They are a great color and price. The fit is accurate.

I purchased these shoes for an Alaskan adventure. It isn ’ t happening until July but I wanted to break them in. They are a solid shoe. I have not tried out the waterproof feature but I am hoping it is as solid as the shoe seems to be. I had to go to one half size larger than my usual Hoka. So be mindful of that.

5 Anna
I ’ ve been wearing these hiking shoes on every mountain trail I ’ ve tackled, and they ’ ve quickly become the best pair I own. The rugged outsole grips loose rocks and muddy slopes with confidence, while the waterproof membrane keeps my feet dry even when crossing icy streams. Thanks to their snug yet flexible fit, I never feel any hotspots or blisters — even after a full day of uphill climbs. What really surprises me is how well they perform off the trail, too. During my winter commute through the city, they provide excellent insulation and great traction on slippery sidewalks. Plus, their sleek design gets compliments everywhere I go. If you ’ re looking for one shoe that can handle both alpine adventures and cold- weather urban wear, this is it!

5 Heidi

5 Anne-Marie
Just got them today and these boots are very comfortable, lightweight and warm. They also look great. I bought them half a size bigger than my usual shoesize in order to be able to wear thick socks and the fit is perfect. They seem durable and well made, I only wish they made a model that would rise to the middle of my calf.

5 MJ
Just took these on a snowy overnight backpacking trip and they kept my feet toasty warm/dry and I had no issues breaking them in. Traction was also surprisingly good in the snow. Only downside is the sizing- I ’ m a 6. 5 or 7 in all other Merrell boots but had to get a 7. 5 in these. Glad I tried them on beforehand because the 7 would have been too small. For reference I have average width feet

[ I live in Vermont where there are many dirt roads. My daily walk is so much more comfortable with these shoes now. Lots of grip on gravel roads, nice wide toe box and very comfortable in the heels.

4 Lisa H.
[ This Keen Targhee Apex is a comfortable shoe! One of the first things I noticed is how quiet the outsole and midsole were when walking around the store on carpet and cement. They 've since been on a dusty hike and a rainy road- to- trail hike. Nice cushioning, stability, and no dust nor water got inside the shoes. Since these shoes are nearly white you can see that some dirt has stayed in the crease on the forefooot even after being hosed off.( Again, no water got inside.) Fit wise, these have a neutral insole, roomier toebox, and wider heel. To keep my foot from sliding forward and to have a better fit for my heel I will add Superfeet insoles. This shoe runs true to size so I went up 1/2 a size to allow for swelling on longer and hot hikes. Nice shoe. I look forward to seeing how it feels after putting more miles on it.

4 Juls
This was my first pair of hikers. I love Keen shoes, so decided to try the Targhee Apex in the Abby stone/birch color. They were on sale for 25 percent off, which was a good price. They are light weight and cute, not clunky looking. The color is cute and not something everyone is wearing. However, I have a lazy baby toe, so need a little more room in the toe box. Unfortunately, I will have to send them back because of this.

The grip left me feeling secure, even at spots that were a little rugged or slick. They even had me running for a bit, thought running downhill towards the end I noticed they were slightly big, so I ’ ll just wear thicker socks next time. Great deal!

[ I honestly can not believe that I got these amazing sneakers for free through Influenster. My husband has been a client of this brand for years and I was stoked when I received my sneakers. My husband and I love hiking, and it is very important to me to have ankle support since I have twisted my ankle in the past. These shoes are extremely comfortable, very light weight, and is strong. I highly recommend them. They are also great for the winter, they are warm, comfy, and not slippery. Thank you so much influencer and Keen for sending this pair of great sneakers to me.

5 ab108
[ I am obsessed with these boots. They are so cute and I adore the pink accent. Sometimes hiking boots don ’ t look cute so I love that these do. They are also actually amazing and practical for hiking. The material is such great quality. I didn ’ t feel like I was slipping on any rocks and they kept my feet and socks dry.

5 lindzec
[ I am not a huge avid hiker. I do light to moderate hiking. The shoes are comfortable and feel durable. Has good traction for minor rock scaling. Would recommend.

[ The quality of this shoes are exceptional! Living in Washington state we go for a lot of hikes and the majority of time is raining. Keen keeps my feet dry and warm while giving me comfort to finish the course. It has anti odor in it so points for that. It is conscious about the environment and durable. If you need comfort and durability pleade get those!

They were a gift for my daughter, she was so excited!

I 've taken these boots on multiple 10+ mile hikes now and can say I absolutely love them. They 're very comfortable in steep terrain or for long scrambles. I 've worn them in snow, rain, and hail and can say they 're definitely waterproof! Everyone is different when it comes to boots but Ive had Merrell hiking shoes and sandals and I know Merrells fit my feet well. These boots were no exception.

