They changed this boot and are now uncomfortable. The sides dig into the side of your ankles and actually feel like they are bruising your ankle. I loved my last pair and repurchased them based on the old ones. I wish I could return them. When laced tightly the eyelets press on your foot and hurt. This is the seventh pair of Keens and they have always been so comfortable out of the box. I will not mail order keens again and will be looking to switch brands next year.

Boots are amazing however they were too small. I wear the same size in a lower cut Keen boot and they fit perfectly. Hated to return them but comfort is a priority in boots.
