Keen Targhee IV WP Men's Hiking Shoes - Bison/Black

Trails throw mud, puddles, and loose rock at your feet—most hiking shoes either soak through or leave you slipping. The Keen Targhee IV WP keeps you moving with a waterproof-breathable KEEN.DRY membrane and a 4mm multi-directional lug outsole that grips everything from wet roots to scree. Built on Keen's Original Fit, it gives your toes room to spread while the ESS shank and compression-molded EVA midsole support every step. Premium LWG-certified leather and performance mesh handle abrasion, and the KEEN.FUSION rubber toe cap shrugs off rock strikes. PFC-free water repellency and Eco Anti-Odor keep things fresh and responsible. Whether you're on a day hike or a weekend backpacking trip, these shoes are ready for all-terrain action.

Tips

For the best fit, try on hiking shoes with the socks you plan to wear on the trail. Allow a thumb's width of space in the toe box to prevent bruising on descents. After wet hikes, remove the footbed and let shoes air dry away from direct heat to preserve the waterproof membrane.