5 Joan
Very comfortable yet it supportive; purchased after a serious ankle sprain for walking trails.

I work outdoors and walk tens of thousands of steps every day in every possible type of weather. I 've tried boots from several other brands/stores, and finally, after hearing me repeatedly complain about said failed footwear, my brother recommended Merrell. I 've only been wearing them for a few weeks, and while my feet have been delightfully dry( yes, they 're 100% waterproof even in standing water), I 'm wary about whether or not they will last as another brand or two also managed to keep themselves together for a few short months before disintegrating miserably and proving themselves not worth my money. So, while I 'm cautiously optimistic that my Merrells will outlast their competitors, I can confidently say that these are unequivocally the most lightweight, comfy and waterproof boot I have tried. Did n't even give me blisters as they broke in! All around, I 'm in love with the boots and am just desperately hoping their longevity is as impressive as their first impression.

5 kelseyo0207_999309
[ These are the most comfortable hiking shoes I have ever worn. They are durable and keep your feet dry. The traction is amazing as you can walk in the rain and not lose traction as well as walk on rocks and still keep traction. The fit is accurate as well. I am a 7- 7. 5 and ordered a 7. 5 and it fits great especially with thicker socks.

5 melissah203_741258
[ These are beautiful in person and the most comfortable hiking boots I ever worn. They have support for your ankle but plenty of padding for your sole. These fit perfectly.

5 ML
I 've been trying to find good 'intermediate' boots for snowshoeing for over a year. I bought several pairs and returned them all. These are exactly what I was looking for. They are waterproof, warm, and have stiff enough uppers for cinching down snowshoe bindings. They also have great tread and decent edging ability on hard, steep snow when not using snowshoes. They 're much lighter and less expensive than technical mountaineering boots, which were the only other good option I could find.

5 kkelley
Purchased for a trip to New Hampshire in January( coming from Florida). Great so far with keeping my feet warm, real test is in 2 weeks with SNOW!

[ LOVE these boots! I bought them a couple of months prior to leaving for a trek in Bhutan, so I can can wear them in. First hike they were perfect! An immediate good fit, easy to lace, ample toe box for my older feet, love the tab on the back to help pull them on, and waterproof! I waded through a steam to test them out! 100% more than happy with this purchase.

5 Katdcamp
[ Bought my second pair after five years of hiking and wearing out the tread of my first pair. Comfortable although this style seemed a bit heavier than my first pair. They are a supportive and quality boot with no breaking in period required.

5 SolarPaladin
[ I bought these a couple months ago and have used them for shorter hikes( ~2 hours) several times. They are a good weight, but still sturdy and they provide support without feeling too stiff or uncomfortable after a while on the trail.

5 JS461
[ I have found these boots to be extremely comfortable and very supportive. I normally add my own insoles to all boots but didn ’ t need to with these. They are true to size and very well made. The traction on the sole is spaced well. It does not collect excessive mud/etc. I would highly recommend these boots over other popular brands I have had before them.

5 Dweeb
[ I 've worn these only on suburban roads and treadmill so far because of the extreme weather we 've been having but so far( approximately 20 miles total) they have been outstanding. The fit is amazing. I have room in the toe box and the height is just right on my ankle. I ca n't wait to hike on trails this spring.

[ I love the fit and comfort, I had to order the blue ones too! If you stand on your feet most of the day, this is the shoe for you. My back issues disappeared.

5 babz
[ I wore these in Utah doing lots of hikes through Zion, Bryce and Arches. They had very good grips on the rocky terrain and also did well in the sand. They were very comfortable, light weight and airy.

5 lsalsa
[ I bought these because my old Keen boots finally lost their soles and because I wanted something just a bit lower and lighter. They ’ re sturdy, and they ’ re comfy right out of the box( no break in needed). If you have wide feet and/or bunions, these are worth a try! I will say that the heel may be a bit loose if your heel is narrow, but no issues so far for me. I ’ ve already taken them out for some cold weather backpacking and longer trail days, and they ’ re holding up well, no foot pain at the end of the day or anything.

5 quiltermd
[ I purchased these shoes for my daughter. I asked her to evaluate the shoes and she said they are true to size for Keens. Very comfortable after wearing long days. They give her feet the support she needs when being on her feet all day.

5 Hikinginthe603
[ This is probably my 5th or 6th pair of KEENs. The venting makes them a great choice for hikes when water won ’ t be an issue. They took me up a 2700 ’ mountain in the NH Whites right out of the box — no need at all for breaking in. I usually get a size 8 in KEENs but for some reason the 8 felt like I needed a little more room in the toe, especially for going downhill and for sweaty summer feet, so I sized up to 8. 5. Good choice. I love the ample toe box and reinforced rubber on the toe. Even my little bunion is happy.

