Perfect
This is my second pair of these shoes. I bought the first pair in brown and liked them so much I got them in black as well. They're very comfortable and provide great arch support. I do plenty of walking in the city and in rural areas and they feel great in both settings.

Nice basic shoe
Comfortable, good looking all around shoe. Like most Keens, the sizing runs a little large. I typically wear size 10 and went with 9.5 on these, which was perfect. This is a good shoe for people that do alot of standing, but I wouldn't recommend them for intense activity (i.e. hiking).

Another great pair
My fourth pair of Keens - 2nd pair of Finlays. Only shoes I can keep on all day long without my feet getting sore. I wear 13 wide in athletic shoe, but the normal 13 in Keen fits me fine - plenty of room in toe box. Not a cutting edge style, but casual enough for most everyone. First pair of Finlays a year old and still have great support and fit and finish. Highly recommended.

Good, comfortable but clunky!
Good shoes overall . Design/style is a bit dated, but they fit my feet well (DD size) although they are not quite as broad as other Keens. They are perfect for the winter when I cannot wear my sandals!

Great shoes
I really enjoy these shoes, they have a great stylish look to them and as for the comfort they are by far some of the most comfortable shoes that I've purchased in quite some time. I am very pleased with them, I've only had them for a couple of weeks but they are great! I would recommend them to anyone.

Very Stylish
This shoe is very comfortable and stylish. I have problem feet and can wear this all day long without any problem!! The soles are nice and thick and the quality of the stiches are excellent. I will buy another pair!!

stylish yet rugged
love these shoes... they are a little wider than i expected (i run in brooks and asics for a reference, and find salomon and la sportiva narrow). nonetheless, these are great shoes, comfy, and can take a beating when doing light hikes (say up the Chef in Squamish) while still looking good for when you walk into town and want to look decent. i bought these because my girl wanted me to wear nicer shoes so this was a good compromise.

Satisfied customer
I chose Finlays because I wanted something that combined durability with a somewhat quiet style (to match my personality, I suppose). I was not disappointed. Although some have said that this shoe runs large, I found that it's a good thing for me. I think my feet are a little wide to begin with, and I sometimes have trouble finding a shoe that has a suitable toe box to go with the length of the shoe. I decided to order my usual size (11.5). Happily, the Finlay has a generous toe space that's very comfortable for me, and I think it will work out well when the colder weather returns and I switch back to a heavier sock.

Great on the second go around
Ordered and got quick service from Altrec!!! First pair started to get that telling gap where your foot/toes crease on day one. I sent them back and got another pair.
Happy to report that the second pair are going strong and are very comfortable. I also looked at the Keen Austins but the Finlays were more comfortable for my narrow feet. Got similar shoes for the wife and she loves her's as well. Size was true for both.

Nice Shoe, but not my favorite Keen
Over the years I have purchased many pairs of Keen Shoes. Rarely am I disappointed, but the Finlay fell a bit short of my standards. Usually, I am thrilled by the details, stitching and overall look of my Keens. The Finlay is built will less of these detail and is more of a single panel shoe than most Keens. Not a bad shoe, just not my favorite. Returned for a different Keen model.

Very Good Shoe
I am a big fan of Keens in general. I have their sandals and rubber boots and love them. I have very wide feet and these shoes do a great job at giving my feet enough room to breath. This shoe also has very good arch support.

Top 5 Shoe Purchase Ever
I've worn these for over 2 months now, and these Keens are good as new. Extremely comfortable and durable. I expect these shoes to outlast any shoe I've purchased of this type. Great shoes..........

Very Satisfied - Runs Large
I have been a fan of Keen shoes for many years. I found the Finlay model to be one of their more comfortable shoes. This is a great shoe. I am surprized however that their sizing seems to be running a half size larger than what I've always worn from them in the past. I had to size down 1/2 size on this shoe and a Targhee model purchased earlier this year.

These Make My Huge Feet Look Small
These Keen Findlays are a winner. They are a little wider than normal "bum-around" shoes. You might want to consider getting a half size smaller than normal. Super well made and not quite as clunky as some of the other Keen items I have seen. Seems to me like Keen is just getting better and better. Vort.

Keen Finlay - Perfecto
I've been wanting a pair of Keens for sometime. The Finlays fit the bill - a nice looking casual shoe with that rugged feel. I was told Keens ran 1/2 - 1 size small. I ordered up 1/2 size and they fit perfectly. They are especiallly comfortable - wide at the top giving me plenty of room w/ excellent arch support. All around I digg'em and would recommend them as a purchase

Great to wear for teaching
I use these shoes as my everyday school shoes. My feet always feel great even after standing to teach for several hours at a time. Good traction and arch support mean I can use the stairs instead of the elevator. Great all around shoe that lasts for many semesters.

Great Kicks
Sized right, roomy toebox. Feels/appears durable, sturdy. Great casual shoe to tour of the world or make a beer run...better if you can do one-in-the-same

Better than I expected
I was pleasantly surprised by these shoes. Always been a bit of a fan of Merrells but right from the go they were good. I wear orthotics and even without them they felt pretty good with the manufacturer's insoles and it was great as they are removable and so I could slip my own orthotics in. A little light and they scuff some but overall for the price I am very happy. Also glad I read the other reviews. I ordered them a half size smaller than I normally would and they were right on for size.

the best
These are my second pair of keen shoes. I loved my first pair, and it is the same with these. Comfortable from the first time I put them on. I can wear them with shorts, chinos, khakis or with jeans. I have wide feet, and normally have problems finding shoes that fit comfortably. These shoes are perfect for me. I would give them 10 stars if I could. Just make sure you get the right size.

Nice!
Just got these, yesterday, having worn out my last work shoes. Those were Keens, too.
Note: The boxed toes of these shoes are not beaver tails, but they're quite wide: perfect for me because my feet are wide. However, if your feet are narrow, you might consider another shoe.

Very comfortable shoe
I just recently received my Finlays and have been very satisfied to date. I find that they and other Keens run about a half size smaller for me so I ordered one-half size up and they fit great. They are quite comfortable, sturdy, and the toe protector not only keeps my toes safe, it protects the shoe. They are stylish in an understated way and I have already received compliments. More of a casual shoe but work well with jeans and khakis. I highly recommend them.

Runs Large
I must say that I am a big fan of Keen. I like their products and their company. I have several other pairs of Keens that I wear a size 9. A size 9 in these and I was not even close. Both in length and width. I am closer to a 8 or 8.5 in this model. Kinda strange. Other than that these shoes are similar in quality and style to my other Keen's. Just make sure to get the proper size.

decent so far
Had them about a week, made my feet sore for a few days at first, but my feet are getting used to them now and they feel ok. I'm on my feet all day at work and now they feel better than the cheaper shoes I had before.

I spend a lot of time on my feet - these shoes are extremely comfortable and supportive.

Great shoe
My job requires me to be active on my feet most of the day while still looking professional. These shoes provide good comfort, support, and have done well to date with the rigors of my workplace. My only complaint is that these shoes do tend to run a bit big and the insoles provided were uncomfortable on my arch. I was able to easily correct both problems though by changing the lacing and using a shoe insert. I would recommend these shoes and buy them again.

Great buying service and great product
These shoes were the best value I found and worth the price.

slightly larger than other keen
I've had 6 pairs of keen shoes. The finlay seem to fit a bit larger than any of the others. That along with their having a less securing 5 hole lace system,as apposed to the typical keen 6 hole system,would make me recommend the austin over the finlay. But,they are still quality keen shoes.
