with capris, jeans, shorts, anything!
from Chicago, IL on 5/8/2008
Great for a day out or traveling. But when wet my jeans easily stained the heals
from iowa on 5/7/2008
I originally ordered a 7.5, which my shoe size is in between a 7.5 and 8. I had to go with the 8.
from Tulsa, OK on 5/6/2008
These arrived 3 days before I left for Italy and I wore them on the whole trip. Lots of walking and my feet never hurt! Cute with jeans or casual dresses and leggings. Love these shoes!
These shoes are great! I LOVE them! I am a nurse, and believe it or not I wear these to work for 12 hours shifts. They are comfortable and stylish. They feel best when not wearing socks, but I wear them with socks to work and they are fine too. I got so many praises at work for how cute they were that several other nurse will be getting a pair now. These really are great shoes! And, the style is an alternative style that will go with almost anything! Wear them with a skirt to dress them up or throw on jeans and dress them down. LOVE THEM!
After my first pair, I ordered in three more colors.
from boston on 4/16/2008
I got these shoes and they aren't super comfy but I figured if I wore athletic socks. They felt pretty good. We spent an afternoon at [...] and the shoes had no support. My feet were killing me by the end of the day. And to top it off since then I have had sporadic bone pain on the outside of both feet, something I have never had before. They may just turn into back of the closet shoes-a pity cause i paid [$] for them.
from Minnesota on 4/5/2008
I used these on my last vacation. Having to go through the airport and slip off my shoes was a breeze. They are the only shoes I took on this trip. Having to walk for most of the day, I didn't notice my feet as they were very comfortable in these shoes. I highly recommend getting a pair!
from Minneapolis, Mn on 3/21/2008
[...]I have the need for very comfortable and good supportative shoesand this company always has the product in stock .
from Alameda, CA on 3/9/2008
great shoe, but not at all as comfy as most keens. The shoe is narrow and the lining is canvas so it doesn't stretch easily. I have bunions and wide feet (size 7.5), and the shoes were uncomfortable as soon as I put them on. As a shoe that one would typically wear without socks, I didn't feel there was anyway that these would become comfortable for me. But for narrow feet, I'm sure it'd be great.
from Santa Cruz, CA on 2/14/2008
They are great with or without socks. The mineral blue looks more teal/green than I expected.
from Los Angeles, CA on 2/11/2008
Another great casual shoe from Keen! These were comfortable right out of the box, and for a flat, they have great arch support. Like them so much that I'll be purchasing several colors!