[ Holy cow, Keen has perfected the hiking shoe!! I love Keen shoes. The hiking shoe is incredible. It ’s like walking on clouds. The shoe itself is thick, I didn ’ t feel any rocks underfoot. It ’s not the lightest shoe ever, but it ’s not heavy for a hiker. Def worth the price.

5 asenae1
[ Perfect hiking shoes. Super comfortable, has a thick, soft sole completely covers the curves of your feet, I tried to walk on slippery rocks and the grip is perfect. It ’s very stylish so you can wear it everyday too. I wear 7 on US size and 38 EU size. I received 7 and the fit is perfect however shoe tag says EU 37. 5 so if you are ordering from Europe you might wan na go half size down.

5 cassiec1
[ These are SO comfortable. They are springy and supportive but also the tread and traction on the bottom is great for gripping and not slipping. I usually wear a 9- 9. 5 and got a 9. 5 and am very happy. I like that there ’s a little extra space since my wool hiking socks are on the thicker side.

5 danb35
[ This pair fits perfectly on my feet, you feel the comfort and support with every step, the design is beautiful, the combination of colors and the traction is very good.

[ After wearing the KEEN Women's 450 Dirt Hiking Shoes on my first hiking trip, I was thoroughly impressed. The shoes provided excellent support and stability on various terrains, from rocky paths to muddy trails. The comfort was remarkable, with no discomfort or blisters, even after a full day of hiking. The traction was superb, giving me confidence on slippery surfaces. Overall, these shoes exceeded my expectations, making my hiking experience enjoyable and worry- free. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and comfortable hiking footwear.

[ My husband loves to hike long distances 20+miles. These shoes have great potential to assist him on his hikes once he breaks them in some. They have great ankle support with laces that adjust all the way up. The sole of the boot has great cushion support and stability and is very comfortable around the foot. The bottom of the shoe has amazing. Traction which will be great for all season elements. They are waterproof and very attractive design. I got the yellow and black pair and they are sharp! The yellow is more of a mustard yellow and the material is very high quality as expected with the Keen brand. I know want a pair for myself.:) Check out this brand if you plan on buying a quality boot!

5 jfrank8622
[ These Keen hiking shoes feel like a hybrid between a hiking boot and a shoe with a great ankle support. The proprietary waterproof liner is really well built and the shoe feels super lightweight and well constructed. A really high- quality product once again from Keen. Great shoes for trails and light off trail use.

5 editap1
[ These boots are awesome! They fit true to size. I have wide feet and they fit super comfortably. They are not tight around my feet, but my feet are not loose in them also. These boots feel like they have a good grip around my ankles and they feel sturdy so I wouldn ’ t hurt my feet/ankles while hiking. I also love the grip on the soles. They ’ re also great boots for walking my 3 dogs and I will get a lot of use both in everyday life and while hiking.

Frequently Asked Questions For Best Rated Women's Hiking Boots

When searching for the best rated women's hiking boots, consider features such as waterproofing, breathability, and traction. A good fit is essential, so look for boots that offer ankle support and cushioning. Additionally, materials like GORE-TEX can enhance comfort and durability, making your hiking experience more enjoyable.

Choosing the right size for women's hiking boots involves measuring your feet accurately and considering the type of socks you plan to wear. It's important to try on boots in the afternoon when your feet are slightly swollen to get a better fit. Make sure there is enough room in the toe box and that your heel is secure without slipping.

Mid women's hiking boots provide additional ankle support and are ideal for rugged terrains, while low hiking boots are lighter and more flexible, making them suitable for day hikes or well-maintained trails. Your choice should depend on the type of hiking you plan to do and the level of support you need. Consider your personal comfort preferences as well.

Waterproof women's hiking boots can be a worthwhile investment, especially if you plan to hike in wet or muddy conditions. They help keep your feet dry and comfortable, reducing the risk of blisters and discomfort. However, if you typically hike in dry climates, you might opt for breathable options instead.

Women's hiking boots are typically made from a combination of leather, synthetic materials, and mesh. Leather offers durability and water resistance, while synthetic materials can provide breathability and lightweight comfort. Mesh panels are often included for ventilation, making them suitable for warmer conditions.

To ensure comfort when wearing women's hiking boots, it's essential to find the right fit and consider the boot's cushioning and support features. Break in your boots gradually before embarking on longer hikes to avoid discomfort. Additionally, wearing moisture-wicking socks can help keep your feet dry and comfortable during your outdoor adventures.
